Communications
The RS-232 Serial communications to the PowerLinc Modem (PLM) are:
Note: each byte sent to the PowerLinc Modem will be echoed back to the host.

LED On Steady PLM detected an external EEPROM for storage of database links.
LED blinks six
times
PLM has not detected an external EEPROM and will use the internal EEPROM of the processor chip.
LED is Off
While being plugged in, the user pressed and held the SET button for 3 seconds causing the PLM to perform
a factory reset. At the conclusion of the reset, the PLM’s LED will operate like one of the two modes above.
