RS-232 Remote – Pairing and Initial Setup

This guide covers initial pairing and setup of the RS-232 Remote Transmitter (MC-REM-RS232) with a MobileCollect Base Receiver using Extended Setup. It walks through identifying the Base ID, connecting the Remote and selecting communication parameters (including Auto Baud detection) to match the RS-232 device, setting the End-of-Packet character, and pairing the Remote to a specific channel on the Base. Pairing is retained through power cycles, firmware updates, and extended dormancy until manually changed or the unit is factory reset.
