UMX-OPT-TX150R – User's Manual
5.8. Terminal Window
This general purpose terminal is intended mainly for testing and debugging purposes. All commands can be
used here that are discussed in the programmer's reference. The command text can be typed directly.
By default commands are automatically surrounded by framing brackets. Every sent command and every
received response gets an arrow (-> or <-) prefix, and has different font colors in order to help to distinguish.
The timecode in every row shows the exact time when the command was sent or the response received.
If the Command framing check box is unchecked, you can send multiple commands together, however in
this case you have to type in the framing brackets manually.
The terminal can be also opened after starting the LDC - press the Terminal button on the Device discovery
page on the bottom of the window.
TIPS AND TRICKS: The typed commands can be "browsed" when the cursor is in the command line and
you press the up button on the keyboard. The commands are stored until the LDC is closed.
