OVERVIEW

eas:

2.

Access the terminal menu using either a VT-100 terminal attached to the
ATLAS 550 Base Unit’s control port or a Telnet session established through
the Base Unit’s Ethernet port. The ATLAS 550 User Manual provides detailed
instructions on each of these management approaches.
All references to the Octal FXO Module in this section are
applicable to the Quad FXO Module, with the differences that the
Quad FXO Module has four ports instead of eight and is displayed
as FXO-4 in the menus.
To edit items in the terminal menu, you must have the appropriate
password level. Each menu description in this section indicates
the password level required for write and read access. See “Access
Passwords” in the ATLAS 550 User Manual for detailed
information on working with passwords. Security level 0 users
can view and edit every available field. Security level 5 users can
view any field but cannot edit.
