Using the Command Line Interface

MOTLoad Firmware

 

 

The MOTLoad command line interface is similar to a UNIX command line shell interface. Commands are initiated by entering a valid MOTLoad command (a text string) at the MOTLoad command line prompt and pressing the carriage-return key to signify the end of input. MOTLoad then performs the specified action. An example of a MOTLoad command line prompt is shown below. The MOTLoad prompt changes according to what product it is used on (for example, MVME6100, MVME3100, MVME7100).

Example:

MVME7100>

If an invalid MOTLoad command is entered at the MOTLoad command line prompt, MOTLoad displays a message that the command was not found.

Example:

MVME7100> mytest

"mytest" not found MVME7100>

If the user enters a partial MOTLoad command string that can be resolved to a unique valid MOTLoad command and presses the carriage-return key, the command is executed as if the entire command string had been entered. This feature is a user-input shortcut that minimizes the required amount of command line input. MOTLoad is an ever changing firmware package, so user-input shortcuts may change as command additions are made.

MVME7100>

If the partial command string cannot be resolved to a single unique command, MOTLoad informs the user that the command was ambiguous.

Example:

MVME7100> te

"te" ambiguous MVME7100>
