Your first step should be to check program settings by pressing the key [F12] (see page 28). Check
and correct the default parameters such as serial port and printer driver. The parameters can be
selected with the cursor keys and modified with the space bar. Section "Program Settings" on page
28 provides a detailed description of the parameters.
You can operate the program with the function keys [F1]-[F12], with a mouse, or with the cursor
keys. The appendix provides a keyboard template that you can cut out and glue onto the keyboard
over the function keys.
Connecting Pro-Master to a PC
To operate the PC Software, you must connect the serial cable with the round 6-pole plug to the
back of Pro-Master and the 9-pole socket to the serial port of your computer. If your computer has a
25-pole serial port, use a serial port adapter. If your computer has multiple serial ports, you must
enter the port number that you use in the program settings (see page 28).
