8.3.27 REM
The REM command is used to forward a command line from COM1 or
COM2 to the nibble interface. Any responses from the nibble interface, i.e.
command lines beginning with the greater than symbol, are forwarded to
the original command port.

ATTRIBUTE DESCRIPTION
SYNTAX REM [cmd_str]
PARAMETERS cmd_str Command String. Any sequence of characters and spaces.
FLASH NO
EXAMPLES Send the string ‘ABC 123’ to the nibble interface. Since the FAA20
doesn’t process the command, no response is provided directly by the
FAA20.
COM1: rem ABC 123
COM1:
Typically, this command is only used for special back-to-back vocoder
testing using a special adapter card. The back-to-back adapter card
enables a master FAA20 to communicate with a slave FAA20. The REM
command issued at the master is forwarded to the slave via the nibble
interface. The slave responds back to the master over the nibble interface.
The master reads the response and forwards it to the command port than
last issued the REM command.
While the scenario described above covers the master/slave FAA20
configuration, the REM command can be used to test the COM3 interface
with other host equipment. Note: Only command strings starting with a
greater than symbol (as the first no blank character) and ending with a
carriage return are forwarded from the nibble interface to the COM1/COM2
port.
