Screen Types

There are three types of async terminal screens:

Selection screens

Input screens
Display screens
Some functions operate the same throughout the
async terminal interface. These functions are the
following:
To return to the top-level menu from any selection
screen or from anywhere within the menu
hierarchy, enter T (or Ctrl-T). This is the same as
pressing the key from the front panel. The t
can be upper or lowercase.
To return to the previous menu, enter U (or
Ctrl-U). This is the same as pressing the
from the front panel. The u can be upper or
lowercase.
To view Health and Status, enter V (or Ctrl-V).
See Chapter 3 for Health and Status access using
the front panel. The v can be upper or lowercase.
To end the async terminal session, enter Ctrl-x.
This logs off the async terminal and returns to the
Password Access Menu screen.
Selection Screens
Selection screens display the selections available
through the menu tree. After password access, the
Top-Level Menu screen appears on the async terminal as
shown below. The unit's current configuration is
displayed. This example identifies a Control DSU with
Port 1 operating at the port speed of 9.6 kbps.
To select from the menu, enter the number or letter
that corresponds with your desired selection
(e.g., enter 1 to select the Local branch). No carriage
return <CR> is required.
