TTY Status Line Monitor

This display shows the status input lines sensed by RCP8. To enter the status line monitor from the Main menu, type monitor status.

RCP> monitor status

Hardware Electrical Inputs

On

The characters "-" are printed under each unused status input. For the used inputs, the word ON is printed if the line is asserted, and blank space appears if the line is not asserted.

To switch to an alternate presentation that displays the internal status of each condition, type alt. This is different from the condition of the hardware input line because the status may be coming from another source, or may be spoofed from the requested control.

If auxiliary status lines have been enabled, you can switch to the following bit presentation by typing alt. In the following example, 4 bytes of optional status have been selected in the site custom menu. High inputs are shown as a 1, and low inputs are shown as a "." .

The Monitor Status command uses the / sub-command to toggle between the requested and qualified versions of the primary and auxiliary status bits, as well as the direct hardware inputs themselves.

The distinction between requested and qualified status bits exists because the status bits can appear on the left side of logic equations. See Logic Equation Control Qualifiers.
