Problems While Configuring the Terminal (continued)
Problem Solution
You are configuring the serial port and see
this error message when exiting the
Configuration Menu:
Serial port configuration
error.
SOM cannot equal EOM.
Configuration was not updated.
SOM cannot equal the same value that is set for EOM. You cannot set
SOM to any of these values: AFF (ACK), DLE, NEG (NAK), Poll,
RES (EOT), REQ (ENQ), SEL, XOFF, or XON. You need to change
the value of SOM. Choose Serial Port from the Communications Menu.
For help, see Start of Message (SOM) in Chapter 6, “Configuration
Command Reference, in the 2400 Family system manual.
You are configuring the serial port and see
this error message when exiting the
Configuration Menu:
Serial port configuration
error. DLE, XON, XOFF are not
valid values for either SOM or
EOM.
Configuration was not updated.
EOM or SOM cannot be set to any of these values: AFF (ACK), DLE,
NEG (NAK), Poll, RES (EOT), REQ (ENQ), SEL, XOFF, or XON.
You must change the value of EOM or SOM. Choose Serial Port from
the Communications Menu.
For help, see End of Message (EOM) or Start of Message (SOM)

EOM #1 cannot equal EOM #2.
Configuration was not updated.
EOM can be one or two ASCII characters, but the value for the first
character cannot be the same as the value for the second character.
Also, EOM cannot be set to any of these values: AFF (ACK), DLE,
NEG (NAK), Poll, RES (EOT), REQ (ENQ), SEL, XOFF, or XON.
You must change the value of EOM #1 or #2. Choose Serial Port from
the Communications Menu.

SOM is set. You must also set
EOM.
Configuration was not updated.
You must configure a value for EOM before you can set SOM or
disable SOM. You need to change the value of SOM. Choose Serial
Port from the Communications Menu.
Configurable Serial Port (CSP) protocol uses EOM to determine the
serial communications mode. When EOM is disabled, the terminal
communicates in Character mode. When EOM is enabled, the terminal
communicates in Frame mode.
To use Frame mode, you need to set EOM first. Next, configure
Handshake, Configuration Commands Via Serial Port, LRC, SOM, and
then Poll. To use Character mode, you need to disable these same
parameters in reverse order. For help, see Using Serial
Communications on the Terminal in Chapter 3.
