Displays the port status automatically.
Name Assign the port name. Valid characters are letters, numbers, dashes (-), periods,
and underscores ( _ ).
Banner Input the text to display when a user connects to a device port by means of Telnet,
SSH, or TCP. If authentication is enabled for the device port, the banner displays
once the user successfully logs in. Blank is the default.
Break Sequence Enter a series of one to ten characters that users can enter on the command line
interface to send a break signal to the external device. A suggested value is
Esc+B (escape key, then uppercase “B” performed quickly but not
simultaneously). You would specify this value as \x1bB, which is hexadecimal (\x)
character 27 (1B) followed by a B.
View Port Log Seq Enter the key sequence used to view the Port Log while in Connect Direct mode.
Non-printing characters can be specified by giving their hexadecimal code (see
Break Sequence above). The default is Esc+V.
View Port Log Select to allow the user to enter the View Port Log Sequence to view the Port Log
during Connect Direct mode. The default is disabled.
Logging Click the Settings link to configure file logging, email logging, local logging, USB
logging, or PC Card logging. (See Device Ports – Logging on page 96.)
Zero Port Counters Resets all of the numerical values in the Port Counters table at the bottom of the
page to zero (0).
Connected to Select the type of device connected to the device port. The SLC console manager
supports the SLP power manager (SLP8 and SLP16) and Sensorsoft devices. If
the type of device is not listed, select undefined.
If you select anything other than undefined, click Device Commands. The web
page displays for the device you selected.
