Coax DSC/DSE Menu
Use the Coax DSC/DSE Menu to define how the printer handles DSC/DSE
data over the coax attachment. The following table describes the settings you
can change from the Coax DSC/DSE Menu. The options you specify apply
only to DSC/DSE mode. An asterisk (*) next to a value in the table indicates
the factory default. The Coax DSC/DSE Menu appears only if you have the
coax network interface card installed.
Notes:
1. To select a new value, press the Enter key when the value is displayed in
the message display area. An asterisk (*) appears next to the value in the
message display area, indicating that it is now active.
2. For more information about configuring the coax attachment, see
Twinax/Coax Configuration Guide.
3. If you are unfamiliar with using the operator panel to work with menus,
please read "Using the Operator Panel Keys" on page 23 and "Navigating
Menus" on page 24 before continuing.

Value

nnn
Specifies the IPDS buffer size in bytes. The SCS buffer size
is always 256.
Specifies the number of seconds the printer waits for data
before it determines there is no more data to receive for the
job. The printer then checks other installed attachments, and
will switch to attachments with jobs waiting. Valid values
are 0 to 255. The default is 90 seconds.
Notes:
1. Setting PORT TMEOUT to 0 dedicates the printer to the
twinax port only. If you set PORT TMEOUT to 0, and
you print a non-IPDS job, you will not be able to print
IPDS jobs until you power off and then power on the
printer.
2. Setting PORT TMEOUT too low can cause timeouts to
occur during normal pauses in the data stream, which,
in turn, can cause jobs to print again. If this problem
occurs, set PORT TMEOUT to a higher value. IBM
recommends that you do not set PORT TMEOUT to a
value less than 30.
