At boot time, executing the following sequence enables to enter the
command mode:
Press and hold down the exclamation point (!) key.
Then, when an exclamation point (!) appears on the terminal or PC screen,
type xyz within 5 seconds to display the command mode prompt.
At any time: There is also the possibility for the ARF45-PRO device to enter
the command mode at any time, even while a connection with a remote
device is set up.
To enter the Command mode, execute the following sequence at any time:
- Enter the string “---” (this causes the ARF45-PRO to reset).
- Then press and hold down the exclamation point (!) key until an
exclamation point (!) appears on the terminal or PC screen and
then type “xyz” within 5 seconds to display the command mode
prompt.
Entering the command mode through a serial port connection causes the
ARF45-PRO device to be reset!
An alternative (to enter the command mode at any time) to using the above
procedure consists of using the modem emulation mode.
See in subsequent chapters how to configure this mode. Using this method
does not reset the ARF45-PRO.

provide diagnostic and status information only. To configure the device
server running on Evolution, you must be in the enable level or any of its
sub-levels. The level structure is depicted in the following figure:
