Command Prompt Commands
Ethernet
|
Type test_cnc Address Portnum timeout |
Where
|
Address= |
CNC's IP Address or host name to connect. (e.g. 192.168.0.1 or CNCBRASSTAG) |
|
Portnum= |
Port number of the DNC1/Ethernet (TCP) function. Important: The port number cannot be less than 5001. |
|
Timeout= |
Time out in seconds. The best time out value is different depending on the system. For example, in the case of a hi-speed network, 10 seconds is sufficient for time out. But, in the case of a low-speed telephone line, more than 60 seconds is better for time out. So you must specify the timeout value after the measurement of the system. |
HSSB
Type TEST_CNC without parameters to display all the currently configured FOCAS/HSSB node(s).
