Request and Execute Syntax

After you have started Telnet in automation mode, you can begin to configure it using request and execute items. The syntax for these items is described below.

Request Syntax

Use the following command to set a property to a value:

anyrequest=value

where anyrequest is any request item, and value is a setting you can make for that item.

Use the following command to get a request and store the value:

value=anyexecute(parameter list)

where anyexecute is any execute item and parameter list is the appropriate values that the execute item requires. Commas separate multiple parameters.

Execute Syntax

Use the following command to call the Telnet topic request with value as its parameter:

anyexecute=value

where anyexecute is any execute item and value is a setting you can make for that item.
