Port Interface Command
NOTE: On ESP-2 MI hubs, the serial port interface and termination are set in hardware. See Changing the Serial
Port Interface on ESP-2 MI Hubs on page 75 for more information. However, if an ESP-2 MI hub is configured
with the RS-422 or RS-485 interface, you may change the transfer mode with this command.

with the RS-422 or RS-485 interface, you may change the transfer mode with this command.
The Port Interface command specifies the physical interface for one or all ports. If the RS-422 or
RS-485 interface is specified, you may enable or disable termination by including Termination
Enable or Disable. Omitting the Termination keyword leaves the setting as is. See Physical
Interfaces on page 6 for more information. The Transfer keyword and values are valid only for
ESP-2 MI hubs.
