Terminal Operation 4-13 PRISM 4001
Utilities Screen
The Utilities screen (Figure 4-17) handles the functions
described in the following paragraphs, including saving a
custom configuration.
Element ID
Allows the entry of an ASCII string of up to 29 characters
which identifies the 4001 to the device receiving the alarm
notification messages. Call On Alarm (COA) messages are
reported in the following format in the [DIAL] or
[DIRECT] modes:
Element ID <CR> <LF>
NET Alarms: net-alarms <CR> <LF>
DTE Alarms: DTE-alarms <CR> <LF>
where net-alarms is a string consisting of some or all of the
identifiers LOS, OOS, OOF, the word NONE, and DTE
alarms is either DTR or NONE. The following is an example:
Joesunit
NET Alarms: LOS
DTE Alarms: NONE
The user-programmable ELEMENT ID string is transmitted
first to allow the COA function to send a message with a
specific meaning to some host (such as a log-on message).
New Password
Allows entry of a password of up to ten characters. An
empty string (ENTER only) may be entered to disable the
password feature. After ENTER is pressed, the new pass-
word is activated and is no longer visible. Passwords are
case sensitive. Therefore, type carefully when entering a
new password. When the terminal interface is exited and
later reactivated, this password must be entered exactly to
gain access. If the wrong password is entered, the following
message appears:
Incorrect Password; Please Enter Again.
Do not exit the terminal interface program until
the password procedure is understood. If a pass-
word has been specified, it must be typed exactly
to reenter the program. Save the configuration to
retain the password.
If the password is forgotten, contact TxPORT Product Sup-
port for a one-time use backdoor password. Prior written
approval must be sent to TxPORT before the backdoor pass-
word can be issued.
Store Parameters to EEPROM
The current configuration may be saved to the Erasable
Electronic Programmable Read Only Memory chip. Press-
ing ENTER brings up a confirmation screen which asks
whether or not to proceed with the reprogramming.
If YES is selected, DDS data is briefly interrupted.
Maintenance Reset
Clears all user-selectable parameters, performance registers,
and alarms. All parameters reset to factory defaults. Press-
ing ENTER brings up a confirmation screen. If confirmation
is given, the 4001 clears all user-selectable parameters and
restart.
If YES is selected, DDS data is interrupted and
the 4001 may need to be reconfigured before
restoring service.
