By responding to the Enter Request: message at the end of the main configuration menu with "2" (Set Serial Port Configuration), you may change the serial configuration of each port (i.e. baud rate, word size, stop bits, parity, and XON/XOFF). Each port may be configured individually. This allows Print Master to translate for devices using different configurations.
You may also assign or change the Logical Name for each port. Logical names are simply an aid to identifying port assignment; they have no other function.
Print Master will respond with:
Enter Port Number (1 to 6), hit return:
Type the desired port number followed by <ENTER>. For example, if you type "5" and <ENTER>, Print Master will respond with the current status of Port 5 and a menu of the available options:
