setesc
The setesc command resets the default escape sequence for invoking RCM. The
escape sequence can be any character string. A typical sequence consists of 2 or
more characters, to a maximum of 15 characters. The escape sequence is stored in
the module's on-board NVRAM.
NOTE: Be sure to record the new escape sequence. Although the factory defaults
can be restored if you forget the escape sequence, this requires resetting the EN
RCM switch on the RCM switchpack.
The following sample escape sequence consists of 5 iterations of the Ctrl key and the
letter "o".
RCM>setesc
^o^o^o^o^o
RCM>
If the escape sequence entered exceeds 15 characters, the command fails with the
message:
*** ERROR ***
When changing the default escape sequence, avoid using special characters that are
used by the system's terminal emulator or applications.
Control characters are not echoed when entering the escape sequence. Use the status
command to verify the complete escape sequence.
status
The status command displays the current state of the system sensors, as well as the
current escape sequence and alarm information. The following is an example of the
display.
