5.6. Copying Parameters to All Ports
The /CP command (Copy Port Parameters) provides a convenient means for selecting similar
parameters for all CMS RS-232 ports.
When the /CP command is invoked, the unit will display a menu which allows you to select
port communication parameters, and then copy them to all CMS RS-232 ports. The Copy Port
Parameters menu can be used to set all parameters for all RS-232 Ports, or define only a select
group of parameters and then copy them to all ports.
Notes:
The /CP command will not copy parameters to the Network Port.
The /CP command is only available in Supervisor Mode.
The Copy Port Parameters Menu will not display the Port Password. This field
will read either “undefined” or “defined”, depending upon whether or not the Port
Password has been specified.
The /CP command cannot be used to set Ports 1 and 2 to Passive Mode or Buffer
Mode (Port Mode, Item 7).
The /CP command cannot be used to disable the Supervisor Mode at Ports 1 and 2
(Supervisor Mode, Item 8).
