Chapter 3: Operating an ASCII Device with the 

AUATC Terminal Converter 

This section describes how to access and operate an ACSII-based device with a PS/2 or Sun console (keyboard and 
monitor) using the AUATC.  
 

Screen Layout 

The AUATC produces eight color, 800x600-resolution video, which can accommodate 32 lines of 80 text 
characters. A typical ASCII terminal uses 24 lines, so the AUATC uses the 8 extra lines to provide system status and 
help information. These 8 lines are located on the top four and the bottom four lines of the screen (see Figure 4). 

• 

Line 1, top window: AUATC firmware version is displayed to the right 

• 

Line 3, top window: Cursor position and buffer page number is displayed to the left; terminal type and baud rate 
are displayed to the right 

• 

Line 4, top window: Communication status is displayed at the center. Status can be one of the following: 

− 

On Line

: Communicating with computer. The terminal screen area displays the interactions with computer. 

− 

Help

: Press <

Alt-F1

> to display the AUATC Help screen. 

− 

Set Up

: Press <

Alt-F2

> or <

Alt-F3

> to enter set-up mode. 

− 

Buffer Edit

: Press <

Alt-F4

> to enter buffer review/edit mode. 

• 

Line 4, top window: AUATC Access indicator is displayed on the right. It indicates one of the following: 

− 

LOC

: Local port is active, either PS/2 keyboard or Sun keyboard 

− 

RMT

: Remote port (RJ45) is active 

− 

NO

: No port is active. 

• 

The 4 lines in bottom window display command keys specific to the current screen.
