SEND AO (Abort Output) aborts the output of the last remote command you entered, while the command continues to execute. If you issue another SEND AO, the output resumes if the command is still executing. Use this command when the following conditions exist: o The remote host does not recognize Ctrl/O as the flush output character. o You want to terminate the output but not the execution of the process.
