6.3 The Command Facility
The Command Facility contains menus to configure
the ports, node, and data channels. You will need to
access the Command Facility often during the
configuration process. When an ASCII terminal is
connected, the screen is blank except for the cursor
position. From here you can enter the Command
Facility in one of two ways:
• Via the Command Mode using ^X <break>.
The advantage of ..this method is that when you
are required to perform a reset, you are
returned to the Command Facility rather than
disconnected.
• Via $CMD. The advantage of this method is that
you completely bypass the Command Mode and
enter directly into the Command Facility.
However, you are disconnected after a reset. Use
this method if your terminal is configured as
DTR connect protocol.
Either method can be used to enter and reenter the
Command Facility.
NOTE: If your keyboard does not have a <break>
key, use the $CMD access method.
If you have the optional NMS module installed,
refer to MS1 NMS Module User’s Manual for
information about accessing the Command Facility.
The Command Mode can be accessed by two
channels (in addition to the Command Port
connector on the optional NMS module) at the
same time. The Command Facility menus can be
accessed by only one user at a time.
