To send a break to a connected serial device, concurrently press the control and backslash keys (Ctrl \).
This command is built into our console products to generate a break signal during a network session that is connected to a serial port.
If you are using an Apple product you can try the following break sequence: Enter ~B
Additionally the following modes are supported in our units:
To get to the ACCEPT BREAK Menu you will need to issue a "/n" and select the option for ACCEPT BREAK.
ACCEPT BREAK: [Shared]
1. Off
2. On (ASCII 28)
3. On (Dual mode)
4. On (IETF/RFC4335 compliant)
Help:
- 'Off' all break codes are ignored and passed through untouched to the serial port,
- 'On (ASCII 28)' If an ASCII 28 (Control '\') is detected, it is stripped and a 'break' sequence is initiated on the connected serial port.
- 'On (Dual Mode)' If an ASCII 28 or IETF/RFC4335 SSH break sequence is detected, these codes are stripped and a 'break' sequence is initiated on the connected serial port.
- 'On (IETF/RFC4335 compliant)' If an IETF/RFC4335 SSH break sequence is detected, this code is stripped and a 'break' sequence is initiated on the connected serial port.
- When this mode changes, you need to logout/login to take affect.
