configuration menus, note the following:

To select an item from a Port Configuration menu, key in the number and press [Enter].
·
To clear an item in a Port Configuration menu, enter the number for the desired item and
press [Enter]. When the prompt appears, press [Space] and then press [Enter].
·
When defining the Port Name, do not use the forward slash character (/), double quotes
("), the asterisk character (*), or blank spaces.
·
Port Names cannot begin with a number.
·
A Port cannot be named “N”, this name is reserved for the Network Port.
·
Refer to the instructions in each screen for additional functions available under that screen.
·
To exit a menu or prompt without changing its current value, press [Esc].
·
Passwords and port names are case sensitive. When defining passwords and port names,
note the exact text, including the case of each character.

The “Who” command (/W) can be used to display currently selected parameters for your
resident port. Note that when the Network port has been accessed using a Port Password
(User Mode), the /W command will only display the settings for the Sequence Disconnect,
the selected Logoff Character and the current status of the Accept Break feature.
·
If you are configuring the CMS unit via modem, communication parameters will not be
changed until after you exit from command mode and disconnect from the CMS unit.
