STX KJ   Assign Communication Port  (MCL Command) 
 
This command assigns a communication port for specific use. When activating MCL, all 
ports are assigned to MCL; this command allows changes to that assignment.  
 
Syntax: 
<STX>KJpf<CR>  
 
p 
-  Port ID:  P = Parallel 
  S = Serial (A) 
  U = USB 
  N = Ethernet 
  L = Wireless 
  A = Serial (B) 
 
Where: 
 
f 
-  Flag:   1 = DPL 
 0 = MCL 
 
Sample: 
<STX>KJN1 
 
The sample above forces the Ethernet port to bypass MCL and 
go directly to DPL.
