Note: Check with the system operator before changing this value.

You can enter the display station’s serial number by highlighting Enter Serial # on the System Manager menu. Press Enter – the first character of the displayed serial number is highlighted and the numbers 0-9and the alphabet are displayed on the screen above the status row line. Next, follow these steps:

1)Move the underline cursor using the Left and Right Arrow keys until the appropriate symbol is displayed in the first character image block in the serial number entry area.

2)Press the Enter key when the underline cursor is located under the character that you want to select. The entry block automatically moves to the next position in the serial number entry area and the underline cursor moves under the displayed character.

3)Repeat Steps 1 and 2 until all digits of the serial number are entered. You can correct the characters you enter when the last character is entered and the cursor wraps to the first character. To clear all entries, press the Clear key.

4)When you finish entering the serial number, press the Reset key. The System Manager menu is displayed.

5)Press the Reset key to return to the initial Offline Test menu.

The serial number, along with the Product ID, is stored in the display’s nonvolatile memory and is available to the control unit for systems statistics gathering by NetView. The control unit must be at the appropriate microcode level to support SNA host requests for Vital Product Data.
