LOCAL and COMM Keys

Options are:

• Disable

• On All Sessions

• With Supervisor Authority

The LOCAL and COMM keys can be available to everyone, or limited to users with Supervisor
Authority, or no one. Supervisor authority is granted in the Device Profiles/Display panel.

Disconnect/Local Mode Operations

This field determines how operators will disconnect the X.25 connection or enter Local mode.

TWICE is the default value. It requires that the Disconnect or Local key be pressed twice, if
the PU is active, before the link disconnects or enters Local mode. This pause protects against
inadvertently disconnecting all users since one operator’s action affects all operators using
the X.25 link. If the PU is not active, the Disconnect or Local mode operation takes effect
after the operator presses the key the first time.

ONCE activates the Disconnect or Local mode operation when an operator presses the key a
single time, and it takes effect regardless of whether the PU is busy or not.

Toggle between:

• Pressing Key Twice Initiates Disconnect or Local

• Pressing Key Once Initiates Disconnect or Local

Dial Screen Display

Your entry here will determine whether your dial screen will show all fields (default) or will
only show the Host DTE address field. Showing all of the fields allows the changing of some
call options on a call-by-call basis.

Options are:

• Display Host DTE Address Field Only

• Display All Fields

Restrict Connection to Active LUs

When enabled, only LUs which have been activated by the host. (i.e. ACTLU has been received
from the host for the LU), will be given out in response to a request for a session on a Host
Circuit that is using this Host Profile. If no available LUs have been activated, the connection
will fail.

Note that when DDDLU (Dynamic Definition of Dependent LUs) is enabled for a host,
connection will always occur to any available LU regardless of whether or not the “Restrict
Connection to Active LUs option is enabled or not. With DDDLU, the LU will be defined to
the host upon connection and the host should activate the LU at that point.
