When you log on to the terminal menus, the terminal is actually logged on to
the HLU line unit connected to the HDU-451. All system status information
comes from the HLU, eliminating the need to store redundant information at
each doubler in a HiGain system. Because of this, only one doubler can be
logged on to the HLU at any time. The HDU-451 automatically logs off of
the terminal after five minutes of inactivity (no keyboard input).
If you are using the Microsoft Windows terminal emulation
program, from the Settings, Terminal Preference menu, you
must deselect
Show Scroll Bars and Use Function, Arrow, and
Ctrl Keys for Windows.
