User Interface Access

You can communicate with the Hotwire Model 7986 Standalone Termination Unit with an asynchronous terminal interface (ATI) using one of the following methods:

HDirect connection through the COM port.

HTelnet session through the Embedded Operations Channel (EOC).

NOTE:

Only one terminal interface session can be active at a time, and another user's session cannot be forced to end. To automatically log out a user due to inactivity, enable the Inactivity Timeout option (see Table A-5,Telnet Sessions Options, in Appendix A, Configuration Option Tables).

Security can limit ATI access several ways. To limit user access or set up login

IDs, refer to Chapter 7, Security.

Ensure that the device you connect communicates using these settings:

HData rate set to 9.6 kbps.

HCharacter length set to 8.
