Figure 8.10 DATE Command
If you use IRIG-B, the day of the year determined from IRIG-B overrides the
date settings.
DCF
The DCF command (Access Level 1) enables or disables virtual terminal
(VT) data collection. This feature allows you to perform data collection
through the SEL-2701 Ethernet Processor in a similar manner that you would
through an SEL-2032 serial port. Use the DCF ON command to enable VT
data collection and DCF OFF command to disable VT data collection (see
Figure 8.11). The DCF command must be entered via the VT connection from
which you want to collect data. Only one DCF session can be enabled on port
17 or 18.
*>>DCF ON <Enter>
Data collection features enabled
*>>
Figure 8.11 DCF Command
The DCF command also supports a NOECHO parameter. When the
NOECHO parameter is set, the virtual terminal does not echo characters as
long as DCF is enabled.
*>>DCF ON NOECHO <Enter>
Data collection features enabled

DEFRAGMENT
The DEFRAGMENT command (Access Level 2) defragments EEPROM.
The SEL-2032 settings are stored in EEPROM. After multiple settings
changes, the available portion of EEPROM may become fragmented
(available bytes exist as several small blocks as opposed to a single larger
block). The DEFRAGMENT command, as shown in Figure 8.13, may be
necessary in order to allow further settings changes to be successfully saved.
*>>DEFRAGMENT <Enter>
Performing EEPROM defragmentation will suspend most SEL-2032 activities.
Perform EEPROM defragmentation (Y/N)? Y <Enter>
Defragmenting ... complete.

Figure 8.13 DEFRAGMENT Command
Executing the DEFRAGMENT command will momentarily suspend many of
the SEL-2032 database and communications activities while the SEL-2032
concentrates the available EEPROM into a single block. Use the MEM
command to check EEPROM fragmentation.
