Reset Commands

1.1.1 Description

The Reset command is used to reinitialize the Summagrid IV system. After receiving
a Reset command, the Summagrid IV beeps and sets the communications protocol,
report format and other features to match the DIP switch settings. A second
command, Change Reset Character, allows the user to change the reset character.

1.1.2 When to Use

The tablet is reset every time it is turned on. Many applications also reset the tablet
to meet their specific configuration requirements. Use Reset in the following
situations:

Reset: Use to reset the Summagrid IV communications protocol, report format and
other features to match the DIP switch settings. The tablet will default to these
settings when powered up.

Change Reset Character: Command is used to prevent an application from resetting
