PATCH
This command enables you to communicate directly with an external device connected to the
RS232 port when you call ISACC using a modem. This command also allows you to establish
an online session with an ISACC unit not connected to your PC, but through the Master unit.
This is called network patching.
To communicate with an external device connected to ISACC's RS232 port, type patch
after an ISACC prompt:
ISACC>patch
To communicate with ISACC units in a network through the master, the patch command is
followed by the node number. This can be used remotely or locally. The following example
patches to the ISACC unit with node number 2:
ISACC>patch 2
Using the above example, you will receive the message "Connecting to network 2." Type the
command SHOW SYSTEM. The system parameters of the network unit #2 will now be
listed. You are online with that unit and may now program it. To return to the Master unit,
type the command EXIT, press ENTER and then press CTRL Z. If you type the command
SHOW SYSTEM, you should see the Master's system parameters.
HELP
The HELP command provides a list of all valid KEYWORDS and STAND ALONE com-
mands.
To display the command list, type help after an ISACC prompt:
