2. On the Channel Address (HEX) keypad, click the alphanumeric
characters to specify the last two digits of the hexadecimal
channel address of your host.
3. From the Channel Mode pull-down menu, select the channel
mode for your system. The channel modes specify the
operation of the channel signals, determine the data speed, and
specify whether the channel interface mode is interlock or data
stream.
Single Tag Single-tag interlock mode. This is the basic
channel transfer mode. It is the slowest method of data
transfer. Select this mode when no other transfer mode is
available on the host.
High Speed High-speed transfer mode. Although it
maintains a single-tag interlock mode, this mode provides a
higher speed of data transfer than the single-tag mode.
1.25 Mb Data Streaming Data streaming at 1.25 MB per
second. This mode is faster than either of the two single-tag
interlock modes.
2.5 Mb Data Streaming Data streaming at 2.50 MB per
second. This mode provides the fastest data transfer.
