System Startup, Configuration, and Shutdown Reference Manual

Entering Control Mode and Using the Command Interpreter 

Control mode is the mode of operation needed to use the access port
commands.  Activate the AP control mode interface by entering CTRL B at
the system console:

     :CTRL B 
     CM>

To use the access port command interpreter, enter a two-character AP
command at the control mode prompt (CM>), followed by a carriage return:

     CM>RS 

     Execution of this command irrecoverably halts
     all system processing and I/O activity and
     restarts the computer system.
     :

If the AP command parser does not recognize the two characters entered as
a command, the system displays an error message similar to the following:

     Illegal command, type HE for help.
