The XAP 400 accepts serial commands through the serial port or the expansion bus. The commands in this manual
pertain only to the XAP 400. RS-232 serial port protocol is 9,600, 19,200, 38,400 (default), or 57,600 baud; 8
bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.

Conventions

The following typographic conventions are used in this document to describe the different serial commands. use the
Command structure section and the examples as a guide when creating your serial commands.

Convention

Description

Parameters enclosed in < > indicate a mandatory parameter.

[X]

Parameters enclosed in [ ] indicate an optional parameter.

1-8

Parameters separated by a - indicate a range between the values.

4,7,9

Parameters separated by a , indicate a list of available values.

MREF

Words in uppercase bold indicate command text.

DEVICE

Indicates the device type and device number on the expansion bus network. It is composed of a
device type character and a device number. The device type for the XAP 400 is always 7 and the
device ID will always be 0—7, or * (to select all 400 units).

Command structure

Commands can be either UPPER CASE or lower case. Also, extra spaces or tabs between arguments in text commands
are allowed. Return values are always in upper case. In order for a command to be recognized by the serial port, the
command must be terminated by a carriage return.

The structure of serial commands is as follows: #DEVICE COMMAND [X] [X]

#

indicates the start of a command line

DEVICE

represents the device type and device number

COMMAND

is the command text

[X] [X]

represents any additional options in the order that they
appear in the command descriptions that follow

Example

A command to enable auto-answer on the XAP 400 device “0” would have the command line:
#70 AA 1 1. In this command line, 7=XAP 400, 0=unit 0, AA=command, 1=Telco channel 1, 1=on state. If a
command calls for a “null” value, leave a blank in the command line. For example, “#70 AA” would return the
current auto-answer state on device 70.

Command responses will have a carriage return line feed. Example: #70 AA 1 1 carriage return line feed.
