AutoCAD  9,10, and 11 with Electrostatic 67436 Serial Port:
Technical Support Hot Line 1-800-CALCOMP (1-800-225-2667)  
 Updated: 30 April, 1996
                                                     
Hardware Connection Requirements:
  PC Host Computer with an operational serial port (i.e. COM1, COM2).
  A straight through serial cable (50 ft. max), no wires are crossed.
  HP Plotter serial cables do not work with CalComp Plotters. Must
  have pins 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 20. Connect to plotter COM _1, COM_2,
  or COM_3 port.  CalComp 67436 Plotter must be connected to a
  PC directly for this configuration.  Network systems, serial buffer
  boxes, and/or plot spool programs may require different
  communication parameter settings.

1. Setup 67436 Plotter:
   - An ASCII Terminal or a Terminal emulation program must be used to
     configure the plotter.
   - Connect Terminal to the TERMINAL port on plotter, with a straight
     through serial cable.
   - Set Terminal serial communication to 9600 baud rate, 8 bits, 1 stop bit,
     no parity, hardware handshake.
   - Turn the plotter on. The Terminal screen will display:
     Plotter initialization.
   - When initialization is complete, press CTRL P.
     Plotter will request a USER PIN#  press 0 and ENTER.
   - At the A> prompt type COM_1 (if using Com_1) and ENTER.
   - The following will be displayed at the Terminal:  Port is enabled
   - Input Monitor Dump = NO? NO and Enter.
   - Baud Rate = ? 9600 and Enter.   Character Framing (bits, parity,
     stop bits)=? 7,E,1 and Enter.
   - Host to plotter CDCL Protocol = ? CTS and Enter.
     Plotter to Host CDCL Protocol = ? CTS and Enter.
   - Dead Job Time Out (SEC) = ? 60 and Enter.
     Time out Action = ? Force and Enter.
   - Plot Command Language = ? 907 and Enter.
     Steps Per Inch = ? 2032 and Enter.
   - Plot Data Protocol = ? CTS and Enter.
     Beginning of Record Sync Character = ? $16 and Enter.
   - Number of Sync Characters = ? 2 and Enter.
     End of Record Character = ? $0D and Enter.
   - Checksum = ? YES and Enter.
   - At the A> prompt, save the above parameters by typing: SAVE X ALL
     and Enter  (where X = user number that the parameters will be saved to.
     Valid values are 1 through 256).

2. Use EDIT or EDLIN to Add line to AUTOEXEC.BAT file to define COM Port
   (Add after PATH statement):
   MODE COM1:,,P  (if using serial port COM1).
   MODE COM2:,,P  (if using serial port COM2).

3. Setup AutoCAD Release 9,10,11:
   - Start up AutoCad.  At Main Menu choose 5 - Configure AutoCAD.
   - At Configuration Menu choose  - Configure operating parameters.
   - At Operating parameters choose 3 - Default plot file name.  Enter COM1
     (if using serial port 1).
   - Exit to Configuration Menu.
   - At Configuration Menu choose 5 - Configure plotter.
   - Do you want to select a different one ? = YES.
   - From Available Plotters choose 5 - CalComp 906 / 907 / PCI.  *
   - From Supported Models choose 1 - 104X Plotter.
   - Number of pens is 16.
   - Step Size per inch is 2032.
   - Do you want to use XON/XOFF = YES.
   - Enter port name, or address in hexadecimal = COM1.
     (Selection entered here will not actually be used).
   - Would you like to calibrate your plotter ? = NO.
   - Write the plot to a file ? = YES.
   - Size Units ( Inches or Millimeters) = I (Inches).
   - Plot Origin in inches = 0.00,0.00.
   - Enter size or Width, Height in inches = 34.25, 23 (for 36x24 sheet)
     or desired sheet size.
   - Rotate plot (0 - 90 - 180 - 270) = 0.
   - Do you want to change anything ? = NO.
   - Pen width in inches = 0.010.
   - Adjust area fill boundaries for pen width ? = NO.
   - Remove hidden lines ? = NO.
   - Plotted Inches = Drawings Units or Fit = F (Fit).
   - Exit to Configuration Menu, Exit to Main Menu,
     Keep Configuration Changes = YES.

*An ADI Driver for these versions of AutoCad is available through our
website (http://www.calcomp.com)
The filename you need to download
is CALPROGS.ZIP.  Use PKUNZIP to uncompress this file.  This file also
contains a readme file with instructions on how to install and
configure.  With the ADI driver you will have a selection of 126 pens
and also long plot capabilities.
