It is recommended that the Break Sequence be removed on Device Ports configured for raw binary connections. How can I delete the breakseq from the command line?

The default break sequence is Esc-B, i.e. press the Esc key then quickly press shift+B.

To specify a blank breakseq from the command line, use:

[SLC]> set deviceport port all breakseq ""

i.e. use two double quotes with nothing between them.

In some versions of firmware (e.g. v5.4 & v5.5) the 'all' argument does not work. If the command above fails, try:

[SLC]> set deviceport port 1-<n> breakseq ""

where <n> is the number of device ports on your SLC or SLB. This command works in all versions of firmware. It can also be used to change the break sequence on one or just a few ports, e.g.:

[SLC]> set deviceport port 1-4,6,8 breakseq "\x1bB"

changes the break seqence on ports 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 to the default setting of Esc-B.
