Questions about Seagate Drives and commands

[mrkmpn]

I've just discovered the ability to interface with some drives with a terminal, and have been playing around with commands on a few seagate drives I have lying around at work.

My questions are:
I know what P-List and G-list are, but I was hoping someone could explain what the following are:

T-List
slip defect list
DOS (DOS config tables)
CAP
MC and MCMT

Also when running C>Q, I noticed these "Online" commands at the beginning:

Online CR: Rev 0011.0000, Flash, Abort
Online ESC: Rev 0011.0000, Flash, Abort Looping Command or Batch File
Online ' ': Rev 0001.0000, Flash, Pause Output
Online '.': Rev 0011.0000, Flash, Display Active Status
Online '?': Rev 0011.0000, Flash, Display Diagnostic Buffer Information
Online '`': Rev 0012.0001, Flash, Display Read/Write Statistics
Online '$': Rev 0012.0002, Flash, Display Read/Write Statistics By Zone
etc...

I don't see anyway to switch to "online" like you can with the other levels.
How would these commands be accessed?

[pepe]

those are available in any level in ASCII diag mode or in online mode.

Thank you, is online mode if you are connecting through SATA interface rather than ttl?

[pepe]

Online mode is when Sata intf is active AND it is possible to execute those commands.
Activated by ctrl-R, see the cmd descriptions.

Ah, I saw that, but misunderstood what it meant, and since it was under the 'online' command list didn't try it.

Thank you for the help.
