Switch  5  of S1001
In the ON position, this switch is used to force the CPU into a “boot” mode so it 
is ready to accept a download of an operating system program via its console 
port. This setting should not be changed unless a problem has been encoun-
tered while attempting to download a new operating system program.

•

Switch  6  of S1001
This switch selects the handshake setting of the console port when switch 5 
(described above) is in the ON position. When ON, the handshake is enabled 
(recommended position).

•

Switch  7  and  Switch 8 of S1001
These switches are used to set the baud rate when downloading a new operating 
system program. It is recommended to use the fastest rate possible.

Lower CPU DIP Switch S1002

The lower DIP switch provides several user-selectable options. These options are as 
follows:

•

Switch  1  of S1002
This switch is not used in these systems and should be left OFF.

•

Switch  2  of S1002
This switch allows the alarm port on the rear of the main Allegiant bay to con-
figure as an auxiliary console port when switch 2 is turned ON. This auxiliary 
port allows the alarm port (in addition to the regular console port) to communi-
cate with the optional LTC 8059/00 MCS package or the optional LTC 8850/00 
GUI Software package. 

The port can also be used to control the Allegiant system via the Console Com-
mand Language (documented in the optional CCL manual). The normal con-
sole port and the alarm port (when switch 2 is ON) may be used to control the 
Allegiant system simultaneously. Communications parameters (baud & hand-
shake) for the alarm port can be set using the keyboard (see User Function 32), 
with the optional LTC 8059/00 MCS package or with the optional 
LTC 8850/00 GUI Software package.
