Command Response
When commands are sent to the MDS, the unit can respond with
either verbose (English Text) or terse messages (numeric /
abbreviated). The default message type for all MDS ports can be
set to either terse or verbose by configuring Setup Switch Five.
After the MDS has been installed and configured, the Port
Configuration (/P) command can be used to specify an individual
response message format for each port. In addition to the Terse
and Verbose response modes, the /P command can also select the
Quiet Mode. When the Quiet Mode is selected, the port will
not
send messages in response to commands.
The table below summarizes the various response messages for
both the Terse and Verbose modes.
