Software Configuration
The dipswitch setting is designed to ensure a proper installation of the
box. However, it does not cover all the possibilities offered by the
conversion box. To that end, a more application oriented software based
configuration facility, has been implemented.
The software configuration is performed by sending control commands to
the conversion box from the host. There are two types of commands:
• Specific Conversion Box Commands
• Digital ANSI Configuration Command
Note: Software configuration can only be performed with the
conversion box powered on, and connected to the host.
Specific Conversion Box Commands
These commands have been designed to perform additional operations
to ensure the box works in the best manner with the target printer.
You can use the commands to set the following parameters:
• Reset all parameters to factory default
• Select target printer
• Set the time out on serial input port
• Set the time out on parallel output port
• Set input buffer size
• Set image offset
• Set horizontal printing protection
• Set vertical printing protection
• Set font printing protection
• Select device identification
Note: For complete information about the use of these features, refer to
Appendix A - Specific Conversion Box Commands.
