Command and Data Transfer Modes
The async terminal has two modes of operation. Local operations at the async terminal
are performed in
Command
mode (See “Async Terminal Commands.”)
In
Data Transfer
mode, the PAD interprets all input from the terminal as data, and
transmits it to the remote device.
If this is a PVC connection, you can enter
Data Transfer
mode from
Command
mode
by entering the PAD recall character specified in the Async PAD profile (Chapter 13).
If this is an SVC connection, you must send a Call Request packet to enter
Data
Transfer
mode. (See “Placing a Call from an Async Terminal” on page A-3 .) Either
way, once in
Data Transfer
mode, you can toggle back and forth between the two
modes by entering the PAD recall character.
Async Terminal Commands
The following commands can be entered in Command mode. (For a list of commands,
type help [Enter] .)
STAT – Get connection status.
CLR – Clear Connection.
PAR? n1,n2,n3 – Reads value of 1 parameters ( n1 = 1st parameter, n2 = 2nd, etc.).
Standard parameters are 1–22 .
SET? n1:m1,n2:m2,n3:m3 – Sets and reads parameters ( n1 = 1st parameter,
m1 = new value).
PROF – Sets standard set of parameters. CCITT profile 90 is available.
RESET – Reset connection.
INT – Send interrupt packet.
SET n1:m1,n2:m2,n3:m3 – Sets one or more parameters
( n1 = 1st parameter, m1 = new value).
HELP – Provides more information.
? – Same as HELP .
[Gnn], [Z], [Y], [R], [N] – Selection parameters; used to represent facilities in Call
Request packets (unless they are specified in autocall Call Requests):
[Gnn] = CUG ( nn is the CUG number)
[Z] = Group Send
[Y] = Priority
[R] = Reverse Charging
[N] = NUI
Port – displays the LP and port number to which you are connected, and the called
and calling addresses.
