Conventions for Commands

This manual includes sample commands that are shown exactly as you should type them on your terminal or network device. The manual also describes the syntax for many commands, defining each parameter in the command. This example illustrates the format conventions used for commands:

To send a configuration command from the DCS 30X, use this syntax:

$+command[command]...[command n]

where:

$+	is the Change Configuration command.
command	is a configuration command. For example, BV is the command to set the
	Beep Volume on the terminal. Enter the command BV0 to turn off the
	beep volume. You can include multiple configuration command
	parameters in the command to configure the terminal.

This table defines the conventions used in the example:

Convention	Description
Special font	Commands appear in this font. You enter the command exactly as it is
	shown.
Italic text	Italics indicate a variable, which you must replace with a real value,
	such as a number, filename, keyword, or command.
[ ]	Brackets enclose a parameter that you may omit from the command. Do
	not include the brackets in the command.
Required parameters	If a parameter is not enclosed in brackets [ ], the parameter is required.
	You must include the parameter in the command; otherwise, the
	command will not execute correctly.
