below. This sample is for a 1784-KT board:

PATH=C:\ABIC\BIN


[DTL_KT.1]

DEVICE=KT

MEMORY=C800

PROTOCOL=DHPLUS

IRQ=5

STATION=77

NAME=DTL_KT 1

In this file:

① This line identifies the file and prefaces a section of the file used to record

information common to all the communications interface cards on your
system.

PATH line that designates the directory where the INTERCHANGE
server programs are located. This will be the same value for all interface
cards on your system.

Blank line to separate sections and improve readability.

This line identifies the general class of hardware device (in this case a KT
device) and a logical pushwheel identifier of 1. Note: The DL40 Offline
Programming Software assumes that pushwheel 1 is used. Use only
pushwheel 1 when communicating with the DL40 Offline Programming
Software.

DEVICE line that specifies the exact communication interface card used.
Acceptable values include KT, KTX, KL, KT2, or PCMK.

MEMORY line that matches the dip switch settings on the interface card.

PROTOCOL line that identifies the protocol in use.

IRQ line that matches the dip switch settings on the interface card.

⑨ STATION line designates the octal station address on the local

communications link.

NAME is a unique string you define to specify to this configuration.
