Generic X-Terminal

This full-feature workstation is intended to be workstation hardware defined by the user which can run MS-DOS Version 5.0 and either the GrafPoint X-One software product or another manufacturer's X11 R4 server package.

To allow the 6800 NMS Interface to display on the generic X-terminal, the fonts are distributed in ªBDFº format. They must be converted to the ªSNFº format. Each X-server package must have a program to accomplish that conversion in order to complete the installation process. An example for an MS-DOS based machine follows:

1.Insert the floppy disk containing the BDF font files in the disk drive: TYPE: COPY A:\font\*.* C:FONTS

PRESS: Enter

2.When the files are completely copied, TYPE: cd C:FONTS

PRESS: Enter

TYPE: BDFTOSNF

PRESS: Enter

3.The system translates the font files into a format ready for use by the NMS application software. Remove the font file floppy from the disk drive.
