Holding the “CTRL” key down and then pressing the “A” key will acknowledge 2120 alarms and troubles
(only if remote acknowledge is enabled).
l
Holding the “CTRL” key down and then pressing the “S” key will activate the 2120 SIGNAL SILENCE
program (only if remote acknowledge is enabled).
l
Holding the “CTRL” key down and then pressing the “D” key will activate the 2120 DETECTOR RESET
program (only if remote acknowledge is enabled).
l
Holding the “CTRL” key down and then pressing the “0” key will cause a report being displayed on the
screen to stop scrolling.

Holding the “CTRL” key down and then pressing the “P” key will cause a report that has been stopped
by the “CTRL-0” function to proceed.
l
Holding the ‘CTRL” key down and then pressing the “G” key will test the ADDS terminal SONALERT.
ADDS VIEWPOINT OPTION SWITCHES
There are two DIP switch locations on’the ADDS Viewpoint terminal, Sl and S2. Switch package Sl can be seen
from the rear of the ADDS terminal (Figure 3). Switch package S2 is visible only after removing the CRT cover
(Figure 4).

THE GENICOM TERMINET
Note: The Genicom TermiNet was previously manufactured by General Electric.
The Genicom TermiNet (Figure 9) is a keyboard/printer that functions in much the same way as the ADDS
terminal.
The Genicom TermiNet
FIGURE 9
INSTALLATION NOTES
The Genicom TermiNet can be supervised by the BMUX. To supervise a TermiNet, the BMUX polls it every nine
seconds. The TermiNet (if functioning properly) responds with special answerback message that says, “Yes, I’m
still here”. The lack of an answerback causes the BMUX to report a trouble for the TermiNet’s port. The BMUX
will report a port trouble under any of the following conditions:
l
The TermiNet has failed.
l
The Terminet has been turned off.
l
The TermiNet’s RS232C cable has been disconnected.
Note: It is not necessary to supervise the TermiNet.
IMPORTANT: The TermiNet must be connected to its order entry-assigned port on a COLD START if it is to be
supervised or a port failure will be reported.
If the G.E. TermiNet does not respond properly when connected to a supervised 2120 port, reset the BMUX using
the CPU board switch. When you do so the TermiNet must be powered-up, on line, and connected to the BMUX.
Further, the appropriate port must be designated “GE.”
If after trying the above the TermiNet does not respond properly, follow the procedure below.
Note: Make sure that AC is present at the unit, that its paper is loaded, and that it is connected to the BMUX
before proceeding.

6. Enter “DEV” at the local printer ot verify that the TermiNet’s port is designated “GE.” If not, reassign the
port.
7. If you now get a port failure, reset the BMUX via the CPU board switch. (When doing so make sure that
the TermiNet is powered up, on line, and connected to the BMUX.)
Note: If the port failure does not clear within 60 seconds, then proceed to Step 8. If the port failure clears, then
you are done.
8. Hold down the pj
key and press the m
key until the display indicates “LOC.” (This puts
the unit into local operation.)
9. Hold down the

key and type in “ASU.” The TermiNet should then print “9 B.” (This checks the
unit’s response to a BMUX poll.)
Note: If the result of Step 9 is something other than “q B,” then proceed to Step 10. If the result is correct,
then proceed to Step 14.

Look at the “CTL” key on the left side of the keyboard. The “CTL” key, when used in conjunction with other keys,
performs special functions.
l
Holding the “CTL” key down and then pressing the “X” key will end a report that was requested by a “LIST”
command.
l
Holding the “CTL” key down and then pressing the “A” key will acknowledge 2120 alarms and troubles. (If
the port is programmed for remote acknowledge.)
l
Holding the “CTL” key down and then pressing the “S” key will activate the 2120 SIGNAL SILENCE program.
(If the port is programmed for remote acknowledge.)
l
Holding the “CTL” key down and then pressing the “D” key will activate the 2120 DETECTOR RESET
program. (If the port is programmed for remote acknowledge.)
l
Holding the “CTL” key down and then pressing the “G” key will test the TermiNet’s SONALERT.
How to Set TermiNet Margins:
1. Hold down the 0 FCT
key and press the r\ key. This clears the existing margins.
2. Return the print head to the left margin by pressing the 1 RETURN 1 key.
3. Position the print head at the desired left margin location using the space bar.
4. Hold down the
FCT

key and press the [3] key. This programs the left margin setting at the
print head’s location.
5. Position the print head at the desired right margin location using the space bar.
6. Hold down the ml
key and press the 171 key. This programs the right margin setting at the
print head’s location.
How to Set Top of Form (TOF) and Bottom of Form (BOF)
1. Place the paper into the TermiNet and align the desired top-of-form location with the print head’s position.
2. Hold down the

CENTRONICS 150 CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONS
Figure 13 shows the Centronics 150 control panel and on/off switch. There are three LEDs and two switches on
the control panel.
l
The SELECT switch and its associated green LED. Pressing the SELECT switch will enable the printer for
printing (SELECT LED on). If the printer is disabled, then the LED will be off.
l
The red P.E. (Paper Empty) LED. The LED will be ON when there is no paper in the printer. If the printer
is enabled and the paper runs out, then the printer will be automatically disabled.
l
The green POWER LED, which is on to indicate the presence of AC.
l
The T.O.F. switch. Pressing this switch causes the printer to advance the paper by the number of lines
selected via internal option switches. We’ll discuss the option switches momentarily.

you turn it on with the SELECT switch pressed, then the printer will perform a self-test. A sample self-test printout

CENTRONICS H80 CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONS
Figure 21 shows the Centronics H80 control panel. There are three LEDs and three switches on the control panel.
l
The FF switch, which advances the printer paper to the top of the next page when pressed.
l
The LF switch, which advances the printer paper by one line when pressed momentarily, and feeds paper
continuously if held in when the printer is OFF LINE.
l
The ON LINE switch. When power is turned on, the printer is automatically on line and ready to receive data.
If you press this switch, the printer is placed OFF LINE, allowing local paper control via LF and FF. Pressing
it once more places the printer ON LINE.
l
The ON LINE LED, which indicates that the printer is ON LINE and ready to receive data.
l
The ALARM LED, which indicates that the printer is out of paper
l
The READ,Y LED, which is on to indicate that the printer is on.
Centronics H80 Control Panel
FIGURE 21
The LF switch performs another function that could be useful at system checkout. If the printer is off and you turn
it on with the LF switch pressed, then the printer will perform a self-test. (Be sure to leave the LF switch pressed
for a few seconds after applying power.) A sample self-test printout is shown in Figure 22.

,CENTRONICS H80 OPTION SWITCH_ES
The DIP switches on-the Ce&ronics H80 Printer are used to select the printer’s baud rate and parity. The DIP
switches are located on a circuit board at the right rear of the printer. To access the switches, you must remove
the printer’s cover as follows:
(1) Remove power from the printer and unplug it from its wall socket.
(2) Lift the hinged front cover and remove the ribbon cassette.
(3) Remove screw from front center of printer.
(4) Remove the platen knob by pulling it straight outward. Notice the flat keyway for the shaft.
(5) Loosen the two screws at the rear of the printer.
(6) Lift the cover at the rear, then continue CAREFULLY until the front latching tabs disengage (they will make
a snapping sound).
See Figure 23 for location of DIP switches.

Connect the Centronics H80 to the BMUX as shown in Figure 24. (Normally the printer runs at 300 baud, or at
1200 baud with the handshake line connected.)
If you wish to temporarily connect the Centronics H80 printer to the ADDS CRT/keyboard AUX port for service
printouts, etc., do so using Figure 25.
NOTES
1. If the ADDS CRT/keyboard AUX port does not seem to function, you can enable it by holding down the
(CTRL[ key and pressing the ]F[ key. To disable the port once enabled by CTRL-R, hold down the
1-1 key and press the ITI key.
2. Do not use the ADDS CRT/keyboard AUX port for permanent connections because the AUX Port must be
enabled by a CTRL-R anytime the ADDS CRT/keyboard is powered-up.
