This section covers the communication port parameters that are available

with the control. You use communication parameters to let the control

communicate with peripheral devices.

The control has default parameters permanently stored in memory for a

number of peripheral devices. These devices are listed in Table 9.A and

are selected by the DEVICE parameter. You can also modify the default

parameter separately for each device.

This section explains how to change communication parameter values. A

description of each of the parameters is presented on page 9-3.
