In the System I/O RDS control screen, you can set the RDS Terminal control security
by specifying an RDS IP address from which to accept commands. Once set, this IP
will be the only IP that can connect to the unit to update RDS. The 8500S will default
to 0.0.0.0, which will allow any IP to connect to the RDS terminal control.
To prevent the Optimod from disconnecting and being unable to reconnect if the
terminal connection drops out temporarily, set the TIMEOUT value (as shown in
Table 2-1) to the maximum expected duration of the dropout (in minutes). Default is
4 minutes. Note that the timeout reverts to the default each new connection; if you
change the timeout for one connection, it is not retained for the next one.
Table 2-2 lists the terminal commands.
Note that you can fetch the status of the RDS generator as follows:
[command] ? returns current value
ST returns current value of all controls
HELP returns a list of the RDS terminal commands
↵ = CR/LF
in Table 2-2
