5.6. Copying Parameters to All Ports
The /CP command (Copy Port Parameters) provides a convenient means for
selecting similar parameters for all APS-8/16M RS232 ports.
When the /CP command is invoked, the unit will display a menu which allows
you to select port communication parameters, then copy them to all
APS-8/16M RS232 ports. The Copy Port Parameters menu can be used to set
all parameters for all RS-232 Ports, or define only a select group of parameters
and then copy them to all ports.
Notes:
• The /CP command is only available in Supervisor Mode.
• The /CP command cannot be used to set Ports 1 and 2 to Passive
Mode or Buffer Mode (Port Mode, Item 6.)
• The /CP command cannot be used to disable the Supervisor Mode at
Ports 1 and 2 (Supervisor Mode, Item 7.)
• The /CP command cannot be used to change the Port Mode for
the Internal Modem Port. The Internal Modem Port is always
configured for Modem Mode.
