Making Changes from the Terminal Interface
The Board Configuration menu displays the current board software and hardware
settings. It also allows you to change certain parameters on the board.
This function is affected by the status of the switchpack (DIP switch control)
setting.
When operating in Terminal Mode (the system default) you can make
configuration changes through the terminal menus.
When operating in Switchpack Mode, you can display configuration
parameters using the terminal menus, but any configuration changes must be
made using the switches on the circuit board. Refer to
Making Changes in
Switchpack Mode
on page 4-4.
To access the Board Configuration menu, enter 3 at the Main Menu Command
prompt.
