PROTOCOL CONVERTER MODEL A/S-4

6.3 A/S-4 Main Menu

A set of menus are used to configure the A/S-4’s options so that it will operate properly with the particular VDU and host to which it is connected. In order to access these menus, SW9/6 must be in the ON position (see Section 4.5). All options are stored in battery-protected RAM so that they need not be reconfigured in the event of interruption of AC power to the unit.

At the beginning of every A/S-4 menu are the current main three options, the application, VDU and keyboard. The application option informs you of which keyboard layout the A/S-4 will use when running SDLC/SNA.

The A/S-4 Main Menu is shown in Figure 2. This menu coordinates the changing of the many A/S-4 options into main categories, VDU Selection, VDU commands, VDU video commands, keyboard selection, keys on keyboard arrangement, application, application options, printer options and verification of switch settings.
