Setup using terminal software
Data terminal
You can connect a data terminal to the VideoJet 10 for setup and local control.
The data terminal consists of a computer with terminal software. Use the
configuration cable included in the package supplied to make the connection.
For example, HyperTerminal, a communications utility included with Microsoft
Windows, can be used as the terminal program.
Note
Information on installing and using HyperTerminal can be found in the user
guides or online help for Microsoft Windows.
– Before working with the terminal program, disconnect the VideoJet 10 from the
data network.
– Connect the COM1: RS232/485 Sub-D connector of the VideoJet 10 to an
available serial port on the computer.
Configuring the terminal
To establish communication between the terminal program and the VideoJet 10,
the transmission parameters must be correctly defined. Set the following values
in the terminal program:
] 19,200 Bit/s
] 8 data bits
] No parity check
] 1 stop bit

Command entry
After the connection has been established, you must log on to the VideoJet 10.
You can then access the main menu. You can call up additional submenus and
functions using the on-screen commands.
] If necessary, turn off the local echo so that entered values are not repeated on
the screen display.
