7. The Status Screens
The Text Interface includes a series of status screens can be used to display
connection status, outlet status and communication parameters for the RS232
ports, Internal Modem Port and Network Port and also summarize currently
defined user passwords and accounts. There are four different status screens;
The Main Status Screen (/S), the Network Status Screen (/SN), the Port
Diagnostics Screen (/SD), the Port Parameters Screens (/W) and the
User Directory (/V).
Note: With the exception of the User Directory, most of the status
screens discussed in this section are only available via the Text
Interface.
7.1. The Main Status Screen (/S)
The Main Status Screen lists the general status of the CMS-6R4's six RS-232
ports, Internal Modem Port and also the On/Off status of the four switched
outlets. To display the Main Status Screen, access the Text Interface command
mode and type /S [Enter], the Main Status Screen will appear as shown in
Figure 7.1.
Note that the screen format will vary, depending upon whether your password
permits or denies access to Supervisor commands. If the password entered at
login does not allow Supervisor commands, then the Main Status Screen will
only display the status of the ports and outlets that are allowed by that account.
The Main Status Screen lists the following items:
Port Section:
• Port: The Port Number.
• Name: The user-defined name for each port.
• Command Access: The Status of the Invalid Access Lockout feature at
each port.
• Status: The connect status of each port.
■
If the port is connected to an RS232 port, this column will list the
number of the other port in "c-nn" format, where "nn" is the number of
the port connected to this port (for example, " C-03".)
■
If the connected port is listed as " N-xx" (where "xx" is a number), this
indicates that the RS232 port is connected to the Network port. The
numbers indicate which of the available Telnet sessions is being used
(e.g., " N-03").
