Initializing The Spm Software - AT&T MERLIN LEGEND Release 2.0 System Programming And Maintenance Manual

System Programming and Maintenance (SPM)

Initializing the SPM Software

To run correctly, the DOS version of SPM requires certain information
(transmission speed, type of monitor, etc.). This information needs to be
supplied only once, the first time you run SPM.
The information provided during the initialization process is written to the SPM
configuration file (ams.cfg). If you need to change this information at some
later time, you can do so in either of the following ways:
Invoke SPM with one or more of the following options, for example,
spm -com1 -s1200 -color -l french
Any of these options changes the information in ams.cfg.
spm -com1
spm -com2
spm -s1200
spm -s2400
spm -color
spm - m o n o
spm -l english
spm -l french
spm -l spanish
Edit the ams.cfg file. (If you are unsure about editing the file, you can
remove it, You are prompted to reinitialize the next time you invoke
SPM.)
