You will also need to change the serial port configuration of your PC's

com port to match that of the Print Master. If using the Print Master's

factory default serial configuration, this is accomplished via the DOS

command

C:>MODE COMy: 9600, N, 8,1,P

where y is the number

of the appropriate com port. This command should be part of your

AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Alternatively, you may use the SMODE.EXE

utility to operate at speeds greater than 9600 bps.

NOTE:

All commands shown in bold print above and on the previous

page should be located in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file after the PATH

command and before any DOS shell commands. You should use

DOS EDLIN or EDIT to modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Please

refer to your DOS documentation for instructions on EDLIN or EDIT.

As an alternative, you may use the non-document mode of a word

processing package such as Word Perfect to edit your

AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

EXAMPLE: Suppose you are connecting your PC's COM1 port to

Print Master using factory default serial parameters and you intend to

use the RAMEXEC hot key software which has been copied to a

subdirectory call BAYTECH. Your AUTOEXEC.BAT file would need

to contain the following commands:

PATH=C:\...;C:\BAYTECH

MODE LPT1:=COM1:

MODE COM1: 9600,N,8,1,P

RAMEXEC

The vertical dots before the PATH command and after the RAMEXEC

command represent other commands that may be part of your

AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The horizontal dots shown in the PATH

command represent other subdirectories that may be part of the

PATH command.
