Site Controller III
Page 14 MDE-4315 CFN Series CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows NT · August 2004
Commands tell the site controller to perform particular actions, such as printing reports or
changing prices.
To enter a command, type the command on the terminal keyboard and press ENTER.
After the site controller finishes performing the action requested by a command, it will
respond with the current drive letter followed by an asterisk (P*) to show that it is ready to
accept another command. This letter-asterisk combination is called the command prompt,
since it prompts you to enter a command. Anytime you see the command prompt, the site
controller is ready to accept a command.
For example, if you type the PRINT DATE command and press ENTER, the terminal prints
the date and time, followed by the command prompt to indicate that the command has been
executed and the terminal is ready to accept another command.
If a command requires that you enter data, the terminal will ask a question—which is called a
data entry prompt—indicating what type of data you should enter. If the terminal displays a
data entry prompt:
• Type the data and press ENTER.
• If the command has several prompts, type the requested data and press ENTER after each
one.
• After the last prompt in the series, the terminal will print the command prompt to indicate
the command has been executed and the terminal is ready to accept another command.
To print the date, type PRINT DATE and press ENTER.
CFN3 will display the date.
Command prompt will be displayed.
To load the date:
1 Type LOAD DATE.
2 Enter the month (mm format).
3 Enter the day (dd format).
