2.At the computer, initialize the serial port to 1200 baud, eight bit ASCII character code, one stop bit, and no parity. Use the following MS-DOS2Qbasic program as an example:

OPEN "COM2;1200,N,8,1" FOR RANDOM AS #1 PRINT #1, "CLOSE 5"

PRINT #1, "CLOSE? " INPUT #1,A$

PRINT A$ END

Calibrating the Switch

No calibration is required.

Maintaining the Switch

Clean the connector ends with a lint-free tissue and alcohol before every mating. See the Cleaning Connectors section.

Clean the internal connectors and the panel-mounted connector bulkheads periodically or when high losses are suspected. The internal connectors can be accessed by removing the connector panel:

1.Remove the retaining screws of the connector panel.

2.Slowly pull the panel out to the full extent of its guide rails (Figure 13).

3.Remove the connectors from the connector bulkheads.

4.Clean the connector ends and the bulkhead mating sleeves with a lint-free tissue and alcohol.

5.Reinstall the connectors into the bulkheads.
