Considerations
The default value for HIGHPIN is "ON" because HP expects that no one would ever
want a line handler to run at low pin. However, if you want to change this value to
"OFF" you must do so explicitly by issuing this commands to SCF:
1-> abort line $lh01
2-> stop device $zzwan.#lh01
3-> alter device $zzwan.#lh01, highpin off
4-> start device $zzwan.#lh01
5-> start line $lh01
Note that in Step 1, you must stop the line to stop the device, and in Step 2, you must
stop the device to alter the device.
