Operation
To disconnect ports, proceed as follows:
1. Resident Disconnect: Disconnects your resident port from another
port. For example, if you are communicating via Port 3, and Port 3 is
connected to Port 4, a Resident Disconnect would be used to disassociate
the two ports. The APS-8/16M offers two different Resident Disconnect
command formats; the One Character Format and the Three Character
Format (for more information, please refer to Section 5.5.3.):
a) One Character (Default): When the One Character Disconnect
Sequence is selected, simply enter the selected Logoff Character
once (Default = ^X ([Ctrl] plus [X])). Note that it is not necessary
to enter a carriage return before or after the Logoff Character.
b) Three Characters: Uses the format [Enter] LLL[Enter], where
L is the Logoff Character. For example, if the Logoff Character
is " +", then the three character disconnect sequence would be
[Enter] +++[Enter].
c) If the default Resident Disconnect Sequence is not compatible with
your application, both the command format and Logoff Character
can be redefined via the Port Configuration menus, as described in
Section 5.5.3.
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 could
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 that
permits Supervisor Mode.
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:
/D 3 4 [Enter]
or
/D 3 [Enter]
or
/D 4 [Enter]
