Interface
Start-Up
Once a compatible terminal is properly connected to the unit, a terminal interface
session is started by sending a break command or pressing Enter four times to the
unit. If the NMS port is used, the unit then responds with the prompt Enter Unit
Address. To activate the first (or only) unit, simply press Enter. To select a specific
unit, enter the address number of the desired unit and press Enter.
The Enter Unit Address prompt times out after 10 seconds. If this happens, send
another break. To select another unit, exit the current Terminal Interface session,
send a break, and repeat the process. If an invalid address is entered, that address
is echoed back to the terminal. Send another break to start a new session.
The Main Menu screen (Figure 4-2) is then displayed if no password has been
specified. The Utilities menu (page 74) explains setting the password. In the
Password screen (page 46), the correct password must be entered to obtain access
to any other menu.
The password is case- sensitive.
