SET TERMINAL TIMEOUT

Use the SET TERMINAL TIMEOUT command to set the amount of time that your terminal may be unattended before being logged off from the Bridge Module.

Format

Parameters

{minutes} = minutes from 1 - 30

0 (zero - for no timeout)

This example changes the Bridge Module timeout parameter to 3 minutes.

Description

The SET TERMINAL TIMEOUT command enables you to set the amount of time that your terminal may be unattended before being logged off from the Bridge Module.

Once timeout has been set, you are given that amount of time in which to respond to a screen prompt. If you do not respond within the set amount of time, the messages “Parser timed out” and “WARNING: Unsaved changes lost” are displayed. The terminal then beeps, and you are logged out of the system. The MONITOR command will not be interrupted by a non-zero timeout parameter.

Note: If a modem connection is in progress and the HANGUP command is enabled, the modem will also be disconnected upon a timeout.
