3.1.120 transparentMode

Name

transparentMode—establishes a serial connection to another host (for example, a UNIX host)
through the currently active serial connection. This is useful if the device to which the
transparent serial connection is being made does not have a physical serial port (e.g., a PrPMC
slave module). Once a connection is established, the MOTLoad prompt from the new host
becomes active and all MOTLoad commands supported by the new host become available. The
original serial port connection can be re-established by typing in the Ctrl-A exit sequence.

Synopsis
