5.3. Command/Menu Conventions

When invoking RPC-4840N commands and selecting items from

configuration menus, note the following:

·

To display the Help Screen, type /H [Enter].

·

All RPC commands can be invoked at the RPC> command

prompt, or from the General Parameters Menu, Port

Parameters Menus or Network Parameters Menu.

·

RPC commands are not case sensitive.

·

All commands are invoked by pressing [Enter].

·

To select an item from a menu, key in the number for the

item and press [Enter]. To exit from a menu, press [Esc] at

any time. Parameters defined up to that point will be saved.

The ",Y" option can temporarily suppress the "Sure?"

confirmation prompt. The ",Y" option is entered at the end

of the command line, immediately following the command

or argument. For example, to reset the network port without

displaying the "Sure?" prompt, type /T,Y [Enter].

5.4. Defining General Parameters

When the "RPC>" prompt appears, type /G [Enter] to display

the General Parameters menu (Figure 5.3). Note that this menu

is not available in User Mode. The General Parameters menu

offers the following options:

1. System Password: (Up to 16 characters, case-sensitive)

When the System Password is defined, the RPC will

display a prompt before allowing access to command

mode. If the System Password is entered, the RPC will

start-up in System Mode. To define the System Password,

type 1 and press [Enter]. (Default = undefined).
Note: If the System Password is not defined, the

password prompt will not be displayed, and the RPC

will always start-up in System Mode.

2. Site ID: Defines a text string (up to 32 characters) that is

often used to indicate the installation site. To define the

Site ID, type 2 and press [Enter]. (Default = undefined).
