1.NAVIGATING THE TERMINAL MENU

Log in to the ATLAS 550 by connecting one end of the supplied silver cable to the RJ-45 interface labeled CONTROL IN (located on the rear panel of the unit) or CRAFT (located on the front of the unit) and the other to the supplied RJ-45 to DB-9 adapter. Connect the DB-9 (female) to a VT100 terminal or PC with VT100 emulator software. Configure the terminal settings for 9600 data rate, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.

After connecting to the unit and beginning a terminal session, a login screen appears. The default password for the ATLAS 550 is (all lowercase) password. (Refer to DLP-002,Logging in to the System for detailed instructions.)

After logging in, all menu items and data fields are displayed in the terminal menu window (see Figure 1), through which you have complete control of the ATLAS 550.

Menu Path

The first line of the terminal menu window (the menu path) shows the session’s current position (path) in the menu structure. For example, Figure 1 shows the top-level menu with the cursor on the SYSTEM INFO submenu; therefore, the menu path reads ATLAS 550/SYSTEM INFO.

Window Panes

When you first start a terminal menu session, the terminal menu window is divided into left and right panes. The left pane shows the list of available submenus, while the right pane shows the contents of the currently selected submenu.
