Multi–Platform Interface Feature Operation Guide
Configuring MPI
To configure the Multi–Platform Interface
Feature, you use the twelve (12) dip
switches and the rotary switch located on
the Interface I/O (See
Figure 1
).
The MPI is configured differently when
connected with twinax or coax cabling. You
must know whether you are attaching via
twinax or coax.
important
The MPI is set to coax or twinax
communications depending upon which
cable is attached to the MPI. The default
value is Twinax. If the coax BNC adapter
cable, part number 08H7968, is attached to
the MPI, then coax is the default. If the
twinax auto-termination cable, part number
14H5335, is attached to the MPI, twinax is
the default. Therefore, if you want to
configure the MPI for coax, the coax BNC
adapter cable must be attached to the MPI
The dip switches allow you to select the
emulation of the printer, character sets, IGP
options, etc. If you do not know the type of
printer to be emulated, consult your Data
Processing department.
The rotary address switch is used to select
the coax buffer size or twinax address. For
both coax and twinax it is used to select
diagnostics.
Table 1
and
Table 2
show the different
configurations possible. The selected value
is indicated, as shown on the Diagnostic
Test 7 Printout, by '=>>'.
To get a printout of the current interface
configuration, run Diagnostic 7. See the
section starting on page 48 for complete
details.
