Appendix C: Console Command Listing

Details about each of the acceptable commands that can be interpreted by the

2-Series dual bus control system are described in the following tables. Commands

are listed alphabetically. Each listing includes a description of the command, a list of

help menus

that contain the command, the proper syntax for entering the command,

definitions of parameters that may be included in the syntax, a list of possible

sources

for the command, the minimum CUZ with which the command is

recognized by the processor, and the specific processor group

that supports the

command. For a description of each detail listed for a given command, refer to the

SAMPLE COMMAND on page 22.

1. Help menus are defined in more detail with “Command Groups” on page 18.

2. Possible sources refers to the methods by which console commands are delivered to the control

system, as explained on page 16.

3. Processor groups are defined in more detail with “Processor Groups” on page 21.

NOTE: The entire command name (i.e., ADDMaster) may not need to be entered

for recognition. The capitalized letters of the command name listed in the syntax

(i.e., ADDM) are all that is required to interpret the command. However, as more

commands are added to the list over time, it may be necessary to expand the

recognizable abbreviation required for a command. Therefore, to avoid confusion in

the future, it is highly recommended to use the full command name if automating

commands or implementing the SIMPL Windows Console logic symbol.

NOTE: Not all parameters listed in the syntax are necessary. Parameters that are

contained within brackets "[…]" are optional. Furthermore (for the sake of the

commands shown in this appendix), parameters in lower case represent a placeholder

for some value or variable. Upper case parameters separated by a vertical mark "|"

(i.e., ON | OFF) are mutually exclusive of each other. Enter only one of the available

upper case parameters verbatim (interpretation is case insensitive). If the parameter

is listed in lower and upper case, only the upper case portion of the parameter is

necessary for interpretation.
