Table 2 summarizes the MR set commands.
Access to meters
Meters are accessed from a standard data terminal (TTY) or a Display
Telephone equipped with a Message Registration key/lamp pair. The TTY
must be defined in the configuration record as a BGD. The BGD can be used
exclusively for meter access of the two background features Automatic Wake
Up (AWU) and room status information (RMS), or it can be shared with other
functions:
— Erase the pulse count units stored on a meter.
— Change the pulse count units stored on a meter.
— Search for nonzero meters (TTY only).
— Read the pulse count units stored on a meter.
— Print the pulse count units stored on meters (TTY only).
