Command Groups

This section lists IntelliFrame Mainframe commands by functional groups. A question symbol surrounded by brackets [?] identifies commands that also have a query form.

Display Commands

Commands in the DISPlay subsystem display user defined messages on the front panel of VX1420A mainframes or VX1410A mainframes with option 1M (display). Note that the standard VX1410A mainframe does not include a front panel display. Detailed information on the DISPlay command and query begins on Page 3±27.
