< < >
A sequential sequence of ASCII characters will form the data portion
of the message. You will be prompted for the length of the data portion
of the message. A number from 1 to 2010 is allowed.
Message Loopback Options
The F9 and F10 commands, together with the above “send message”
commands can be used to set up some automatic message sending and
loopback tests. When in loopback mode, RSUSER will cause a
message to be sent out for a definable amount of time (called “time
between”) after every time one is received from the network (or we
obtain a fail response to a send). The sent message will be the same
mode and length as the last message sent by a “send messages”
command above. We also send another packet if we don’t receive a
failure response, or a network packet within a definable time (called
“timeout”).
<F9>
Toggles automatic packet sending (loopback mode) on and off.
<F10>
Sets the timing parameters “time between” and “timeout”. These values
will be reset back to defaults (0 and 60 seconds respectively) whenever
RSUSER is executed.
For throughput tests where the network is bouncing back packets, the
values of 0 and 60 is recommended.
For throughput tests where the network doesn’t bounce back packets,
the values of 5 and 5 are recommended. This will send a packet every
five seconds (which allows time for retries etc.)
Reprogramming Modems
A self-extracting loader program is supplied for every software
upgrade. Refer to Appendix D - Wavenet Application Loader on page
171.
