FC310 Services Software Commands
0
The FC310 Services Software is resident on each FC310 Router board,
and is used to configure the router for use in the Quantum ATL M1500
library. The software uses a Command Line Interface (CLI) that is
usable with any PC and a terminal emulation program such as
HyperTerminal or ProComm.

The Command Line Interface provides access to the FC310 services
through a set of ASCII-based command lines. Commands have four
types of operation:
• Immediate—cause an immediate action; not preceded by a get or
set operation.
• Get—returns the current value of a parameter or setting. This
command may be abbreviated to “g”.
• Set—changes the value of a parameter or setting. This command
may be abbreviated “s”, and does not take effect until a
SaveConfiguration command is sent.
• Usage—if the form of an operation cannot be determined, it is
assumed to be the “Usage” form and a brief help message is
displayed.
The commands are not case sensitive.
Decimal numbers may be entered as raw numerical input, such as 123.
Octal numbers must be preceded by the number 0, for example 0713.
Hexadecimal numbers must be preceded by the C-style of 0x prefix,
such as 9x1FA4.
Quoted strings are treated as a single parameter for any command
which expects character input, regardless of space in the string.
Several non-immediate commands require a
SaveConfiguration
before
their modified parameters take effect. When such a command is
executed an asterisk appears next to the command line prompt.
