Chapter 10. Remote Configuration

Configure Remote Unit

This option allows configuration of a remote ISU 128. The Front Panel will dis- play a prompt for the remote number to dial. Enter a number and press Enter to continue. A prompt for the remote password is displayed. Enter up to six digits for the password to access the remote unit and press Enter to continue. The Front Panel displays status information about the call. When a connection is established, the Front Panel will display information as if it were the remote unit. If the connection was not successful, the Front Panel displays informa- tion for the local unit connection. Pressing Cancel anytime up to this point cancels the call. Pressing Cancel at the first remote display screen or selecting Hang up line disconnects the call.

Figure 10-2 illustrates the VT 100 terminal screen when Cfg. Rmt. Unit is se- lected from the main menu. Enter the remote number to call and press Enter. When prompted, enter the password and press Enter. If a password has not been set for accessing the remote unit, press Enter. The VT 100 terminal will first display the Status Menu screen as it attempts to connect to the remote unit. Once successfully connected, the terminal will change back to the Con- figuration Menu screen and display remote information as if the remote unit were connected to the VT 100 terminal. Figure 10-3 illustrates the terminal screen when connected to a remote ISU 128. The call may be terminated by se- lecting Hang up line from the Dial menu.
