18.2. Command Syntax
Most commands conform to the following conventions:
·
Commands normally begin with the ASCII "Control B"
character (written as
^B
throughout this manual).
·
To temporarily suppress the Command Echo for any
command, use the ^A character in place of the ^B character.
For example, if Command Echo is enabled and Command
^B03 (Send Site ID) is invoked, NetLink will echo the
command back to the polling device and send the Site ID
message. If ^A is substituted for ^B (e.g.
^A03
), the Site ID
message will be sent, but the command will
not
be echoed
back to the polling device.
·
Each command is invoked by pressing the
[Enter]
key.
·
A comma (
,
) is used to separate a command from its options
or parameters (e.g.
^B01,10
).
