F2=Status The Status Menu screen provides the status of the link, ports, and stations (see
Status Type below). An example of the Status screen is shown in Figure 4-5.
Configuration Number
This field is used to identify, by number, the configuration desired to identify the
unit to request status.
Configuration Name
If it is desired to send a status request, but the number is not known, the user may
enter a name. The program then initiates a search of the description field of each
configuration looking for a match. The program stops at the first match found.
Status Type
There are several different status types that may be sent to a TXPORT unit.
Figure 4-6 is an example of a typical Status screen. The following is a description
of each.
WAN Status.
(L) - LINK STATUS - This status provides the general status of the link (active or
inactive). Also included is the switch settings of the port (DTE/DCE, RS232/TDI,
and Split/Normal clock). The status of five modem signals (RTS, CTS, DTR,
DSR, and DCD) is also included. Each station on the link is then listed with an
individual status. Various individual statuses may displayed. These include whether
the station is on-line, off-line, receiving a message, transmitting a message, or
waiting for confirmation of a message. The line module and port fields must also
be filled in for this status.
