  • Page 71: Edp Command Calibration

    EDP Command Calibration To calibrate the indicator using EDP commands, the indicator COM, USBCOM or Ethernet port must be connected to a terminal or personal computer. See Section 2.6 on page 24 for cable connections. The indicator will respond with OK if the value of the parameter was valid, or the command executed properly. If the indicator responds with ??, then either the value for the parameter was invalid, or the command could not be executed Once the indicator is connected to the sending device, do the following:...

  • Page 72: Using Revolution

    ® 5.0 Using Revolution The Revolution utility provides functions used to support database management, iRite program editing, configuration, calibration, customizing and backup of the 880 configuration settings using a PC.

The number of records can be determined with the command. DB.SCHEMA The 62K of onboard (slot 0) memory can be allocated to up to eight auxiliary databases. However, the size of any one database may limit the size and number of other databases.
