Does the NWSAMD product contain user configurable options and how are they configured?
The NWSAMD board has many user configurable options even in its general application. All configuration is done via RS-232 compatible communications at 9600bps over a 3 conductor interface to a host computer. The NWSAMD product is not host dependant, but IBM PC compatible software is optionally shipped with the product. Any type of host capable of 9600bps RS-232 communications should be able to be used to configure the product. More discrete configuration must be done via user supplied hardware; however, which includes signal level translations and the like. The settings are saved to a non-volatile memory that will retain its memory for 100 plus years without power and will permit at least 10,000 changes.
