To conduct a terminal session, connect a VT100 or compatible test set to the OCU-R via the front panel DB-9 connector, then press the space bar three times to initiate the session. The Main Menu will appear, as illustrated in Figure 9.

The Main Menu provides access to detailed performance and configuration information.

A Terminal Modes Menu is available for configuring the craft interface for a manual terminal update or a real-time terminal update. Figure 10 shows the Terminal Modes Menu.

NOTE

Real-time terminal update is recommended for normal terminal operation unless screens are to be captured or logged to a print file.
