Command Line Verbs
The first c ommand  line element is the verb , whic h sp ec ifies the typ e of ac tion. 
The DEFINITY AUDIX c ommand  line verbs are the following :
Eac h sc reen name c an be p rec ed ed  b y one or more of these verb s (one at a 
time), and  (possibly) followed  b y q ualifiers, to c omp ose a c ommand  that 
ac tivates the sc reen.
Command Line Objects
The sec ond  c ommand  line element is the sc reen name, or ob jec t-phrase. The 
sc reen names c onsist of one or more word s (nouns and  adjec tives) that id entify 
the screen. The screen names are generally (but not always) the same as the title 
of the sc reen as it ap p ears on your sc reen when ac tivated . Examp les of ob jec t 
p hrases are alarms
, measurements
, remote-messages
, and  attendants
.
Command Line Qualifiers
The third  c ommand  line element is the q ualifier. A c ommand  line q ualifier c an b e 
a sub sc rib er extension numb er (
12345), a d ate (7/21/94), a sub sc rib er name, 
and  other sp ec ific  p arameters.
Wherever p ossib le, the key that uniq uely sp ec ifies an ad ministrative rec ord is 
entered  on the c ommand  line rather than in the sc reen. For examp le, you enter 
change subscriber 
12345 on the c ommand  line rather than just change 
subscriber
 followed  b y entry 
12345 in the sc reen.
Most sc reens c an b e ac tivated  by more than one version of a c ommand. The 
d ifferent versions of the sc reen ac tivation c ommand  are d isting uished  b y the 
verb  that beg ins the c ommand  line and  b y the q ualifiers that end  the c ommand  
line. For examp le, the Subsc rib er sc reen c an be ac tivated  b y four versions of the 
c ommand  whic h ap p ear on the following pag e.add copy get release save
