Third-Party Disconnect (Supervisor Mode only):
The /D command is issued
from your resident port to disconnect two third-party ports. For example, if
your Resident Port is Port 1, a Third-Party Disconnect would be used to
disconnect Port 3 from Port 4.
Strictly speaking, the /D command uses the format: /D
xx yy
[Enter]
,
where “
xx
” and “
yy
” are the numbers of the two ports that you wish to
disconnect. But the /D command can specify either or both connected ports.
For example, if Port 1 is your resident port, any of the following commands
can be used to disconnect Port 3 from Port 4:
/D 3 4
[Enter]
or
/D 3
[Enter]
or
/D 4
[Enter]
3.
No Activity Timeout:
Providing that the Timeout Disconnect feature is
enabled at either connected port, the No Activity Timeout can disconnect
Resident or Third-Party Connections.
a) To configure the Timeout Feature, invoke the /P command to display the
Port Configuration menu for the desired port, as described in
Section 5.5.3
. Option 11 enables and defines the Timeout Feature.
b) When the Timeout Feature is enabled, the port will automatically
disconnect if no data is received for the defined Timeout Period.
NOTES
When connected ports time out, both ports will exit Command Mode
after disconnecting.
When an unconnected port is left in Command Mode and no additional
data activity is detected, the port will automatically exit Command Mode
when its defined timeout value elapses.
