Description
This command monitors incoming and outgoing asynchronous traffic and displays
diagnostic information for the traffic. A help screen provides a list of commands
available for line monitoring diagnostics.
CAUTION: The line monitor degrades the performance of AI232. Do not use this
command in heavy traffic situations in which performance is crucial.
Note: Information from the line monitor diagnostic mode only appears when data is
passed on serial links. If no data is passed, the screen is blank.
