This Section provides more detailed information on all CMS commands, sorted alphabetically by
name.
[Enter] Enter Command Mode
In order to set parameters or connect ports, you must first access the command mode as
described in Section 5.1. When the Command Mode is inactive (port asleep), the port will only
respond when the [Enter] key is pressed without any characters preceding it. If the Supervisor
Password (command /F) has been defined, the unit will require a password before allowing
access to Command Mode.
Availability: Supervisor / User
Format: [Enter] (Press [Enter] twice if other characters have already been typed).
Response: The Port Status Screen will be displayed, followed by the "CMS>" command
prompt.
[Enter]+++[Enter] Resident Disconnect Sequence
The Resident Disconnect Sequence is issued to disconnect your resident port from another port.
For example, if you are communicating via Port 3, and Port 3 is connected to Port 4, the
Resident Disconnect Sequence would be used to disconnect Port 3 from Port 4. Although the
default Resident Disconnect Sequence is [Enter]+++[Enter], the command format and Logoff
Character can also be redefined via the Port Configuration Menus as described in Section 5.5.3.
Note that a one character disconnect command can also be selected.
