2. Third Party Disconnect: (Supervisor Mode Only) The /D
command is issued from your resident port to disconnect
two third party ports. For example, if your Resident Port is
Port 1, a Third Party Disconnect would be used to
disconnect Port 3 from Port 4.
a) The /D command uses the format: /D xx XX
[Enter], where xx and XX are the numbers of the ports
that you wish to disconnect.
b) The /D (Disconnect) command can only be invoked by
a port with access to Supervisor Level commands.
c) The /D command can specify both connected ports, or
either of the two ports. For example, if Port 1 is your
resident port, any of the following commands can be
used to disconnect Port 3 from Port 4:
/D34[Enter]
or
/D 3 [Enter]
or
/D 4 [Enter]
3. No Activity Timeout: Providing the Timeout feature is
enabled at either connected port, the No Activity Timeout
can disconnect Resident Ports, or Third Party Ports.
a) RS232 Ports: To configure the Timeout Feature for the
RS232 Ports, invoke the /P command to display the
Port Configuration Menu for the desired port as
described in Section 5.5.3. Option 11 enables and
defines the Timeout Feature.
b) When the Timeout Feature is enabled, the port will
automatically disconnect if no data is received for the
defined Timeout Period.
Notes:
·
When connected ports time out, both ports will exit
command mode after disconnecting.
·
When an unconnected port is left in Command
Mode and no additional data activity is detected,
the port will automatically exit Command Mode
when its defined timeout value elapses.
