13.1. Command Conventions

Most commands described in this section conform to the following conventions:

•Text Interface: Commands discussed in this section, can only be invoked via the Text Interface. These commands cannot be invoked via the Web Browser Interface.

•Slash Character: Most RSM commands begin with the Slash Character (/).

•Apply Command to All Ports: When an asterisk is entered as the argument of the /D (Disconnect) or /E commands (Erase Buffer) the command will be applied to all ports. For example, to erase all port buffers, type /E * [Enter].

•Port Name Wild Card: It is not always necessary to enter the entire port name.

Port names can be abbreviated in command lines by entering the first character(s) of the name followed by an asterisk (*). For example, a port named "SERVER" can be specified as "S*". Note however, that this command would also be applied to any other port name that begins with an "S".

•Suppress "Sure?" Prompt: When the /D (Disconnect) or /E (Erase Buffer) commands are invoked, the /Y option can be included to override the "Sure?" prompt. For example, to disconnect Port 8 without displaying the Sure prompt, type /D/Y 8 [Enter].

•Enter Key: Most commands are invoked by pressing [Enter].

•Connected Ports: When two ports are connected, most RSM commands will not

be recognized by either of the connected ports. The only exception is the Resident Disconnect Sequence (Default = ^X ([Ctrl] plus [X]).)

•Configuration Menus: To exit from a configuration menu, press [Esc]. The only exception to this rule is the Copy Parameters Menu (/CP), and in that case the [Esc] key is used to confirm the copy operation.
