Print Configuration/Test Pattern Function

Holding both switches down at the end of test 4 causes the unit to print its configuration out to port O, as shown in TABLE 8. Holding both switches down a second time at the end of test 4 causes a print exerciser to run, which sends a repeating test pattern out to the device on port O. To stop the exerciser, press both switches again. The exerciser may be started and stopped again the same way. The exerciser follows the protocol assigned to port O.
