BASE UNIT AND MODULE CONFIGURATION

____________________________________________________________________________

the following procedure to send dynamic configuration commands to the V78 CRM-

1. Select the V78 CRM-1 from a config port by sending a select

sequence which consists of the port select code ($BT - default), the

appropriate unit number followed by a colon (01: to 30: - for

cascaded units only), the desired module number (2 to 16), and a

terminating character for <cr> (0D Hex). For example, to select a

V78 CRM-1 Module installed as Module 15 of a non-cascaded unit

using the default port select code, send $BT15<cr>.

2. Once the V78 CRM-1 is selected, it enters Command Mode and

allows you to send dynamic configuration commands. The V78

CRM-1 configuration commands begin with two capital letters

designating the specific command and are terminated with <cr>.

Most configuration commands require a number between the

command letters and <cr>. This number represents the desired

configuration parameter.

3. After you have sent the desired configuration command(s) to the

V78 CRM-1 module, you may disconnect by sending $BT<cr>.

You may disconnect from the V78 CRM-1 and select a different

module or the base unit by sending $BTn<cr>.

NOTE: Multiple configuration commands may be sent while the V78

CRM-1 is in command mode. Each command should be terminated with

<cr>. For example:

RM1<cr>TT2<cr>
