XTRAEDIT CONFIGURATION

This dialog box enables the user to indicate to which parallel port the

XLI to be configured is connected, either LPT1, LPT2 or LPT3. If the

user is uncertain as to which port the XLI is connected, the user can

select Search, and the program will find the port. If there is more than

one XLI connected to the computer, the user must indicate which one is

to be configured. The Search choice will find the XLI connected to the

lowest numbered port.
Mouse users can simply move the mouse pointer to the appropriate

choice and press the left mouse button, then move the mouse pointer to

OK and press the left mouse button. Select Cancel or click on the Close

button to exit without making any changes.
Keyboard users can use the arrow keys unhk to move among the choices,

and t will enable the user to highlight either OK or Cancel and to select

one or the other by pressing d .
An error message will be displayed if the XLI is either powered down or

disconnected from the designated port. The error must be corrected

before configuration can continue.
After the port has been selected, XTRAEDIT will automatically put the

XLI into Mode F — Configuration Mode. After exiting XTRAEDIT, the

XLI will automatically perform a power-on Reset and return to Mode 0

— Normal Operating Mode.

Using a mouse, standard graphical user interface elements, such as

pull-down menus, can be activated by moving the mouse pointer to the

choice and pressing the left mouse button to select it.
