2. With both indicator and PC powered off, connect the PC serial port to the RS-232 pins on the indicator
serial port.
3. Power up the PC and the indicator. Use the setup switch to place the indicator in setup mode.
4. Start the Revolution program.
Figure 3-1 shows an example of one of the Revolution configuration displays.
Revolution provides online help for each of its configuration displays. Parameter descriptions provided in this
manual for front panel configuration can also be used when configuring the indicator using Revolution: the
interface is different, but the parameters set are the same.
3.1.2 EDP Command Configuration
The EDP command set can be used to configure the indicator using a personal computer, terminal, or remote
keyboard. Like Revolution, EDP command configuration sends commands to the indicator EDP port; unlike
Revolution, EDP commands can be sent using any external device capable of sending ASCII characters over a
serial connection.
EDP commands duplicate the functions available using the indicator front panel and provide some functions not
otherwise available. EDP commands can be used to simulate pressing front panel keys, to configure the indicator,
or to dump lists of parameter settings. See Section 5.0 for more information about using the EDP command set.
