CONFIGURATION

General Information

Configuring the ALLY PLUS changes the way in which it handles the data stream from the coax host or alternate host before the data is sent to the printer(s) or plotter(s). The configuration option parameters allow the user to change printer output, page formatting, setup of the serial ports, host parameters, transparency modes, etc.

Some of these configuration changes can be made from the front panel. This chapter covers configuration of the ALLY PLUS from either the coax host or alternate host, which is accomplished by sending a print job to it. This is a very powerful feature. It allows system administrators and end users to change the parameters of the ALLY PLUS without leaving their workstations. Whether the configuration changes are made from the front panel, or through the coax host or alternate host data streams, they determine the ALLY PLUS configuration, even after the unit is powered down, until it is configured otherwise.

Under many circumstances, the ALLY PLUS configuration will not have to be modified, because the factory default configuration is appropriate for the most common environments. In some cases, the configuration will have to be altered to match the requirements of the user’s system.

Before changing any of the configuration settings, the user should print a General Configuration Report that will display the current settings. A General Configuration Report can be generated by selecting Mode 5 from the front panel of the ALLY PLUS. A sample report can be found in the Appendix.

The most critical part of configuring the ALLY PLUS is correctly choosing the output settings. If the user’s output device operates in serial mode, refer to Options 41-45 in this section before printing.

Programmable function strings (PFSs) and translate tables are also editable from the coax host or alternate host, although those topics are covered later in this manual.
