Intrinsic Help Commands
Intrinsic help commands are commands that can be used in any tree level as a basic shell
command tool. Below is the list of available intrinsic commands.
pop: Moves the command shell to the previous level. When issued from the main shell dir-
ectory (i.e., the root) this disconnects the session.
root: Moves the command shell to point to the main shell directory. This is a convenience com-
mand for navigating the command shell. The command “root pop <Enter>” disconnects the
session.
exit: Exits the Telnet client session while it is active. This command has no effect if it is
executed from a serial session.
trace: Displays the current contents of the trace buffers. Most of the commands currently do
not use the trace buffer facility. It is normal that the trace buffers are empty.
clear: Clears the trace buffers.
stamp: Queries the time stamp of the internal operating system clock, which is set to zero
when the SyncServer is powered on. The time stamp of the internal operating system clock
is in milliseconds.
history: Displays the last fifteen commands that have been executed.
pause <milliseconds>: Waits for user specified number of milliseconds and then executes the
next command if it is provided in the same command line following the number. For example,
the “pause 5000 history” command would wait for five seconds and then execute the history
command. Input any integer number as the number of milliseconds to pause.
repeat <count>: This commands repeats execution user specified number of times of a com-
mand specified before it. For example, the “GPSSTRENGTH repeat 5” executes
GPSSTRENGTH five times.
# : (pound sign followed by a space) Creates a comment from the space to the end-of-line
character. This is useful for adding a comment to a command being recorded in a logfile. For
example, “GPSSTRENGTH pause 1000 repeat 1000 # monitor GPS sats <enter>”. Also,
the command could be used to simply have the system ignore the remaining part of a long
string of commands. For example, “ipv4address 192.168.2.2 ipv4mask 255.255.255.0 #
gateway 192.168.2.1 <enter>” will set the IP address and subnet mask but not the gateway.
?: (question mark) Displays commands available at the current tree level.
Command Examples
Below are a few select examples of commands.
DEFAULTS example

figuration. Enter "Y" to confirm. For example:
1 ? DEFAULTS
