|---|
Opens a saved console in author mode. Used to make changes to saved consoles. |
/64 |
Opens the 64-bit version of mmc (mmc64). Use this option only if you are running a Microsoft 64-bit operating system and want to use a 64-bit snap-in. |
/32 |
Opens the 32-bit version of mmc (mmc32). When running a Microsoft 64-bit operating system, you can run 32-bit snap-ins by opening mmc with this command-line option when you have 32-bit only snap-ins. |
<path>\<filename>.msc |
Remarks |
You can use environment variables to create command lines or shortcuts that don't depend on the explicit location of console files. For instance, if the path to a console file is in the system folder (for example, mmc c:\winnt\system32\console_name.msc), you can use the expandable data string %systemroot% to specify the location (mmc%systemroot%\system32\console_name.msc). This may be useful if you're delegating tasks to people in your organization who are working on different computers. |
When consoles are opened using the /a option, they're opened in author mode, regardless of their default mode. This doesn't permanently change the default mode setting for files; when you omit this option, mmc opens console files according to their default mode settings. |
After you open mmc or a console file in author mode, you can open any existing console by clicking Open on the Console menu. |
You can use the command line to create shortcuts for opening mmc and saved consoles. A command-line command works with the Run command on the Start menu, in any command-prompt window, in shortcuts, or in any batch file or program that calls the command. |
mode |
Displays system status, changes system settings, or reconfigures ports or devices. If used without parameters, mode displays all the controllable attributes of the console and the available COM devices. |
Serial port |
Configures a serial communications port and sets the output handshake. |

Parameters |
Parameter |
Description |
com<m>[:] |
Specifies the number of the async Prncnfg.vbshronous communications port. |
baud=<b> |
Specifies the transmission rate in bits per second. The valid values include:11 - 110 baud15 - 150 baud30 - 300 baud60 - 600 baud12 - 1200 baud24 - 2400 baud48 - 4800 baud96 - 9600 baud19 - 19,200 baud |
parity=<p> |
Specifies how the system uses the parity bit to check for transmission errors. The valid values include:n - nonee - even (default value)o - oddm - marks - spaceNot all devices support using the m or s parameters. |
data=<d> |
Specifies the number of data bits in a character. Valid values range from 5 through 8. The default value is 7. Not all devices support the values 5 and 6. |
stop=<s> |
Specifies the number of stop bits that define the end of a character: 1, 1.5, or 2. If the baud rate is 110, the default value is 2. Otherwise, the default value is 1. Not all devices support the value 1.5. |
to={on | off} |
Specifies whether the device uses infinite time out processing. The default value is off. Turning this option on means that the device will never stop waiting to receive a response from a host or client computer. |
xon={on | off} |
Specifies whether the system allows the XON/XOFF protocol. This protocol provides flow control for serial communications, enhancing reliability, but reducing performance. |
odsr={on | off} |
Specifies whether the system turns on the Data Set Ready (DSR) output handshake. |
octs={on | off} |
Specifies whether the system turns on the Clear to Send (CTS) output handshake. |
dtr={on | off | hs} |
Specifies whether the system turns on the Data Terminal Ready (DTR) output handshake. Setting this value to on mode, provides a constant signal to show the terminal is ready to send data. Setting this value to hs mode provides a handshake signal between the two terminals. |
rts={on | off | hs | tg} |
Specifies whether the system turns on the Request to Send (RTS) output handshake. Setting this value to on mode, provides a constant signal to show the terminal is ready to send data. Setting this value to hs mode provides a handshake signal between the two terminals. Setting this value to tg mode provides a way to toggle between ready and not ready states. |
idsr={on | off} |
Specifies whether the system turns on the DSR sensitivity. You must turn this option on to use DSR handshaking. |
/? |
Displays help at the command prompt. |
