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.
