Set Up the Hand-held Monitor
1. If the Bus Interface Unit is connected to an operating bus, the Hand-held Monitor must
be the ONLY Hand-held Monitor plugged into any device on the bus.
If the Bus Interface Unit is NOT presently connected to a properly-terminated Genius bus,
install a 75 Ohm terminating resistor across the Main Bus Serial 1 and Serial 2 terminals on the
Bus Interface Unit Terminal Block. The resistor is needed only for off-line communications
between the HHM and the Bus Interface Unit; it should be removed prior to bus installation
(unless the BIU Terminal Block is the last device on the bus).
2. Begin with the HHM turned off. Attach it to the connector on the Bus Interface Unit.

3. Turn the Hand-held Monitor on. Adjust its baud rate if necessary.
Previously unconfigured factory-shipped modules operate at 153.6 Kbaud standard. You
should be aware of the operating baud rate before trying to communicate with the Bus
Interface Unit, and the Hand-held Monitor's baud rate should be set correspondingly. After
HHM powerup and setup, the Home menu appears.

If the message FUNCTION DISABLED appears during configuration, the corresponding HHM
option has been disabled. To continue, it will be necessary to change HHM options in the HHM
Utilities menu. If the message CONFIG PROTECTED appears, the Bus Interface Unit
configuration has been protected. To continue, it will be necessary to "unprotect" the
configuration.
