“No error”
Parameter values that appear in this manual are often enclosed in curly braces
({}) separated by a vertical line. This vertical line means the same thing as the
word “or.” For example, values for the parameter <Boolean> are
{0|1|OFF|ON}
This is the same thing as saying “0 or 1 or OFF or ON.” Any single value is a
valid parameter.
