5.5.3. RS232 Port Configuration Menus
The Port Configuration Menus are used to select options for each
of the APS RS232 ports. Parameters selected via these menus
will stay in effect until the unit is initialized or the /P command
is used to reconfigure the port. After initialization, parameters
will revert to the defaults specified by the SetUp Switches.
To select port parameters, proceed as follows:
1. Access the Command Mode. If the password prompt is
displayed, key in your Supervisor Level Password.
2. Type /P, followed by the number of the port to be
configured, and press [Enter]. For example, to configure
Port 2, type /P 2 [Enter]. The Port Configuration menu
will appear (Figure 5.1).
a) If the /P Command is entered without the port number
(e.g. /P [Enter]), the configuration menu for your
resident port will be displayed.
b) The /P command is only available in the
Supervisor Mode
