9. Logoff Character: Defines the Logoff Character for this port. The Logoff Character
determines the command(s) or character(s) that must be issued at this port in order to
disconnect from a second port (Resident Disconnect). (Default = ^X ([Ctrl] plus [X])).
Note: When redefining the Logoff Character, make certain to select a character
that does not normally occur in your data. This will prevent the unit from
accidentally disconnecting ports in the middle of a data transfer. For example, if
the Logoff Character is defined as "s", then the ports will disconnect whenever the
letter "s" is detected.
10. Sequence Disconnect: Enables/Disables and configures the Resident Disconnect
command. This prompt offers the option to either disable the Sequence Disconnect, or
select a one character format or a three character format. (Default = One Characters).
Note the following:
•
When a Resident Connection is initiated, the APS will send a message which lists the
connected ports, and displays the one character or three character command that will be
required in order to disconnect.
•
The One Character Disconnect sequence is intended for situations where the destination
port will not receive the disconnect command. When the Three Character format is
selected, the disconnect sequence will pass through to the destination port prior to
breaking the connection.
• When the One Character format is selected, resident connections are terminated by
entering the selected Logoff Character only. There is no need to press [Enter] before
and after the Logoff Character when the One Character format is selected.
• When the Three Character format is selected, the Resident Disconnect Sequence will
use the format "[Enter]LLL[Enter]", where L is the selected Logoff Character.
11. Timeout Disconnect: Enables and selects the Timeout Period for this port. If enabled,
and the port does not receive or transmit data for the specified Timeout Period, the port
will disconnect. In Any-to-Any Mode, Passive Mode, or Buffer Mode, the default setting
for this item is “OFF”. When the port is set for Modem Mode, the default setting for this
item is 15 minutes.
Notes:
•
The Timeout Disconnect is also applied to non-connected ports that are left in
Command Mode. If no additional data activity is detected, an unconnected port
will exit from command mode when the Timeout Disconnect value expires.
•
When connected ports time out and are disconnected, both ports will also exit
from Command Mode.
12. Response Type: Selects the type of messages that this port will send in response to
commands. The user can select Verbose (English Text), Terse (Numeric / Abbreviation),
or Quiet Mode (No Response). (Default = Verbose).
