The Terminal Window
The Terminal window functions as a terminal emulator connected to the
SMC. Commands typed here are executed by the motion controller after the
(Enter) or (;) (semi colon) key is pressed. Pressing the F3 key will auto
repeat the last command.
The Terminal window can also be used (by the SMC) to display controller
status information such as I/O, debug messages, input prompts, error
messages, etc.
The Paste button completes the transfer of the text (from the clipboard) onto
the Terminal window.
The Terminal window has a pop-up menu similar to the Editing window that
is accessed by clicking the right mouse button while the cursor is on the
Terminal window. The pop-up menu provides functions to communicate
with the controller such as enabling or disabling servo power, status
reporting, and logging features.
When the terminal window pop-up menu is active, the following menu will
appear:
