Shell commands are predefined operations of the shell itself and standard operations defined in the relevant command files, conforming to the provisions of the BCC/31 communication protocol, thus formally independent of the type of device connected.
The default shell commands are as follows:
Shell management: •CLEAR, clear all contents •TEXT, display text message •SLEEP, suspend command execution •CON[NECT], connect to device •DIS[CONNECT], disconnect from the device •RECON[NECT], re-connect to the device
General commands: •E[DIT], open specified file •B[ATCH], execution of command file (batch) •FUNZ, inline internal calculator •NFORMAT, default numeric format •NPREC, default numeric precision •RUN, external program execution
Device management: •PING, query communication timings •SYSINFO, query information about connected device •#(direct), execute device commands (directives) |
Variable management: •DV, display variable value •SV, set variable value •FV, force variable value •RV, release variable value •VARDEF, variable filter definition
Flash management: •FDEL, delete file on flash •FDIR, display flash content •FDISK, flash disk management •FFORMAT, flash formatting •FINIT, flash initialization •FLOAD, upload files to flash •FMEM, display flash information •FREN, rename files on flash •FSAVE, save file from flash •FTREE, display folder structure on flash •FMKDIR, create folder on flash •FRMDIR, delete folder from flash |
To obtain information on the device commands, you can use the HELP command: where available, a window will be opened with the relevant documentation available or alternatively information will be displayed in the contents of the shell itself.
The syntax of the command is as follows:
HELP <command> |
