Command Interface - Brainboxes BL-819 Product Manual

1.14. Command Interface

This interface has been developed primarily to support programming access to the configuration settings by an application
such as our own configuration application, but can also offer a powerful human operated (e.g. via PuTTY) command driven
interface in its own right. Additionally, the commands can be placed in a Text/script file and sent (e.g. by PuTTY) in one go to
the adapter. The "scr" command is strongly recommended for use in this scenario.
The command interface protocol is quite straightforward. Each command (see table and descriptions below) must be sent
over the COM port, followed by a Carriage return <CR>. This can be done in PuTTY just by typing each command and hitting
the Enter key.
There are up to 3 ways each command can be used.
1. On its own. This acts as a "query" command.
E.g. cod<CR>
Returns the current device class
2. With an "=" and parameter(s). This acts as a "set" command
E.g. cset=9600,n,1<CR>
Sets the current settings to 9600 baud, No Parity and 1 Stop Bit
Not all commands support this function as they are query commands only
3. With a "?" which acts as a "help" command
E.g. svc?<CR>
Returns a description of the command syntax and allowable parameters
