Command Reference Guide

/C Connect

Establishes a bidirectional connection between two ports. For more information, see Section 6.2.3. There are two types of connections:

Resident Connect: If the /C command specifies only one port, your resident port will be connected to the specified port.

Third Party Connect: If the /C command specifies two ports, the unit will connect the two ports indicated. Third Party Connections can only be

initiated by ports and accounts that permit Supervisor commands.

Notes:

If your user account does not permit Supervisor commands, you will only be allowed to connect to ports specifically allowed by that account.

Non-Supervisors cannot create Third Party connections; Non- Supervisors are only allowed to create connections between their resident port and the ports allowed by their password/account.

If the user account permits Supervisor commands, you are allowed to connect to any port.

RS232 Ports are not allowed to create a Third Party connection to the Network Port. For example, Port 1 cannot connect Port 3 to the Network Port.
