Displaying Port Statistics

FastLink II's Port Statistics display provides statistics on data traffic to help diagnose any problems that you may
have. Note that the statistics are cleared each time you reload the FastLink II ODI driver, and they are
cumulative over all connection sessions.
Two types of statistic are shown: Packet Statistics and Character Driver Statistics.

Packet Statistics show success and error counts based on entire packets of data.
Character Driver Statistics show success and error counts on a per-character basis for the low-level
driver that operates the serial port.

connection, or the response to a password
prompt (if you selected Prompt for Password)
Wait until the specified time has elapsed. The

When the script first starts, a timeout of 120
seconds (2 minutes) is used. The timeout
command overrides any previous timeout.
The time during which a PROMPT command is
waiting for input is not included in the timeout
period.
