11.2. Command Response

When commands are sent to the APS-8/16M, the unit can respond with either verbose (English Text) or terse messages (numeric / abbreviated). In the default state, all ports will send verbose command responses.

After the unit is installed and conﬁgured, the port conﬁguration command (/P) can specify an individual response format for each port. In addition to the Terse and Verbose response modes, the port conﬁguration commands can also select the Quiet Mode. When the Quiet Mode is selected, the port will not send messages in response to commands.

The table below summarizes the various response messages for both the Terse and Verbose modes.
