Description

 

 

 

SET THRESHOLD

Sets the Master's internal message thresholds.

 

Example:

 

 

>SET THRESHOLD

 

 

-- This will set the thresholds of when particular tasks are

 

pended. The threshold is the number of messages queued before a

 

task is pended.--

 

 

--Use extreme caution when adjusting these values.--

 

Current Interpreter Threshold = 2000

 

Enter new Interpreter Threshold (Between 1 and 2000)

 

(Default=10):

 

 

Once you enter a value and press the ENTER key, you get the following

 

message:

 

 

Current Lontalk Threshold = 50

 

 

Enter new Lontalk Threshold (Between 1 and 2000) (Default=50):50

 

Current IP Threshold = 600

 

 

Enter new IP Threshold (Between 1 and 2000) (Default=200): 600

 

Setting Thresholds to: Interpreter 2000

 

Lontalk

50

 

IP

600

 

New thresholds set, reboot the Master for the changes to

 

take affect.

 

 

 

SET TIME

Prompts you to enter the new time for the Master.

 

When the time is set on the Master, the new time will be reflected on all

 

devices in the system that have clocks (i.e. touch panels). By the same

 

token, if you set the time on any system device, the new time will be

 

reflected on the system’s Master, and on all connected devices.

 

This will not update clocks on devices connected to another Master (in

 

Master-to-Master systems).

 

 

Example:

 

 

>SET TIME

 

 

Enter Date: (hh:mm:ss) ->

 

 

 

SET TIMELINE LOOPCNT

Sets the Master's timeline/event max loopcount.

 

 

SET UPD BC RATE

Set UDP broadcast rate. A broadcast message is sent by the Master to

 

allow devices to discover the Master. This command allows the broadcast

 

frequency to be changed or eliminate the broadcast message.

 

Example:

 

 

>SET UPD BC RATE

 

 

Current broadcast message rate is 5 seconds between messages.

 

Enter broadcast message rate in seconds between messages

 

(off=0 ; default=5) (valid values 0-300):

 

Once you enter a value and press the ENTER key, you get the following

 

message:

 

 

Setting broadcast message rate to 300 seconds between messages

 

New broadcast message rate set.

 

 

 

SET URL <D:P:S>

Prompts you to enter the URL address and port number of another Master

 

or device (that will be added to the URL list). Then, enter Y (yes) to

 

approve/store the new addresses in the Master.

 

Entering N (no) cancels the operation.

 

 

Example:

 

 

>SET URL [0:1:0]

 

 

No URLs in the URL connection list

 

Type A and Enter to Add a URL or Enter to exit. -> a

 

Enter URL -> 192.168.21.200

 

 

Enter Port or hit Enter to accept default (1319) ->

 

Enter Type (Enter for permanent or T for temporary) ->

 

URL Added successfully.
