the Web Browser Interface, these parameters are found by placing the cursor over the "Network
Configuration" link on the left hand side of the screen, and then clicking on the "Network Port

•
Administrator Mode:
Permits/denies port access to accounts that allow Administrator or
SuperUser level commands. When enabled (Permit), the port will be allowed to invoke
Administrator and SuperUser level commands, providing they are issued by an account
that permits them. If disabled (Deny), then accounts that permit Administrator and
SuperUser level commands will not be allowed to access command mode via this port.
(Default = Permit)
•
Logoff Character:
Defines the Logoff Character for this port. This determines which
command(s) must be issued at this port in order to disconnect from a second port.
(Default =
^X
(
[Ctrl]
plus
[X]
).)
Note:
The Sequence Disconnect parameter can be used to pick a one character or a
three character logoff sequence.
•
Sequence Disconnect:
Enables/Disables and configures the Resident Disconnect
command. Offers the option to either disable the Sequence Disconnect, or select a one
character, or three character command format. (Default = One Character).
Notes:
• The One Character Disconnect is intended for situations where the destination
port should
not
receive the disconnect command. When the Three Character
format is selected, the disconnect sequence
will
pass through to the destination
port prior to breaking the connection.
• When Three Character format is selected, the Resident Disconnect uses the
format "
[Enter]
LLL
[Enter]
", where
L
is the selected Logoff Character.
•
Inactivity Timeout:
Enables and selects the Inactivity Timeout period for the Network
Port. If enabled, and the port does not receive or transmit data for the specified time
period, the port will disconnect. (Default = 5 Minutes).
•
Command Echo:
Enables or Disables the command echo for the Network Port.
(Default = On).
•
Accept Break:
Determines whether the port will accept breaks received from the attached
device, and pass them along to a connected port. When enabled, breaks received at this
port will be passed to any port this port is connected to, and sent to the device connected to
the other port. When disabled, breaks will be refused at this port. (Default = On.)
•
Multiple Logins:
(Text Interface Only) If the RPS is installed in an environment that
does not
include communication via an open network (local communication only), then the
Multiple Logins parameter can be used to determine whether or not multiple users will be
able to communicate with the unit at the same time. If this parameter is set to "Off" then
only one user will be allowed to communicate with the unit at a time. (Default = On.)
