Batch Up/Download Overview
For advanced users with SUPERVISOR mode enabled, there is a batch feature available to
simplify configuring (or re-configuring) multiple SC-ADT units. This feature allows the user to
upload an ASCII text batch script from a pre-configured SC-ADT via the FTP/TFTP get
operation. Use the show config command to view the batch script that would be generated
from the SC-ADT for a subsequent FTP/TFTP upload. This text file may be modified and/or
downloaded to the same SC-ADT or another SC-ADT via FTP/TFTP in ACSII mode.
A batch script file may also be created by a text editor (NotePad) and then downloaded from
terminal emulation program (i.e., MS HyperTerminal) at the CTRL interface. Users can initially
setup the SC-ADT from a predefined configuration file, rather than entering one command at a time.
Special Considerations for Batch Files
•
You must be in SUPERVISOR mode to execute a batch file, since batch script files use the
configure command.
•
You must be in ADMIN mode if the batch script file contains user accounts configuration.
•
The downloaded batch script file will reside in the batch queue. The following commands can
then be used on the file:
•
Use the batch show command to view the batch script file in the batch queue.
•
Use the batch run command to execute the batch script file in the batch queue.
•
An execution of the batch run command will terminate at any invalid command string.
All commands executed up to that point will be in affect.
Batch Download Procedure
1. To use batch download, make a plain text file (using Notepad) with the first and last lines as:
batch begin
batch end
2. Between the begin and end lines, type valid SC-ADT commands along with all
arguments.
3. To use the batch download feature, set the file transfer settings of the terminal emulation
program to wait for remote character echo. Set Line Termination to CR and Line Terminating
Timing to 1 mSec.
4.
Enter SUPERVISOR mode or ADMIN mode and activate the file transfer.
5. When the ADT-16# prompt returns to the screen, type batch show to view the
downloaded commands. If desired, type batch run to execute the file.
