1480 Miscellaneous
Normally the 1480 emulator is running with the coax communications active over the
coaxial cable to the mainframe host controller. For instances where the user may want to
change a configuration item such as keyboard type (104 to 122) or mod size (Mod 2 to
Mod 4), this screen provides the ability to make modifications to the emulator without
powering off the 1783 NCT and then powering it back on.
The user may make all the desired menu changes first. Some of the menu items such as
the two mentioned previously only take effect during the initial exchange of data with the
controller.
Restarting the 1480 Emulator
To setup a remote host:
1. Click Setup in the upper left-hand corner of the screen to open the 1480 Setup menu.
2. Click Miscellaneous . The 1480 Miscellaneous screen is shown below.
3. Click Coax Stop .

CAUTION: All data on the 1480 screen will be lost, along with the bridge data transfers
being stopped!
The 1480 screen data is erased and replaced by a large X. The operator symbol is placed
in the status row along with another X. This shows that the communications have been
halted.
5. Click Coax Start .

configuration items with the controller.
