DS72 HOST MODULE OWNER’S MANUAL
DETAILED OPERATION AND CONFIGURATION
<cr>, then $CONFIG followed by <cr>. This will allow access to the configuration menu for that module. Once configuration is complete, type X for “Exit” followed by <cr>. To access the main menu, type the attention character five times.
NOTE: You must exit main menu to send ASCII character string commands.
NOTE: While operating using the ASCII Character String method, consider placing the DS- Series in binary mode.
Binary Mode | If binary data containing the port select code is sent to a module, the DS- | |
| Series may interpret the data as a command to change ports. Binary mode | |
| prevents such an occurrence by placing the | |
| does not look at the data. This provides a reliable binary data transmission. | |
| However, before a connection can be made to another port, the binary | |
| mode must be terminated. |
|
| Place the port in binary mode by sending the port select code, a capital B, | |
| and a carriage return ($BTB). For example, if using the default Port | |
| Select Code ($BT), place Module 2, Port 1 in binary mode by typing | |
| $BT2,1<cr>$BTB<cr>. |
|
Terminate Binary | From the terminal emulation software, send a | BREAK condition |
Mode | command to terminate binary mode. You may | have to consult the |
software users’ manual for the specific BREAK condition command for the emulation software you are using. For example, the BREAK condition command for PROCOMM PLUS is “Alt B.”
NOTE: The break length for emulation software is programmed within that software. The break length for a TELNET session is programmed within the BayTech firmware. This procedure is discussed on page 20.
