localnode.setup.recall
(on page 9-153)
Example
To save the present setup as the internal user setup:
localnode.setup.save()

localnode.showerrors
Attribute
Automatic display of errors.
Usage
To read the show errors state:
errormode = localnode.showerrors
To write the show errors state:
localnode.showerrors = errormode
errormode
: Set to 0 or 1.
Remarks
If this attribute is set to 1, for any errors that are generated, the unit will automatically
display the errors stored in the error queue, and then clear the queue. Errors will be
processed at the end of executing a command message (just prior to issuing a
prompt if prompts are enabled).
If this attribute is set to 0, errors will be left in the error queue and must be explicitly
read or cleared.
When used in an expanded system (TSP-Link), localnode.showerrors is sent to the
Remote Master node only. Use node[N].showerrors (where N is the node number) to
send the command to any node in the system. See for details on TSP-Link.
Details
See
errorqueue functions and attribute
(see "errorqueue functions and attributes" on
page 9-123).

localnode.prompts
