Prompting for Input

The input prompt variable allows you to create a prompt that accepts user input

from the Technician Interface console. The syntax of the input prompt variable is

<prompt_string>

. The Technician Interface prompts the user with the message

you entered between the brackets (< >). In the following script,

setenv ans “$<Enter your name: >”

echo “Your name is $ans”

Enter your name:

appears on the user’s console. After the user enters a value, the

Technician Interface substitutes the value for

ans

and displays the message Your

name is

followed by the name entered by the user.

For instructions on using the

setenv

command and the

echo

command, see

Chapter 2.

Polling the Console for Input

You can specify how much time a user has to respond to a prompt (that is, to press

Return) before the system times out. If you do not specify a timeout value, the

system prompts the user for input until the user responds.

To specify a timeout value, enter the following command, where

<value_in_seconds>

is the length of time, in seconds, that the system will wait for

a response before timing out.

let SYS_IO_TIMEOUT = <value_in_seconds>

The timeout value cannot exceed the timeout specified by one of the following

MIB objects: wfSerialPort.wfSerialPortTimeOut.0 or

wfTelnet.wfTelnetSerialPortTimeOut.0. For example, if you specify a timeout of

600 seconds and the timeout specified by wfSerialPort.wfSerialPortTimeOut.0 = 5

minutes, the system uses the timeout value given by

wfSerialPort.wfSerialPortTimeOut.0.

For instructions on using the

let

command, see Chapter 2.
