ΣCommands: “Help”

There are two primary ways to use the Quadra’s help feature:

•Type HELP to list all Quadra commands.

•Type HELP followed by the command to get command-specific help.

ΣExample: Type H BRI to get help on the Brightness function.

ΣExample: Type H WSR to get help on the Window Source Rectangle function.

Some commands have predefined values, and only these may be used as parameter choices. Predefined parameter choices are indicated as

<value1value2value3>

ΣExample: The choices for BAUDrate are:

<9600 19200 38400 57600 115200>

When a command is entered without any parameters, Quadra reports back the current settings of the selected parameter.

ΣExample: What is the current baud rate setting ?:

BAUDrate

would return:

9600

Parameter values may be a “range” of values, or a defined set of choices (as described above in the “Predefined Parameter Values” section).

Ranges are indicated as:

<value1 ... value2>

ΣExample: The value of BRIght is a range of

<-500 ... 500>

Commands such as BAUDrate do not need an explicit address, as Quadra has only a single serial port. However, other commands can be applied to several destinations. For example the “brightness” command can apply to all Quadra inputs or to an individual input — depending upon how the command sequence is structured.
