4.4 Host/PC Download Commands

A/C-7P RO, A/C-7S RO

4.3Setup Software (does not apply to versions after February 1996)

Older versions of the A/C-7 RO included a setup disk. For newer versions (after February 1996), all configuration parameters not already covered through configuration switches can be changed through the host/PC download commands.

NOTE

For a description of the available configuration parameters, refer to the Table 4-11, Host/PC Download Commands.

4.4 Host/PC Download Commands

By sending download commands from the Host/PC to the A/C-7 RO, you can change all configuration parameters not already covered through the configuration switches.

Most Host/PC download commands are placed in a Host/PC document or on the screen. Regardless of whether the incoming print job is a screen print, a spreadsheet, or a word-processing document created on either the host or PC, the A/C-7 RO will recognize the Host/PC download command.

The command itself will not be printed if it was entered correctly. If any part of the command is printed, the A/C-7 RO did not recognize the command because of a problem in the format. Check the syntax of the command and send the command again.

Most Host/PC download commands sent to the A/C-7 RO take effect immediately and stay only in the A/C-7 RO’s active memory. To save the changed configuration beyond a power off, send Host/PC download command Z99,0.

Tip: Save the Host/PC download commands in a separate file. If you need to re-configure the A/C-7 RO at a later time, or if you need to configure more than one A/C-7 RO, just “print” the file containing your Host/PC download commands.

Take the following steps to enter a host download command.
