2.7.1 Cursor Movement
The cursor symbol ">" is moved around the screen to the required field using the arrow
keys.
2.7.2 Parameter changing
If it is possible to modify the field over which the cursor is placed, the message "Use
<SPACEBAR>, <+>, <->" is shown at the bottom of the screen. No message will
appear if the field is calculated, un-modifiable or hardware set.
Pressing the Space bar, the "+" key or the "-" key will cycle through the choices
available for a parameter.
2.7.3 Accepting all changes and Updating the configuration
If "Control" and "U" are pressed at the same time after the configuration has been
suitably adjusted, the configuration is updated at the local and remote end as necessary
and held in Non-Volatile Memory (NVRAM.)
2.7.4 Abandoning Changes
Pressing ESC at any point before a configuration is updated will cause the message
Abandon Changes? (y/n) to appear at the bottom of the screen. If n is selected the
message will disappear and editing may continue. If y is pressed, all modifications will
be abandoned and last updated configuration will be re-painted to the screen.
2.7.5 Local or Remote Configuration.
Most settings are independent at each end of the multiplexer link e.g. Flow Control,
and Rate.
The "Configure" parameter in the upper left of the selected screen shows whether the
LOCAL or REMOTE multiplexer is being configured.
2.7.6 Changing the configuration page
The Configuration Page required, e.g. Channels 1-16, or Modem Setup etc., is
selected by moving the cursor to the upper right area and pressing Enter when
alongside the required page.
