CH
CL
CP <chassis ID>
CS <chassis ID>
The CH command simply lists an abridged help screen list of commands for
reporting chassis status.
The CL command lists all cards installed in a chassis, with the exclusion of the
control card (which is assumed to be present if the user is accessing the user
interface). The cards are listed on separate lines according to internal chassis
number. Upper case letters denote that a card is present, while lower case
letters denote that a card slot is empty.
The CP command displays information regarding the redundant power supplies
and switch card temperatures. A chassis ID number must be specified, although
any internal chassis number will report the same information. Power supplies are
reported either as OK or Failed. Switch card temperatures are reported in order
from left to right as viewed from behind the chassis. Temperatures are reported
either in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius, depending upon the setting on
DIP switch three (SW 3) on the control card. If the Matrix-Hub is to be used in
