    CODE OPERATED SWITCH-16 2. Introduction The COS-16 brings the convenience of code-based occur in data files. With code repetition enabled, RS-232 switching to sites with multiple terminals, the switch will only react to instructions that have printers, and peripherals. The base unit switches been repeated twice, four times, or up to eight one control port among up to 16 ports.
