F78 - Parallel BCD Output Configuration

The Parallel BCD Output option board status can be determined via the Serial or Network port using
Function F78. Use Serial/Network Function F78 to obtain information about the part number and the
current version of the FPGA installed on the Parallel BCD Output option board. To obtain board status
information, send the following string to the Serial/Network port:
F78<SP>B<N><SEP>S<CR><LF>
where:
F = ASCII character F.
78 = function number.
<SP> = ASCII space character one or more.
B = ASCII character to denote Option Bay number follows
<N> = Option Bay Number, 1 through 10.
S = ASCII character for "Status Request"
<LT> =line terminator; for output strings (a carriage return and line feed ) or for input strings (a
carriage return only).
The XLi Serial/Network port will respond with a two-line replay for status request similar to the following
example:
