Using MOTLoad
2.1 Overview
This chapter describes various command line characteristics, as well as the MOTLoad Manual
Page Format.
Interaction with MOTLoad is performed via a command line interface through a serial port on
the SBC, which is connected to a terminal or terminal emulator (for example, Window’s
Hypercomm). The default MOTLoad serial port settings are: 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity.
2.1.1 Command Line Interface
The MOTLoad command line interface is similar to a UNIX command line shell interface.
Commands are initiated by entering a valid MOTLoad command (a text string) at the MOTLoad
command line prompt and pressing the carriage-return key to signify the end of input.
MOTLoad then performs the specified action. The MOTLoad command line prompt is shown
below.
Note: The generic command prompt designation of MOTLoad is for documentation purposes
only. The exact command prompt designation is determined by the product being purchased,
for example, MVME6100, MVME5500, and so on.
If an invalid MOTLoad command is entered at the MOTLoad command line prompt, MOTLoad
displays a message that the command was not found.
Example:
MOTLoad>
mytest
"mytest" not found
MOTLoad>
If the user enters a partial MOTLoad command string that can be resolved to a unique valid
MOTLoad command and presses the carriage-return key, the command will be executed as if
the entire command string had been entered. This feature is a user input shortcut that
minimizes the required amount of command line input. MOTLoad is an ever changing firmware
package, so user input shortcuts may change as command additions are made.
