Set IOChannel

 

Set IOChannel Multihost

Description

Configures up to 49 hosts/IOLANs that the Digital input channel or input serial signal

 

pins (DSR, DCD, or CTS-when the line is configured for signal-io) will connect to. To

 

see a list of configured hosts/IOLANs, enter the show iochannel <channel>

User Level

command.

Admin

Syntax

set iochannel <channel> multihost entry <number> delete

 

set iochannel <channel> multihost entry <number> host <host_name>

 

<tcp_port>

Options

<channel>

 

Specify the Digital input channel or input serial signal pin that will be connecting to all

 

the hosts/IOLANs in the multihost list.

 

entry

 

Specify the multihost table entry number. Valid values are 1-100.

 

delete

 

Deletes the entry number in the multihost table.

 

host

 

Specify the preconfigured host that will be in the multihost list.

 

Default: None

 

<tcp_port>

 

Specify the TCP port that the I/O channel or serial signal pin will use to communicate

 

to the Host.

 

Default: 0

Show IOChannel Status

Description

Shows the I/O channel status for all channels and the serial signal pins (when the line is

User Level

configured for signal-io).

Admin

Syntax

show iochannel status

Kill IOChannel

 

Description

Kills the I/O channel.

User Level

Admin

Syntax

kill iochannel <i/o_channel>

 

kill iochannel line <number> rtsctsdtrdsrdcd

Options

i/o_channel

Specify the channel number, for example, d2 or a4. Temperature models use Analog input, so the channel numbers are a1-a4.

rtsctsdtrdsrdcd

Specify the Digital output pins (RTS or DTR) or Digital input pins (CTS, DSR, or

DCD).
