2.6 SETTING THE BAUD RATE
If the RS16x16HB is to be controlled through its RS232 port, it is important to
set the correct baud rate. One of four baud rates may be selected using positions 1
and 2 of the programming switch located on the rear panel of the RS16x16HB. Set
the switches as follows:
BAUD RATE
19200
1200
2400
9600
SWITCH 1
ON
OFF

OFF
SWITCH 2

OFF
All Baud Rates are 8 bit, no parity, one stop bit. Switches are ON when
pushed up (as viewed from the back of the panel)
The switches are read by the microprocessor only at power-up; for switch
configuration changes to take effect, cycle the power input to the RS16x16HB.

Switches 6-8 should always be off.
2.7 ANSWERBACK MODES
The user may choose between two modes of answerback: verbose and
nonverbose. Select the mode using position 3 of the programming switch located
on the rear panel of the RS16x16HB.
Position 3 ON is verbose, while position 3 OFF is nonverbose.
The switches are read by the microprocessor only at power up; for switch
configuration changes to take effect, cycle the power input to the RS16x16HB.
In the verbose mode, each time a routing command is sent, the routing
map will be reported on the RS232 line.

In the nonverbose mode, only the word DONE will be reported. In either
mode, an incorrect or meaningless command will cause the word ERROR to be
reported.
