Note:

The Craft port defaults to 9600 Baud. When AUTO is selected, pressing Enter or

Return before logon will determine the communication speed (1200

19200 bps) for the

session.

7. Move the cursor to the Craft Port Parity toggle field. Use the space bar to select EVEN,

ODD, or NONE.

8. Move the cursor to the Craft Port Data Bits toggle field. Use the space bar to select 8 or 7.

9. Move the cursor to the Craft Port Stop Bits toggle field. Use the space bar to select 1 or 2.

10. Move the cursor to the Craft Port Flow Control toggle field. Use the space bar to select

XON/XOFF or NONE. Craft Port defaults to NONE.

Note:

Some VT-100 terminal emulation programs for personal computers are not 100%

VT-100 compatible, and irregularities in XON/XOFF flow control implementation may
cause communication problems with the Soneplex MPU. If this occurs, configure the
Flow Control field for the serial port in use to NONE. Before exiting the VT-100
terminal emulation program, log off the Craft Interface.

11. Move the cursor to the Craft Port Keyboard Timeout toggle field. After a specified

period of keyboard inactivity, the user is logged off. Use the space bar to select 1, 5, 10, 15,
30, or 45 minutes, 1 hr, or NONE. The time-out feature is active only after a port is
configured as Craft, and takes effect only after you log off the Craft Interface and then
logon again.

12. Assign the selections by pressing Enter or Return.

13. Repeat Steps 6 through 12 for Port 1/2 and Port 3.

14. If a serial port was defined for TBOS operation, move the cursor to the TBOS Mode toggle

field and select EXPANDED (default) or COMPRESSED.

15. If COMPRESSED TBOS mode was selected in Step 14, move the cursor to the Display 1

Response Address

input field. Set the address for TBOS compressed display 1 to any

number from 0 through 7. The chassis will return TBOS Display 1 data when it receives a
TBOS request for that address.

16. If COMPRESSED TBOS mode was selected in Step 14, move the cursor to the Display 2

Response Address

input field. Set the address for TBOS compressed display 2 to any

number from 0 through 7. The chassis will return TBOS Display 2 data when it receives a
TBOS request for that address.

Note

: The Display 2 Response Address must be different from the Display 1 Response

Address.

17. Assign the selections by pressing Enter or Return.
