6.2.3.2. Disconnecting Ports
There are three different methods for disconnecting ports, the Resident
Disconnection, the Third Party Disconnection, and the No Activity Timeout.
Providing the Timeout feature is enabled, a No Activity Timeout will
disconnect resident ports or third party ports.
Note: The "DTR Output" parameter in the Port Parameters Menu
determines how the DTR signal will react when the port disconnects.
The DTR signal can either be held low, held high, or pulsed and then
held high.
1. Resident Disconnection: Disconnects your resident port from another
port. For example, if you are communicating via Port 3, and Port 3
is connected to Port 4, a Resident Disconnection would be used to
disassociate the two ports. The CMS-6R4 offers two different Resident
Disconnection command formats; the One Character Format and the
Three Character Format (for more information, please refer to
Sections 5.5.2 and 5.5.3.):
Note:
The Resident Disconnection methods discussed here cannot
be used to terminate a Telnet "Direct Connection" or an outbound
Telnet connection. Direct Connections are terminated using the
Telnet program’s disconnect command, and outbound connections are
terminated by invoking the ^] (Control plus Right Bracket) command.
For more information, please refer to Section 6.6..
a) One Character (Default): When the One Character Disconnection
Sequence is selected, simply enter the selected Logoff Character
once (Default = ^X ([Ctrl] plus [X])). Note that it is not necessary
to enter a carriage return before or after the Logoff Character.
b) Three Characters: Uses the format "[Enter]LLL[Enter]", where
L is the selected Logoff Character. For example, if the Logoff
Character is defined as " +", then the three character disconnect
sequence would be [Enter] +++[Enter].
c) If the default Resident Disconnect Sequence is not compatible with
your application, both the command format and Logoff Character
can be redefined via the Port Configuration menus, as described in
Sections 5.5.2 and 5.5.3.
