By responding to the Enter Request: message at the end of the main
configuration menu (see
Section 6.1
) with "5" (Program Port Select
Code), you may change the Port Select Code to a user-defined code.
This Port Select Code consists of any character string from 1 to 8
ASCII characters. The Model 24H will respond with the following:
Port Select Code is :$SELECT
Enter Port Select Code (Max. 8 characters)
or ENTER for no change :
Type the new Port Select Code. If less than 8 characters are entered,
you must follow entry by striking the
Enter
key. For example, if you
entered #PORT, the Model 24H will respond with:
Port Select Code is :#PORT
Enter Port Select Code (Max. 8 characters)
or ENTER for no change :
NOTE: The Port Select Code should not begin with
Control-T
.
Non-printable characters below 20 HEX (32 Decimal) are acceptable,
but they will not appear in the Status menu. The port select sequence
has a ten second timer, any incomplete sequence after this timeout
period will be treated as normal data and will be sent to the current
peripheral port.
If no additional change is desired, strike the <ENTER> key to exit. The
Model 24H will save the new Port Select Code permanently in
non-volatile memory and will subsequently power-up with that code in
effect. The Model 24H will now return to the main configuration menu.
