CAUTION:
When units are chained, set all parameters the same on each unit,
and do not exceed 2400 baud.
2.6.2
PARITY:
This will select whether Even or Odd parity will be used for error checking.
This will also allow for
NO
parity check to be used.
2.6.3
CR DELAYsec:
Carriage Return Delay. This parameter allows a delay to be inserted
after a carriage return is sent at the end of a line of text. This delay will prevent further
characters being sent during the time required for the carriage return in a printer
without a built-in buffer.
NOTE:
The
RS232
serial date will have the format of 1 stop bit and 7 data bits
when parity is enabled. When parity is disabled, 8 data bits will be used.

PASSWORD:
is used for
RS232
security. If
PASSWORD
is enabled ("yes"),
unauthorized access to the unit can be prevented. Access must be gained via a
"Logon" procedure. See the
RS232
Entries and printouts in section 7 to set or change
passwords.
2.7.2
SETUP PROTECT:
Setup allows the stored configuration to be protected from
accidental modification. When "yes" is selected and a
STORE
is attempted, the display
will indicate that Setup Protect is enabled; the
STORE
command will be ignored. To
STORE
setups, set this parameter to "no".
NOTE:
When Setup is
PROTECTED
, previously stored setups may be recalled as
normal. Also, parameters may be changed via the front panel controls or
RS232
commands.
