A target port that receives a command issued with POKE will only execute the command if TANDEM is enabled on that port.
Caution
POKE should be used with care. Always check that the target port is ready to receive the command you are sending. If the port is not awaiting user input, the results cannot be predicted.
The POKE command is initially only available in the SYSMAN and SYSPROG accounts. It can be copied to other accounts if required.
