The drive is now in local/ programming mode.
Push the enter (press the dial once).
Scroll down (turn the dial clockwise) to the CTL menu and press enter
Scroll down to LAC and press enter
Set LAC to L3 or level 3 (you must hold enter for 3 seconds for the change to save), press ESC
Scroll down to FR1
Set FR1 to A1U1

Set CHCF to SEP
Scroll down to CD1
Set CD1 to tEr for terminal control
Once you are done programming, press the ESC button several times, until the drive displays rdy.
