Getting Started
To get your A2400 up and running for an initial check-out, connect the unit
to a power supply and terminal as shown in Figure 1.2. The power supply
can be any dc source from 10 to 30 volts, capable of 1 Watt of power. The
terminal can be any RS-232 dumb terminal set for 300 baud. A computer
configured as a terminal can also be used. Be sure to ground the DEFAULT*
pin.

After checking the connections, power up the A2400. Type the following
command on the terminal:
$1RD
Make sure to use upper case characters for the ‘RD’ (Read Data) command
and terminate the command with a carriage return. The A2400 should reply
with the message:
