Summary of Freedom System commands
There are two sets of commands for the Maxicom
2
Freedom System:
• The first set of commands are used while on-line with a CCU. These commands are the most commonly used
commands and are available to all of the passwords. See “Commands used while on-line with a CCU,” below.
• The second set of commands controls the features within Maxicom
2
. These commands are available only after
entering the master password. In order to use the set of commands that control Maxicom
2
, the user simply
specifies site number 0. See “Commands used to control Maxicom
2
features,” pg. 23.
As you read through these commands, you will notice that:
•
“1” always means you are turning something on (a site, a schedule,
a station, etc.).
• “2” always means you are turning something off (a site, a schedule,
a station, etc.).
