6287 ULTRA User’s Manual

Setting these switches and pressing the RESET button or powering up the ULTRA will determine whether the ULTRA will operate normally, or whether it can be configured by sending a command sequence from the coax host, from the ULTRA front panel or from an alternate host.

With all three switches in the ON (down) position, a dump of the alternate host data stream can be sent to the printer after pressing the RESET button on the ULTRA front panel.

A translate table report can be sent to the printer by pressing the RESET and CANCEL buttons when dip switch B7 is in the ON (down) position.
