The Remote Assistant installation program copies the application to the remote
console's hard disk and then runs the Terminal Plus Setup program. You are
prompted for information regarding the communications port to which your
modem is connected and must specify a modem type and modem speed. (See
Appendix B for a list of recommended modems.)

The following figure illustrates Terminal Plus as it appears in a Windows Program
Manager window.

Refer to the online documentation for help regarding the HP Remote Assistant version
of Terminal Plus.

Windows NT Graphics Console Redirection

If you are connected to a Windows NT 3.51 server from a Windows NT 3.51 or
Windows 95 remote console, you can have the information that is displayed on the
server redirected to your remote console by using this option. You can then take
control of the server from your remote console.

Installing Console Redirection Software (pcANYWHERE32)

With HP Terminal Plus you can establish a simple, character-based terminal
connection from a console workstation to the HP Remote Assistant installed in your
server. However, if you also want to do NT graphics console redirection, you need to
install the pcANYWHERE32 software (included with this product).

pcANYWHERE32 allows full console redirection of Windows NT servers from your
Windows NT or Windows 95 remote console. To install pcANYWHERE32:
