9. Set the baud rate with the “baud” softkey.
10. Set the timeout period with the “shorter” or “longer” softkey. (Timeout is the length
of time the calibrator waits before aborting the current process after receiving a flow
control command, and is programmable between 0 to 30 seconds. A setting of 0
causes the calibrator to wait forever after receiving a stall command.)
11. Press the “EOL” softkey to set the EOL (End Of Line) character to either CR, LF, or
the string CR LF.
12. Press the “NEXT menu” softkey. The display changes to:

13. This step needs to be done only if you are setting up the interface for remote control
of the calibrator. Press one of the softkeys under “Remote I/F” to set the label to
“Terminal” or “Computer.”
“Terminal” sets the remote port to expect a human operator to be using a terminal
attached to the RS-232C port to control the calibrator. This setting has the same
effect as specifying TERM in the SP_SET remote command parameter string.
“Computer” sets the remote port to expect a computer to be controlling the calibrator
over the RS-232C port. This setting has the same effect as specifying “COMP” in
the SP_SET remote command parameter string.
14. To designate a character or character string as the EOF (End Of File) character, press
the “EOF” softkey. The display changes to:
