6.3 (LO) LOCAL MODE
Activate this function from the ‘waiting for call’ screen to log on to the
system in local mode. Activating this function while a user is remotely on
the system will cause the system to enter local mode, disabling his
terminal completely, until you deactivate the function. If you are logged
on in local mode, deactivating this function will cause the system to reset
and return to the ‘waiting for call’ screen without logging your call to
disk -- use ‘O’ or ‘O!’ to log off normally.
6.4 (TR) TIME STILL REMAINING
When this function is activated, you are able to use the left and right
arrow keys to change the number of minutes that the user has remaining on
the system for his current call. The time remaining change will
simultaneously be reflected on the top line of the status window. When
altering the time remaining, you may use the down arrow key to immediately
bring the time remaining to 0 -- usually immediately logging the user off
of the system.
6.5 (CH) CHAT MODE
Activating this function while at any input prompt, will display the
message ‘Chatting with SysOp’, and place the user into ‘chat mode’. In
chat mode, you and the user may freely type to one another until the chat
mode is deactivated, when the message ‘Returning to system’ will be
displayed, and the user will be placed at the command prompt from which he
came. During chat mode, the user’s time remaining will not decrease.
6.6 (NW) NEW USERS
Activating this function will make your system a ‘private’ system. That
is, callers will not be able to log on as NEW to become a user of your
system -- only previously registered users will be able to log on.
6.7 (PR) PRINTER
While this function is active, complete lines of text that are printed to
the screen will also be sent to the printer. The printer must be turned
on, and configured correctly (refer to section 3.3).
6.8 (UD) UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD
While this function is active, all users will be denied access to the file
transfer section of C-NET regardless of which access group they are a
member of.
6.9 (MB) MESSAGE BASES
While this function is active, all users will be denied access to the
message base section of C-NET regardless of which access group they are a
member of.
6.10 (FX) C-NET FAX
Still under construction at the release date of C-NET v7.0.
