Blank
Defines a 1 to 20 character message that displays on the terminal
prompting you to enter keyboard data or take some other action. The
message always starts at position 1 on the display. The default is
Blank, which means a prompt message is not defined.
This message is displayed when Enable Keyboard Entry is set to
No-Read and a no-read occurs. It is also displayed when Enable
Keyboard Entry is set to No and the host remotely enables the
keyboard for one message using the Display Text Message command.
If this command is sent with a zero length string (no message), the
Default Prompt Message is displayed.
The AUX terminal port is set for configuration operations at the
factory. To enable the AUX terminal for manual data entry (instead
of configuration), use one of the AUX Terminal Selectors.
The AUX Terminal Selectors allow you to switch between
configuration and manual data entry operations using one of two
methods:
•
Internal Selector (jumper on main logic board)
•
External Selector (pin connections on AUX port connector)
Note: Manual data entry and configuration modes are mutually
exclusive.
