Chapter 5: Using the Command Line Interface
Specifying the Rack Unit Numbering Offset
This command syntax specifies the starting number of rack units on the
asset strips connected to the BCM2 device.
assetStrip <n> rackUnitNumberingOffset <number>
Variables:
• <n> is the number of the FEATURE port where the selected asset
strip is physically connected. For the BCM2 device with only one
FEATURE port, the number is always 1.
• <number> is a starting number for numbering rack units on the
connected asset strip. This value is an integer number.
Specifying the Asset Strip Orientation
This command syntax specifies the orientation of the asset strips
connected to the BCM2 device. Usually you do not need to perform this
command unless your asset strips do NOT come with the tilt sensor,
causing the BCM2 unable to detect the asset strips' orientation.
assetStrip <n> assetStripOrientation <orientation>
Variables:
• <n> is the number of the FEATURE port where the selected asset
strip is physically connected. For the BCM2 device with only one
FEATURE port, the number is always 1.
• <orientation> is one of the options:
topConnector
or
bottomConnector
.
topConnector This option indicates that the asset sensor is
mounted with the RJ-45 connector located on
the top.
bottomConnector This option indicates that the asset sensor is
mounted with the RJ-45 connector located at
the bottom.
