COMMAND 50: SHARING PORT TIMEOUT

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

COMMAND 50: SHARING PORT TIMEOUT

Selects the time interval that the interface waits for receipt of additional data from the alternate (PC/LAN) host before automatically switching to check for data from the coax host.

VALUE	DESCRIPTION
04	Time interval in
to	number of seconds
63
*08	Factory default is 8
	seconds

NOTES

The interface sends a reset command to the printer and restores the coax host defined format commands (i.e., LPI, PI, MPL, MPP) prior to printing data from the coax host after having printed data from the shared parallel port. Because the printer is being shared between the parallel port and the 3270 host, careful attention should be paid to setting up the PC so that jobs are not automatically terminated because the printer is busy.

This problem may be helped by setting the PC timer “off” by writing “mode 1pt1:,,;” (in case of an LPT1 printer) in DOS.

*Factory-default setting.

Use of the DOS PRINT command or a spooling program for the PC is recommended.

If your printer supports

Intelligent Emulation Switching (IES), make sure the printer’s IES timeout period is less than the command 51 timeout setting.

Example: &%Z50,10 sets the timeout interval to 10 seconds

COMMAND 51: HOST PORT TIMEOUT

Selects the time interval that the interface waits for receipt of additional data from the coax host before automatically switching to check for data from the alternate (PC/LAN) host.

VALUE	DESCRIPTION
04	Time interval in
to	number of seconds
60
*08	Factory default is
	8 seconds

NOTES

The alternate (PC/LAN) host is responsible for sending

any needed format commands required by the printer prior to sending printable data.

If your printer supports

Intelligent Emulation Switching (IES), make sure the printer’s IES timeout period is less than the command 50 timeout setting.
