B&B Electronics 232MSS2 manual Command Line Method

Command Line Method

This method enables the user to select any Smart Switch port through the command line. To specify a Smart Switch port through the command line, you would type SSTSR followed by the X command symbol and the letter of the port.

Example:

To change to Smart Switch port '"C" you would type SSTSR XC at the Dos prompt and press the ENTER key.

Before a Smart Switch port is changed, a check is made to determine if the port is busy transmitting. If the port is busy the STSR will generate a tone to notify you that the port is busy and that a port change cannot be made.

CAUTION: If the software package you are using for transmission is running at a fast baud rate (57600), the SSTSR may not detect the Smart Switch port as busy and the transmission could be interrupted.

The SSTSR does not detect when the Smart Switch port is receiving data. Therefore, if data is being received, the Smart Switch port may still be changed.
