COMMAND OVERVIEW
All DGy 201 functions are accessible by means of ASCII commands that
are used to set one or more system parameters (or values). The
command set is made up of ASCII characters. Note that commands
associated with file and path names are case sensitive. These
commands may be used to control DGy 201 via the RS-232 serial port
or via the Ethernet port using the internal DGy 201 telnet server.
The DGy 201 can also be controlled using the supplied Web Control
Panel (WCP) graphical user interface which can be used with a
computer and a standard web browser. Remote control is typically
accomplished using a third party controller connected to either the serial
or Ethernet port.
