Note: The baud rate specified in this command must match the settings
of your terminal; otherwise, after issuing this command, the
communication between the terminal and DMM will be lost. In that case,
you must change the setting of your terminal before you can reestablish
the communication.
−Data_bits
This parameter allows you to set the number of data bits used by DMM
for communication with your terminal. The following command allows
you to change the number of data bits to 8.
8260> set terminal console data_bits 8
Note: The number of data bits specified in this command must match
the settings of your terminal; otherwise, after issuing this command, the
communication between the terminal and DMM will be lost. In that case,
you must change the setting of your terminal before you can reestablish
the communication.
−Stop_bits
This parameter allows you to set the number of stop bits used for
communication between your terminal and the DMM port. The following
command allows you to change the number of stop bits to 2.
8260> set terminal console stop_bits 2
−Parity
This parameter allows you to set the parity setting used by DMM for
communication with your terminal. For example, the following command
allows you to change parity for DMM to even:
8260> set terminal console parity even
Note: The parity setting specified in this command must match the
settings of your terminal; otherwise, after issuing this command, the
communication between the terminal and DMM will be lost. In that case,
you must change the setting of your terminal before you can reestablish
the communication.
−Mode
This command allows you to select which one of the following methods
will be used by the DMM to communicate with the device attached to its
port:
- Command-line parser
This setting allows DMM to communicate with a direct or modem
attached device emulating an ASCII terminal. To use the
command-line parser on the DMM port, you must issue the following
command:
8260A> set terminal console mode command_line
- Serial Line Interface (SLIP)
This setting allows DMM to use SLIP to communicate with a TCP/IP
station attached to its port console or auxiliary port. An example of
the command to set the SLIP interface on the DMM port, is given
below:
8260> set terminal console mode slip 9.67.46.3
