The Shell Toolwindow is now a tip window directed to the Sun server ttyb port.
Note – Use a Shell Tool,not a Command Tool; some tip commands may not work
properly in a Command Toolwindow.
4. At your UltraSPARC system, enter the Forth Monitor so that the ok prompt is
displayed.
Note – If you do not have a video monitor attached to your UltraSPARCsystem,
connect the UltraSPARCsystem ttya serial port to the Sun server ttyb serial port
and turn on the power to your UltraSPARCsystem. Wait for a few seconds, and
press Stop-a to interrupt the power-on sequence and start the Forth Monitor.Unless
the system is completely inoperable, the Forth Monitor is enabled, and you can
continue with the next step in this procedure.

There will be no echoed response.
6. Press Return on the Sun server keyboard.
The ok prompt shows in the tip window.
Note – Do not type Stop-a from a Sun server being used as a tip window to your
UltraSPARCsystem. Doing so will abort the operating system on the server. (If you
accidentally type Stop-a, you can recover by immediately typing go at the ok
prompt.) Typing~# in the tip window is equivalent to pressing Stop-a at the
UltraSPARCsystem.
7. When you are finished using the tip window, end your tip session and exit the
window.
