(parallel) or the RS-232 serial port. These addresses are not part of the standard power-up selections
and
may be modified only by “Changing The RAM,”
as described in the Handler Set-Up Chapter of

Start Test Delay: Address 0097

come to rest in the test site before the contacts close. The delay counts down in HEX, in 1 millisecond
steps.
