Front Panel This feature enables (On) or disables (Off) your ability to make changes in
the configuration or run tests from the front panel display and buttons. To
change the Front Panel feature, highlight Front Panel, and use the Space Bar
to toggle between Off and On.
Permit Select Device
Access From Remote This feature enables (Yes) or disables (No) the capability that allows you to
view and access the local configuration settings from the remote unit.
Unit Number Move the Highlight bar to Unit Number, and enter a number between 1 and
9999. Note: Each unit must be set to a different number to allow remote
communication, and daisy chaining of multiple units. For example, if the
remote unit is set to the same number as the local unit, you will not be able
to access the remote unit.
Unit Name Move the highlight bar to UNIT NAME and enter alphanumeric name of up
to 20 digits. Press Enter when finished.
Soft Serial Number This feature allows you to view the local serial number.
If the remote unit is not software compatible with the soft serial number
feature, the Unit Configuration screen still displays the serial number field
but the information is incorrect. All the other information on the screen (for
example, node number, hardware revision number) is still accurate.
The soft serial number is preserved if you enter a “Reset Entire Node
Database to Factory Defaults” command.
Terminal Baud Rate This feature selects the terminal baud rate. To set or change the baud rate,
move the highlight bar to Terminal Baud Rate, and press the Space Bar to
toggle between the options: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19,200,
and 38,400. (Default - 9600)
Terminal Parity & Bits This feature selects the terminal parity and Bits. To set or change the local
terminal parity and Bits, move the highlight bar to Terminal Parity & Bits,
and press the Space Bar to toggle between the options 7,8, None, Odd,
and Even. (Default - 8 None)
Terminal Stop Bits This feature selects the terminal stop bit requirement. To set or change the
requirement, move the highlight bar to Terminal Stop Bits, and press the
Space Bar to toggle between the options 1, 1.5, or 2. (Default - 2)
Terminal XOn/XOff This allows you to enable or disable the XOn/XOff Flow Control feature.
With the Flow Control feature On, the terminal can request that the unit quit
sending data when its buffers are full. To set or change this feature, move
the highlight bar to Terminal XOn/XOff, and use the Space Bar to select
choice. (Default - On)
