The *GUI command shuts down all applications running under remote contol and restores
the GUI interface. This command may take some time to finish processing. The
":SYSTem:ERRor?" query will still indicate when *GUI is complete, but most other remote
control commands (except *REM, *RST, etc.) will no longer work.
> *GUI
Return to GUI mode, make take a while...

in the way the script arguments are processed.
RC-Transport.pl - to connect to a Transport Module in a T-BERD/MTS-8000
Usage:
perl RC-Transport.pl <unit ip> <slice #>
RC-6000A.pl - to connect to an MSAM module a T-BERD/MTS-6000A
Usage:
perl RC-6000A.pl <unit ip>
RC-DMC.pl - to connect to an MSAM module a T-BERD/MTS-8000 dual MSAM carrier
Usage:
perl RC-DMC.pl <unit ip> <side> <slice #>
RC-5800.pl - to connect to an MTS-5800
Usage:
perl RC-5800.pl <unit ip>
Script parameters:
–
<unit ip>
- the IP address of the unit
