To select common parameters for all APS RS-232 ports, proceed
as follows:
1. Access the APS command mode. If the password prompt is
displayed, key in your Supervisor Level Password.
2. At the command prompt, type /CP and press [Enter], the
menu shown in Figure 5.3 will be displayed.
3. Selecting Parameters: To select parameters to be copied,
key in the number for the desired parameter, press [Enter],
and then follow the instructions in the submenu. Note that
it is not necessary to define all port parameters, for
example, the /CP command could be used to select only the
Baud Rate for all ports.
Note: The /CP command will only copy the
parameters that are currently displayed by the Copy
Port Parameters menu. Note that although the Port
Password is not displayed, the selected password will
be copied if the field for this item reads “defined”.
4. Clear Menu: After defining several parameters, if you
wish to clear the /CP menu and start again, type - (dash)
and press [Enter], the menu will be reset.
