Terminal Menu Operation and Structure
TERMINAL MENU STRUCTURE
The Express XL/XLT uses a multilevel menu structure containing both menu
items and data fields. All menu operations and data display in the terminal
menu window. The Express XL/XLT is shipped in the Factory Default config-
uration. Connect any VT 100 or VT 220 type terminal emulator to the mainte-
nance port. The default rate is 9600 baud 8-N-1. The terminal emulator can
flow the Express XL/XLT off using software flow control. Hardware flow con-
trol is not used.
The opening menu (the Main menu, or top-level menu) is the access point to
all other operations. Each Main menu item has several functions and sub-
menus to identify and access specific parameters. Figure 3-1 on page 28 shows
the top-level terminal menu.
In order to edit items in the terminal menus, you must have the appropriate security
level. Each menu description in this section indicates the required security level re-
quired for write access. The maintenance port is always at security level 0, giving full
access to all configuration items.
The Main menu contains the following options.
Configuration
The Configuration menu provides options to set up the operational configura-
tion for the Express XL/XLT. See the section Configuration Menu on page 34 for
detailed information on the available options.
Dial
The Dial menu is used to connect to different sites based on the Connection
List. See the section Dial Menu on page 88 for more details.
