RS232 Port Configuration Menus

The Port Configuration Menus are used to select options for each of the

APS-8/16M’s RS232 ports. Parameters selected via these menus will stay in

effect until the unit is initialized or the /P command is used to reconfigure the

port. After initialization, parameters will revert to the defaults specified by the

SetUp Switches.
To select port parameters, proceed as follows:
1. Access command mode. If the password prompt is displayed, key in a

password that permits Supervisor Mode.

2. Type

/P, followed by the number of the port to be configured, and press

[Enter]. For example, to configure Port 1, type

/P 1 [Enter]. The Port

Configuration menu will appear as shown in Figure 5.5.
a) If the /P Command is entered without the port number

(e.g.

/P [Enter]), the configuration menu for your resident port

will be displayed.

b) The /P command is only available to passwords that permit access to

Supervisor Mode.
