Immediate Data Mode - Immediate data mode is similar
to immediate message mode. The primary difference is
that immediate data mode does not wait for a message
terminating character to send data to the designated
host module. Data is sent to the designated host
module automatically as soon as it is received by any
port on the peripheral communications module.
Command Mode - Reports a single message, all
messages, or all buffered data from specific peripheral
devices upon request from the host computer. Each
message or block of data is preceded by a port
identification code and optional time tag.
The V50/V73/V74/V75/V76/V86/V87 can be placed into
"broadcast" mode where any data received by a V71
host module is sent out all four ports of the selected
module(s) simultaneously.
In addition to the modes of operation, you can select
from the parameters given below. These parameters
are programmed by entering configuration mode from
the host module or service port. You can program all
parameters except the device names from the control
panel. Changes are saved permanently in non-volatile
memory.
