7.2.2. DAS CONFIGURATION VIA TERMINAL EMULATION PROGRAMS
Although Teledyne API recommends the use of APICOM, the DAS can also be
accessed and configured through a terminal emulation program such as
HyperTerminal (see Figure 7-4 for example). It is best to start by downloading
the default DAS configuration, getting familiar with its command structure and
syntax conventions, and then altering a copy of the original file offline before
uploading the new configuration.

See Section for configuration commands and their strict syntax. Commands can
be pasted in from of an existing text file, which was first edited offline and then
uploaded through a specific transfer procedure.
IMPORTANT IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
Whereas the editing, adding and deleting of DAS channels and
parameters of one channel through the front-panel control buttons
can be done without affecting the other channels, uploading a DAS
configuration script to the analyzer through its communication ports
will erase all data, parameters and channels by replacing them with
the new DAS configuration. Backup of data and the original DAS
configuration is advised before attempting any DAS changes.
