19PK-900 Gateway Option Supplement
The EXPERT command controls your access to the TNC’s command set. Because some
new TNC owners understandably find the large number of available commands
confusing or daunting, this command limits the newcomer’s access to the com-
mands to the simplest or most often used. Generally, about half of the total
number of commands are available to you after a RESET (EXPERT OFF). Once you
feel confident using the TNC’s basic commands, turn EXPERT ON to explore and
try out its advanced command set.
With EXPERT OFF, expert-level commands can’t be accessed and won’t appear in
any output of the DISPLAY command—an attempt to use one of these commands will
result in the error message, “?EXPERT command.”
All immediate commands (e.g. CONNECT, PACKET) are “Novice” commands. The error
message for an Expert command is now separate from the unknown command mes-
sage:
cmd:FRICK
?EXPERT command
In Host mode, all commands are available regardless of the setting of EXPERT.
This command will not affect operation of AEA PAKRATT programs.
The following DISPLAY lists denote when a command is available while EXPERT is
OFF (“Novice”); “Retain” means the command keeps its setting during a REINIT
operation.
