Printer sharing mode: Bidirectional.
If your application does not match the factory setup of the Model 24SII DES, you must first reconfigure the Model 24SII DES by entering the configuration mode (see Section 8). For example, if your application calls for printer sharing between more than one printer or if you are sharing a single parallel printer, you must reconfigure the Model 24SII's Port Designation. If your application does match, you may connect all required cables, apply power, and begin using your Model 24SII Data Exchange System.
If your application requires that you reconfigure the Model 24SII DES different from the factory default configuration, determine which parameters must be changed (i.e., baud rate, word size, Port Designation, etc.). All features of the Model 24SII DES are configured one module (four ports) at a time using a serial terminal or PC connected to the master configuration port (Port 1 of Module 1).
The configuration mode of the Model 24SII DES is
For example, if you wish to configure Module 1, you would send the following:
