8.9 Communication with Terminal Program
Data Terminal
If a VideoJet X40 SN cannot be found in the network or the connection to the network is
interrupted, you can connect a data terminal to the VideoJet X40 SN for initial setup and
setting of important parameters. The data terminal consists of a computer with a terminal
program.
You require a serial transmission cable with a 9-pin Sub-D plug to connect to the computer
and open ends for connection to the terminal block of the VideoJet X40 SN (see Section Pin
Assignment, page 115).
HyperTerminal, a communications accessory included with Microsoft Windows, can be used
as the terminal program.
1. Disconnect the VideoJet X40 SN from the Ethernet network before working with the
terminal program.
2. Connect the serial interface of the VideoJet X40 SN using any available serial interface on
the computer.
Configuring the Terminal
Before the terminal program can communicate with the VideoJet X40 SN, the transmission
parameters must be matched. Make the following settings for the terminal program:
– 19,200 bps
– 8 data bits
– No parity check
–1 stop bit
– No protocol
Command Inputs
After the connection has been established, you must log on to the VideoJet X40 SN to access
the main menu. Other submenus and functions can be accessed using the on-screen
commands.
1. If necessary, turn off the local echo so that entered values are not repeated on the
display.
2. Enter one command at a time.
3. When you have entered a value, such as the IP address, check the characters you have
entered before pressing Enter to transfer the values to the VideoJet X40 SN.
