Enable or disable the verbose mode via this
command. For
X2@
:
0 = clear/none, default for Telnet connections;
responses are not echoed to the host
1 = verbose mode is on, default for RS-232
host control; responses are echoed to the
host and displayed to the user
2 = send tagged responses for queries
3 = verbose mode is on and tagged
responses are sent for queries.
N
If tagged responses are enabled, all read commands return the constant string + data, the same as for setting a value.
For example, for
E

, the response is Ipn•

rather than just the data.
N
Verbose mode is a communication mode in which the device responds with more information than it usually would—more than the device, itself, requires. For example,
the controller can send out unsolicited information (such as notice of a volume or input change or a change in some other setting). That is an example of a verbose (wordy)
relationship between the controller and a connected device. Verbose mode creates more network traffi c than usual, which can slow down network performance.
Verbose mode is usually enabled for troubleshooting and disabled for daily use.
For a direct RS-232 connection, the controller is set for verbose mode by default.
When the MLC is connected via Ethernet, verbose mode is disabled (by default) in order to reduce the amount of communication traffi c on the network.
If you want to use the verbose mode with a controller connected via Ethernet, this mode must be set to “on” each time you reconnect to the controller.
