Computer Port/Sdact - Simplex 4100 Operation

Operational Characteristics,

Computer Port/SDACT

Continued
Both TrueAlert appliances and the Virtual NACs will report their statuses on the
4100/4020's Computer Port. In addition, the SHOW command is expanded to
display the Virtual NAC and appliance 'function screen' data. The information
in the Unsolicited Output section also applies to the 4100/4020 SDACT.
The TrueAlert VNACs will also report unsolicited trouble status changes. They
report to the computer port in either address or symbolic format (SIG9 or 3-2-
44) or both ways depending on the terminal settings. VNACs also report their
control status (C0 for OFF, C1 for ON) as they change state.
CLIST and LIST Commands
The CLIST and LIST commands will operate exactly as on the current
4100/4020 except that TrueAlert appliances and VNACs may now be included
in the possible response.
SET Command
The SET command allows the control of TrueAlert VNACs. All operations
performed with the SET command on standard 4100/4020 Signal Circuits also
apply to the VNACs. Individual TrueAlert appliances cannot be controlled with
the SET command. If you attempt to do so, you will receive an appropriate error
message.
SHOW Command
The SHOW command will be expanded to display the "function screen"
information for both TrueAlert appliances and VNACs.
