occur in real time on HyperTerminal.
f) Type ‘M’ [enter] to toggle radio traffic monitoring to OFF. This will eliminate additional messages on the

A summary of all common commands is shown in figure 9.
Gateway will receive both Dispense Events and Heartbeat Events. A Dispenser Event occurs whenever a
radio-equipped dispenser on the Gateway’s network is activated. A Heartbeat Event occurs at regular intervals
and serves as a message from a device on the network to the Gateway to announce that it is still operational.
The events will be displayed in HyperTerminal as shown in Figure 10.
