the "set address" command (see "Configuration
Settings" later in this chapter for details on how to
assign a new address).
Let's say you want to examine the most recent
target events at both the local checkback module
and a distant module, and you are logged on to
remote #1. To get the most recent event from the
local module, type this and press the ENTER key:
get event 1
At this point your screen should look something
like Figure 16-6, displaying event 1. You could
also type "get event" without indicating a partic-
ular event or range and you'd get the most recent
16 events. (See "Issuing Checkback Commands"
later in this chapter for more details on this
command.)
Now you want to get the most recent event from
the master module, which is across town. First you
need to log onto this distant module. Type this and
press the ENTER key:
logon password>0
Here, "password" is the password stored at the
master. The redirection symbol, ">", tells the
checkback module that you want to redirect this
command to another module, in this case module
"0" (which is always the master). Do not insert
any spaces between the word "password" and
the redirection symbol (>) or between the redi-
rection symbol (>) and the "0".
Note that if the password is disabled at the master,
you could simply type this and press the ENTER
key:
logon>0
Again, type "logon>0" as one word without any
spaces.
Once you have successfully logged on, your
screen displays all the checkback modules you are
logged on to at the top center of your screen,
something like Figure 16-7.
To get the most recent event from the distant
master, you would enter this command and press
the ENTER key:
get event 1>0
As before, the redirection symbol sends this
command to module "0", the master.
During a typical session you might get several
local and distant events, examine distant settings,
and maybe perform a manual checkback test.
16.5.2 Configuration Settings
As noted earlier in this chapter (see "Installation
and Setup"), the Universal Checkback Module
includes six preset factory configurations that you
can select with the module's internal DIP switch.
Your needs, however, may require a somewhat
different setup. You can change the settings to
your own configuration only if the DIP switch is
set to the "CUSTOM" position.
16.5.2.1 Enabling the Custom Settings
Option
To change the DIP switch to the "CUSTOM"
setting, power down the unit and remove the
module from the chassis. Set switches 1 through 3
to the "off" (up) position. (Note that this switch is
only read at power-up; the module ignores any
DIP switch changes once it is running.) Replace
the module and power up the chassis. Then
connect your computer to the module's 9-pin serial
connector on the front panel.
