Setup CAR Communication dialog box will be displayed:

2. Select the desired port you want to connect to. Do not select the

same port as the film controller.

3. Select the Start Sequence. The Start characters can be >>>, <<<,

@@@ or any printable ASCII character repeated three times. The

Start Sequence can also be set to None, for no Start sequence.

4. Select an End Sequence. The characters E, \, or <EOT> can be
