Starting the VT100 Interface
After you make the required connections and set up the communications
program, follow these steps to start the VT100 interface.
NOTE: The VT100 interface allows only one active user at a time. For example, if an
active VT100 session is using Telnet over Ethernet, another session cannot occur
over the serial or Ethernet connections.
1. Start the communications program. If you use a Telnet application, enter a
valid IP address and start the connection.
2. Enter the following command:
vt100
NOTE: If the login fails, you may need to retry the connection several times.
The Login screen appears.

default password is public. The Main menu screen appears.
