Command line interface commands available with 7K firmware 2.04
#!; - Issuing commands to the 7K
Perhaps one of the more appealing additions to the 7K firmware, when used in conjunction with the DAB, is that commands to the 7K can be entered on the serial port.
Any digits preceded with an exclamation point will be sent to the 7K and treated as DTMF digits that appear to originate from within the controller.
Input lines to the command processor are limited to 80 characters in length, but for long lines a continuation character “\” can be placed at the end of a line to signify more digits for a given command sequence will appear on a subsequent line.
Command execution occurs when the Carriage Return character is received.
White space characters may be freely inserted if it makes the line more readable.
Multiple commands can be entered on one line by using the asterisk (“*”) to signify the end of one command and the start of the next.
The octothorpe (“#”) can be used to cancel a command in progress.
Any lines proceeded with an octothorpe (“#”) or a semicolon (“;”) are treated as comment lines and are simply ignored. This allows a commented script file to simply be uploaded with a terminal program to the DAB in order to program the controller.
If the user desires to use a text file upload method to program the controller, the terminal program should be setup to pace itself either by waiting for a new command line prompt from the DAB to appear, or by adding a delay at the end of each line.
