The command line for HIBCNFG is the following:
HIBCNFG {/baudrate} {/?} {filename}
All of the command line parameters are optional.
/baudrate
Valid options are /9600, /14400, /19200, /38400. This command sets the baud
rate of the PC’s COM port. This command is optional, and if not specified,
MCNRCD uses a default baud rate of 38400.
If the HIB is connected directly to the PC COM port, the /baudrate specified
must match the baud rate setting on the HIB’s OPTION A switches 1, 2, and 3.
If the HIB is connected to a modem (for remote operation), the /baudrate
specified must match the DTE speed of the modem being used.

Displays help information about HIBCNFG
filename
The file that contains the modem initialization string to be programmed into the
HIB. If no filename is specified, HIBCNFG uses the default filename
MODMINIT.HIB. If a filename is specified, but no extension is provided,
HIBCNFG appends a “.HIB” extension to the specified filename.
The initialization string contained in the file must follow a set format. Special
characters can be inserted into the initialization string to provide delays between
characters or for sending a carriage return to the modem. These special characters
are the following:
•
'^' to insert a 500 msec delay into the string
•
'\' to insert a <cr> into the string
•
'\\' to insert a single '\' into the string
HIBCNFG looks through the file for a special marker that indicates where the
modem initialization string is located. This marker is “INIT=“ and it must begin
in column 1 of the line. Everything that follows "INIT=" is programmed into the
HIB. If the “INIT=“ marker is not found, HIBCNFG will return an error message.
The maximum length of the initialization string is 50 characters. Any text beyond
50 characters is truncated from the initialization string.
