configuration. However, the terminal or computer that you may be
using to configure the Telex Unit may itself require other interface
signals to be present.

The user or Host program must key in (ESC) Z1 to invoke the
configuration facility. On successful entry the user may key in
parameters indicating the required selections.

It is advisable to first key (ESC) A (reset command) in order to ensure
that the previously stored configuration is currently in operation and
that communication has been correctly established. This can be seen
as the Telex Unit will output the message;
“I: RESET” to a reset command.

Note: The use of upper/lower case letters is of great importance when
making changes in unprompted mode otherwise the wrong
configuration change will be made.

Change Default Configuration (ESC) Z[n]
This feature is used to configure the unit into a mode suitable for a
particular installation. Once configured the parameters will remain
stored in non-volatile memory for immediate use after power-on. The
menu may be accessed from a dumb terminal connected to the Host
port or direct from the Host system if this option is possible.

After sending “(ESC) Z” the Host must send either “0” which means
“no prompts” or “1” which means “prompts”.

The following power-up / software reset defaults may be changed:

A) HOST SPEED: 1)9600 2)4800 3)2400 4)1200 5)600 6)300 7)150 8)110 9)50 <4>
