Operation
9.3. Manual Operation
In addition to the command driven A/B switching functions that are available via the Web
Browser Interface and Text Interface, the AFS-16 Circuit Modules can also be manually
switched. Circuit Modules can be individually controlled using the A/B switch on the
Circuit Module front panel, or all 16 Circuit Modules can be manually switched using the
Master A/B Gang Switch on the Control Module front panel.
If desired, the manual A/B Switch on each individual Circuit Module can also be
disabled using the A/B Switch Jumper as described in Section 4.5. In addition, the
Master A/B Gang Switch can also be completely disabled via the System Parameters
Menu as described in Section 5.3.
9.4. Logging Out of Command Mode
When you have finished communicating with the AFS-16, it is important to always
disconnect using either the "LogOut" link (Web Browser Interface) or the /X command
(Text Interface), rather than by simply closing your browser window or communications
program. When communicating via a PDA, use the PDA's "Close" function to disconnect
and logout.
When you disconnect using the LogOut link or /X command, this ensures that the
AFS-16 has completely exited from command mode, and is not waiting for the inactivity
timeout period to elapse before allowing additional connections.
