EQU

EQU <equate list>
This command causes any OPEN, CLOSE or TRIG/SCAN
commands addressed to any switching module on the <equate
list> to be carried out for all modules on the <equate list>. All
modules on the list are required to be identical.
The <equate list> is made up of the slot numbers of the switching
modules that are to be equated separated by a semi-colon (;).
Continuous groups of modules may be entered onto the <equate
list> by entering the first and last modules to appear on the list
joined by a hyphen (-). More than one equate group may be set up
in a single EQU statement by separating the equate groups with a
comma (,).
Example: EQU 1;3-6,2;9-11
This command will equate slots 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 as one equate
group and slots 2, 9, 10 and 11 as another.
All switching modules must be of the same type to be
accepted in the same equate list or the Option 01 will
generate an error.
Use of the EQU command will overwrite all previously
entered <equate list>s. An <equate list> of 0 may be
used to clear all equate groups.
When an <equate list> is entered, all switching
modules on the list adopt the state of the first module
to appear on the list.
