(info) All the values in the following tables are case insensitive.

alias

Parameteralias
TypeIdentifier
Value

This parameter is used to set an useful name for COM1 or COM2 ports.  It can be any name, for example "Console1", but usually it is "OPA0" for COM1 and "TTA0" for COM2.

This name is logged in CHARON log file, it can also be used for parametrization in CHARON configuration file along with "COM1" and "COM2" identifiers.

The main purpose of this parameter is migration from old CHARON systems (which do not have the described implementation of consoles) to the current design, since it allows retaining the original name used for parametrization, since the rest of the parameters stay the same in both implementations. 

Note
titleThis note applies to builds before 204-13

If the "alias" parameter is not specified CHARON log file will miss the name for the given console, for example " : Connected. Remote 127.0.0.1:63516" will be displayed instead of "OPA0 : Connected. Remote 127.0.0.1:63516". So it is always recommended to specify the "alias" parameter.

Example:

set COM2 alias=TTA0
