List -” appears at the bottom of the last page. Press   to move from page 
to page. When you reach the last page (indicated by “- End of List -”) page, 
press   to return to the menu of commands.

When a user’s attempt at access fails (see the fifth message in the example 
above), an access failure status message is generated, indicating the reason for 
the failure. Ta b l e  3 - 2
 lists the codes and status messages and the meaning of 
each failure message. The List Statistics command can also be used to get a 
very brief description for each code (see instructions on page 3-34).
Table 3-2. Access Failure Messages
This table is repeated in Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting,” along with the actions to 
be taken in response to the messages.Code 
NumberStatus Message Meaning
1 No RPSD/Key Detected No RPSD Key was detected on the 
caller’s line.
2 No Response No response was returned from the 
RPSD Key when the RPSD Lock sent 
the challenge.
3 Invalid User ID The RPSD Key user’s ID is not in the 
table of users on the RPSD Lock.
4 Blocked User The RPSD Key user was deliberately 
blocked by the administrator on the 
RPSD Lock.
5 Invalid Response The RPSD Key responded to the RPSD 
Lock’s challenge, but the response 
was incorrect.
6 Outgoing Call An outgoing call is being placed. The 
Lock forces a disconnect in order to 
make an outgoing call.
7 Ring - No Answer The RPSD Lock rang the modem, but 
the modem did not answer the call.
8 Force Disconnect A Force Disconnect command was 
issued to the RPSD Lock.
9 Time Restriction The call was received during a time of 
day when the Lock is restricted from 
taking any calls from that user.

R—Remove User
Syntax and Parameters
r  
Description
The Remove User command removes a user from the user table. This prevents 
that user from accessing the Lock or the attendant RMATS channel. The 10 
permanent Lucent Technologies users cannot be removed. If the user is added 
again, the user must reinitialize the Key with new secret information. The user can 
also be re-entered if the secret key information was retained. In such a case, the 
Key does not need to be reinitialized. See the “Initializing an RPSD Key” in 
Chapter 2 for the procedure.
When a Remove User command is issued, the RPSD Lock requests a y or an n 
as confirmation of the removal. To check the user IDs or to check for permanent 
status, use the List User Table command (see instructions on page 3-34).
Sample Command and Response
Parameter Description
rRemove User command
A unique identifier assigned to each user by the system 
administrator using the Add User command. Use the List 
User Table command to check user IDs (see instructions on 
page 3-34).

SC—Set Communications Parameters
Syntax and Parameters

link speed, character length, and parity on the serial port. The default setting is 
9600 baud, eight-bit, no parity. 
Sample Command and Response
Parameter Description

The options for speed are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 
or 19200 bps (trailing zeros may be omitted, for example, 
you can enter 24 for 2400 bps). If either speed or length_
parity are omitted, the current entry is left unchanged.
The following are the options for length/parity (grouped 
together):
8N = 8 bits no parity
7N = 7 bits no parity
7E = 7 bits even parity
7O = 7 bits odd parity

and Use” for details on the Key List User Information command.
To check the user IDs, use the List User Table command (see instructions on 
page 3-34).
