3.Run the program DQPPREAD.EXE on the computer that is connected to the CPU Switch’s serial port. Follow the instructions given by the program.

4.Make sure that you are logged onto the CPU Switch as the ADMIN user. From the main selection screen press F1 for More Menus. In the Configuration Menu select Functions. In the Functions menu select Send Data to RS232 port.

5.The CPU Switch should then send the configuration data to your computer. The DQPREAD program will store the data in a file named DQPDATA.CSV that will be created in the same directory that you ran the DQPREAD program from.

Please ensure that you have sufficient rights to write to this directory.

To edit the menu names and configuration settings:

You may open the DQPDATA.CSV using a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel. The format of a typical file is shown below. You will see that the computer names (rows) are tabulated against the user profiles (columns). To grant a user access to a computer, enter the value 1 in the box that is common to the computer’s row and the user’s column. To deny access, leave this box blank. To add extra users, add additional columns (up to 16 users). To add extra computers, add additional rows (up to 512 computers). The ADMIN user will always be granted access to all computers regardless of the values entered.
