3.1.2

System commands” group for general diagnostics

Commands

”deb”, ”ta”, ”mb”, ”du addr”, ”rw addr”, ”rb addr”, ”rd addr”, ”sw addr”, ”sb addr”,

”sd addr”

and

”uptime”

are used for troubleshooting and repair of the device in a factory.

Manufacturer

strongly recommends not to use these commands during common operation.

Other system commands

”show”

(configuration statement) and

?’

(

Help”) are described in previous part of

section

3.1

.

By using of

”port”

command an actual setting of module ports can be displayed. This command is intended only

for module diagnostics.

3.1.3

Commands for writing of configuration and reset

The module contains two sets of configuration: operating configuration and saved configuration. At the start of the
system the module copies saved configuration to operating configuration, with which continues to work. If the user
changes configuration parameters, it does so only in operating configuration.

If the current operating configuration was not stored to FLASH memory, the module returns to the saved configura-
tion after reset. If the parameter should be changed only temporarily (for example shorten of the broadcasting period
during installation), it is not necessary to save operating configuration in FLASH memory (after the work finishing
module can be returned to normal configuration by its reset). If the parameter should be changed permanently,
there is necessary to save configuration to FLASH memory.

If operating configuration corresponds to the saved set (ie. there are no differences between commands in FLASH
and in the operating set), the module will

report“ prompt in the format ”mon#”. If operating configuration was

changed so that it no longer matches to the saved set, the module will report prompt in the format ”cfg#”.

Every time the current configuration is saved into FLASH memory the value of the

Configuration version” param-

eter increases by one and the prompt changes to ”mon#”. The parameter resets to zero by erasing of the FLASH
memory.

Current operating configuration can be displayed by using of

”show”

command (see paragraph

3.1.1

):

cfg#show

Current operating configuration can be rewrite the to FLASH memory by using of

”write”

command:

cfg#write
Writing config ... OK, version 3

Reading of the configuration from FLASH memory can be done by by using of

”cread”

command (for older some

modifications the command is

”read”

):

cfg#cread
Reading config ... OK, version 3

The configuration can be erased in Flash memory by using of

”clear”

command:

cfg#clear
Clearing configuration ... OK, version

This command deletes all configuration parameters from the FLASH memory, so it is necessary to set them again.
If after erasing all parameters in FLASH memory the module goes to reset, default set of parameters (configured
in the program of the device) is duplicated to FLASH memory. There is only one exception - frequency constant
keeps the actual value also after cleaning of FLASH memory by ”clean” command.

This command is recommended to use only by users with good knowledge of the system or after
consultaion with the manufacturer.

The module reset can be performed by using of

”reset”

command.
