Using Serial Commands
• Before you type the requested command, make the
following settings in HyperTerminal:
– In the HyperTerminal menu bar, select
File>Properties
.
– Click on the
Settings
tab.
– Click on the
ASCII Setup
button.
– Enable the following two options:
Send line ends with line
feeds
and
Echo typed characters locally
. This will
automatically complete all your command lines with
<cr><lf> characters and allow you to see in real time
the commands you are typing.
– Click
OK
twice to close the Properties window.
• Now you can type the requested $PASHS,TCP,UID
command. You need to know the login and password of the
receiver you are trying to connect to. If your login and
password are correct, the receiver will return the following
response:
$PASHR,TCP,OK*1B
You are then allowed to send all possible $PASH
commands. Note however that you cannot change the
login and password through a TCP/IP connection, using
the $PASHS,TCP,PAR command. This is only possible
locally through a serial or Bluetooth connection.
When authentication is required, you cannot send
commands until the login and password have been
provided to the receiver. The receiver will however output
data through this connection without prior authentication
if it has been configured to output data on port I.
Running Serial Commands from a USB Key
Serial commands can also be run from a USB key you
connect to the receiver’s USB port through the dedicated
cable.
What you have to do is create a text file containing the list of
serial commands you would like the receiver to execute.
In this file can also be inserted the $PASHS,CMD,WTI
command, which is used to introduce an idle time before the
receiver is allowed to execute the command that comes after.
After typing the last command in the file, press the ENTER
key to insert a carriage line feed as the last item in
the file. This is mandatory.
