HP 24SII - Manual (Page 26)


Serial ports power-up from the factory at:
9600 baud rate
8 bit word size
1 stop bit
no parity
XON/XOFF disabled
Printer sharing mode: Bidirectional.
4-Wire/8-Wire Operation (M24SII-V07 high speed
serial module only): 8-wire.
If your application does not match the factory setup of the Model 24SII
DES, you must first reconfigure the Model 24SII DES by entering the
configuration mode (see
Section 8 ). For example, if your application
calls for printer sharing between more than one printer or if you are
sharing a single parallel printer, you must reconfigure the Model
24SII's Port Designation. If your application does match, you may
connect all required cables, apply power, and begin using your Model
24SII Data Exchange System.
  

  
If your application requires that you reconfigure the Model 24SII DES
different from the factory default configuration, determine which
parameters must be changed (i.e., baud rate, word size, Port
Designation, etc.). All features of the Model 24SII DES are configured
one module (four ports) at a time using a serial terminal or PC
connected to the master configuration port (Port 1 of Module 1).
The configuration mode of the Model 24SII DES is menu-driven. The
configuration menus are accessed by sending a three-character
sequence to the master configuration port. The three-character
sequence consists of
Control-T , Capital C, followed by the desired
module number (1 to 6).
For example, if you wish to configure Module 1, you would send the
following: <
Control-T >C1
