Overview

The purpose of ZMNTR is to present a comprehensive view of the ZCOM runtime system by making available important configuration and state information. The ZMNTR utility also allows interactive control over the ZCOM runtime system. ZMNTR handles:

Display of ZCOM runtime configuration information
Display of ZCOM runtime state and error information
Control of the operational state of devices and links

The following information is provided:

Terminal state
Number of transmitted messages
Number of received messages
Number of errored messages
Error rate as a percentage of correct messages
Message totals by line, or over the whole system
ACC card configuration and state
X.25-specific details

In addition, ZMNTR allows:

Enabling or disabling any terminal or group of terminals
Activating and deactivating terminals - Activate enables inbound (or read) data
Performing loopback tests on specific ports

ZMNTR may be run interactively from a terminal or window, or may be run from a command script. The output it generates is directed to standard out (usually the terminal) or may be sent to a file.

ZMNTR also has an auto-repeat function to allow the terminal display to be updated on a regular basis without keyboard intervention.
