GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH YOUR TERMINAL
This section will help you become familiar with some of the features of your
4106,
4107,
or 4109 Computer Display Terminal. You do not need to be connected to a
host computer, and if you
are,
be sure you 're not logged in
.
Here 's what you can expect to learn through these exercises
:
•
Exercise 1 helps you prepare the terminal to receive commands
.
•
Exercise 2 teaches you how to enter commands into the terminal.
•
Exercise 3 demonstrates the terminal 's dialog area and shows you how to get
information from the terminal.
•
Exercise 4 helps you create graphics on the terminal screen.
•
Exercise 5 shows you how to change the colors of the text and graphics on the
screen.
•
Exercise 6 helps you zoom in on and pan across the graphics displayed on the
screen
.
•
Exercise 7 shows you how to work with graphics input devices if your host
program uses graphics input (GIN)
.
Although you can complete the exercises in a single session
,
it's probably easier to
do them in two or more
sittings.
You should do Exercises
1,
2, and 3 in one sitting
;
for Exercises 4 through
7,
just follow the steps at the beginning of each one
,
which
tell you how to prepare the terminal for that particular exercise
.
Some exercises will
take longer than others, but all seven should require less than two hours of your
time
.
