Menu and Screen Formats

The Hotwire DSLAM has an ASCII-based menu- and screen-driven user interface
system that enables the user to configure and monitor the Hotwire cards. This
section describes the components of a typical Hotwire menu and screen.
A typical Hotwire menu format is shown below:
1. Menu Title is the top line of the menu window that displays the title of the
menu or submenu.
2. Menu List is the portion of the menu window that displays the list o f menu
options. When selected (by using the up and down arrow keys to move the
cursor position), a menu option displays a submenu window.
3. Letter Navigation Keys are provided within a menu list. These keys provide
an alternative method for selecting menu items.
For example, from the Hotwire – DSL menu illustrated above, you can press
the A key to select the Configuration menu item. The Configuration menu
appears. You can then press the A key to select the Card Status menu item,
and subsequently the Card Info menu item.
Some menu items not active for this product are displayed as placeholders in
the menu lists so that letter navigation keys are the same for all related
products.
