REMEMBER!
To leave the Programming
Mode at any time, press
the
Esc
key. Doing so will
return the CP-220A to its
normal operating mode.
Programming changes will
be stored automatically.
The purpose of
PARAMETER 55
is to select, for each of the CP-220A's Line
Cards, which will be in one of the two
FBI Superfast
formats – either the
4x1x2x1
or the
4x3x1
(LAR300) – will be expected by the CP-220A, and
therefore processed at the Central Station. Because the
LAR300
format is no
longer popular, the
4x1x2x1
- which will be referred to as FBI Superfast from
this point on - is the default.
Programming Procedures:
Note that after entering
PARAMETER 55,
[SLOT 1 FBI SUPERFAST]
appears on the display with the [1] flashing. If it is necessary to change the
FBI
format that Slot 1 (or any other slot) will process, take the following
steps:
1. Depress
the key once. The [SUPERFAST] after [FBI] will begin to
flash.
2. If necessary, press the
NEXT
key or the
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
key to
change to the
LAR300
format; after doing so,
Slot 1
will be conditioned
so that incoming
FBI Superfast
messages will be interpreted correctly.
3. Press
the key so that the [1] after [SLOT] flashes again.
4. To change another slot, press the number key of the slot desired (e.g.,
2
); the chosen
Slot Number
and its currently assigned
FBI Superfast
format will be displayed.
5. Repeat the above steps for each
Slot Number
whose interpretation of
the
FBI Superfast
format must be changed.
Default:
As stated, in terms of the
FBI Superfast
format, each Line Card is factory
programmed to expect the
4x1x2x1
version.
Advancing to Next Parameter:
After programming
PARAMETER 55,
press the
N
key to advance to
PARAMETER 56
– the next parameter in
Category A
.
The CP-220A displays the parameter just programmed ([PARAMETER
NUMBER 55]) with its first digit flashing, indicating its request for the next
parameter number.
You can reach
PARAMETER 56
in one of several ways. Press either:
•
5
then
6
, or
•
then
6
, or
• the
key three times
NOTE: When the
is used, the
name
of the next parameter appears
immediately – not its
number.
