Front-Panel Operating Instructions
SP PARAMETERS
See parameter definitions in Section
SPEED_BPS Select AUTO whenever feasible. In this case, start the communication with three Carriage Returns, to ensure positive identification of terminal data rate.
Note
The automatic baud rate recognition procedure must be repeated after the DTR line in the control port connector had been switched to OFF and then ON again.
DATA | Select the required number of data bits (same as on the |
| terminal). |
PARITY | Select the required parity (same as on the terminal). |
INTERFACE | ∙ Select DCE when directly connected to the control |
| terminal. |
| ∙ Select DTE when connected to a modem (future |
| option). |
Note
The INTERFACE parameter only changes the direction of the interface control (handshaking) signals, but not the functions of the interface pins. Therefore, when connecting to a modem, it is necessary to use a cross cable.
