CONFIGURATION

66 — SCS PTM trigger 2

This option has no effect unless the two-trigger method (see Option #62) is

selected. The default second trigger is 5B, which is an SCS dollar sign ($).

Here are some examples of setting this option:

!ALLY!66=5B;

an SCS dollar sign ($) (default)

!ALLY!66=5F

an SCS logical not (¬) is frequently used

67 — Discard transparency terminator

When the two-trigger pseudo transparency mode is selected (see Option

#62), an invalid character is needed to terminate the sequence (an invalid

character is one outside of the 0-9 and A-F range). When the terminator is

detected by the ALLY PLUS, this option tells it whether to print it or

discard it. Here are the proper programming sequences for this option:

!ALLY!67=00;

print pseudo transparency terminator (default)

!ALLY!67=01;

discard terminator

68 — Specify DSC transparency terminator

This option applies only to DSC data streams. When the two-trigger pseudo

transparency mode is selected (see Option #62), the user normally

terminates pseudo transparency with an invalid character. When this option

is set to 00, any invalid character will terminate pseudo transparency,

including a system NL command. A non-zero value selects a specific

terminator character, and it tells the ALLY PLUS to throw away all other

invalid characters, and to combine only valid pairs for outputting until the

specific terminator is detected.

!ALLY!68=00;

terminate on any invalid character (default)

!ALLY!68=1B;

terminate only on DSC cent sign (¢)
