Casio IT-2000 installation manual Master I/O Box

Q2

If the Windows3.1 version of FLINK is used, the baud rate setup cannot be modified by changing the DIP switch setting for the RS-232C communication speed on the Satellite I/O Box. Why?

A2

To modify the RS-232C communication speed with the Windows3.1 version of FLINK, it must be started up with the following option. Otherwise, the default value of 9600 bps is automatically used.

Option: /L {baud rate parameter,2,,,,,,, }

9600 for 9600 bps

384K for 38400 bps

115K for 115200 bps

The communication speed can be determined according to the DIP switch setting of the Satellite I/O Box only if the MS-DOS version of FLINK is used.

Q3

If an attempt is made to execute the Upload/Download Utility, a startup error appeared. Why?

A3

This startup error occurs if the COM port is being used by another application.

In addition, if an application that uses the COM port is executed from the DOS window, the COM port is not accessible from other applications until the DOS window has been closed.

Q4

If multiple Satellite I/O Boxes are connected under daisy-chain, can each IT-2000 terminal independently use either the MS-DOS version of FLINK or the Windows3.1 version of FLINK ?

A4

This is not permitted. All IT-2000 terminals must use the same version.

Master I/O Box

Q1

If the Master I/O Box is connected, the SCSI check box in LMWIN cannot be selected. Why?

A1

First turn ON the power to the Master I/O Box, then turn ON the power to the PC. If this order is reversed, the I/O Box cannot be recognized by the system. Or, SCSI IDs may be duplicated. Check this.
