Software service changes

Once the QPC841 QSDI card has been installed in the system, the system software needs to be configured to recognize it. This is done using the Configuration Record program LD 17. Instructions for running the Configuration Record program are found in Software Input/Output: Administration (553-3001-311).

Some of the prompts that are commonly used when running the Configuration Record program LD 17 are shown in LD 17 – Serial port configuration parameters. These parameters must be set for each port that is being used.
