About Terminal Commands
The TopKAT Terminal Commands can be accessed by connecting a terminal to Port 2 or
Port 3 on the Communications Interface PCB. Locate the RS-232/RS-422 jumpers on the
Communications I/F PCB and make sure they are set correctly and that the terminal cable is
connected to the correct connector (RS-232 or RS-422).
Terminal commands may be entered in their entirety or in an abbreviated format. The
abbreviated format is shown in each command heading and as the entry in the first step of each
command sequence.
Several control key sequences are available to aid you in navigating the terminal commands.
• You can move backward and forward through the terminal command sequence by
pressing CTRL-O or the UP arrow key repeatedly until the required level is reached.
Scrolling back at a prompt where there is no previous prompt redisplays the prompt.
• CTRL-L and ENTER moves you to the prior command level.
• Pressing CTRL-C returns you to the CMD> prompt.
For example: if you are using the COnfigure SYstem command and have selected All and are
at one of the subprompts, pressing CTRL-O or up arrow returns you to the previous prompt.
Pressing CTRL-L and ENTER returns you to the main prompt (Configure System menu).
Pressing CTRL-C returns you to the CMD> prompt.
With all of the print commands, you can use the “¦more” modifier to display a set number of
lines on the screen. When you are done viewing the screen contents, pressing ENTER will
restart the screen display and increment one line; pressing the spacebar will increment the
screen by the number of lines specified in the L MO command (Example of command with
more modifier: PR TR ¦ more).
Ensure that you check the CPU Board Port x Baud Rate settings so they match the Terminal
baud rate.
