6.3. The Port Parameters Screens (/W)

The /W command displays more detailed information about an individual APS port. Rather

than listing connection information for all ports like the Port Status Screens, the Port

Parameters screen lists all defined parameters for a specific port.
The /W command is available in both Supervisor Mode and User Mode. Note however, that

when you log in with a Port (User) password, the APS will only display information regarding

your resident port.
If the Supervisor Mode is active, the Port Parameters Screens offer the option to either display

or suppress Port Passwords. Normally, when /W is invoked, the Password field will read either

“defined” or “undefined”, depending upon whether or not the port’s password has been

specified. To display the Port Parameters Screen with the Port Password, type /WP, followed

by the desired port number, and then press [Enter]. Note that the /WP command option is not

available in User Mode.
The /W command uses the following format:

/W[P] xx [Enter]

Where:

P

Is the command option to display port passwords. Note that when this option is

included (e.g. /WP 5), the Port Parameters Screen will display the Port Password, if

defined. (Supervisor Mode Only).

xx

is the desired port number.
