SELECT EDMAC MODE:

An EDMAC MASTER is a unit which is local to the M&C computer, and which passes
messages, via the overhead, to a distant-end modem.
An EDMAC SLAVE is a unit which is not local to the M&C computer, which is at the
distant-end of a satellite link.
If MASTER is selected then the following sub-menu is displayed:

EDIT DISTANT-END'S ADDR:
0240 (SEE HANDBOOK)(ENT)
Edit the address of the distant-end modem to which this unit will pass messages. Select
the digit to be edited with the LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys. Change the value of the digit
using the UP/DOWN arrow keys. Press Enter.
There is a restriction on values which can be entered here - they may only be in
increments of 10. This is automatically taken care of - the user may not edit the last digit
of the address. This has been implemented so that a single MASTER may pass messages
for up to 10 devices at the distant end. The valid range of addresses is from 10 to 9990.
But if SLAVE is selected, then the following sub-menu is displayed:
Rev. 1.3
