2. The /tffs0> prompt appears. Type commands at the /tffs0> prompt, and press
Enter after each command.
This section describes how to send commands through an interactive command line
interface session. The generator parses command lines one at a time. Command lines
must be terminated with a carriage return (<cr>). The generator immediately echoes each
character as it is received and places it in a command line buffer. Commands are not case
sensitive.
When sending multiple commands at once, separate each command with a semi-colon.
For example, to load the 480p59 format with the SMTPEbar image, send the following
commands:
FMTL
480p59
IMGL
SMPTEbar
ALLU
