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).
