Logging into the Main Menu
Configuration (described in Section II) and management (Section III) operations are
accessed via a menu structure, using the keyboard and video device. Once the FRM
has been configured and is operational, it does not need the keyboard and video
device; however, they are necessary to get the unit up and running.
To protect the FRM from unauthorized access, entry to the menu operations requires
a password.
When running outside the menu operations, a display will be similar to the following
figure, and will show the current status of all ports on the node. (This display is
described in detail on
page 19-2
.)
Figure 2-2 Port Status Display
Node Name
at the upper right dentifies the node under control of the key-
board and screen. This will generally be a directly connected node, in
which case the ID will be the
Node Name
configured in the Node Defaults
file (described in Chapter 4). If an operator takes
Remote Control
of
another node (described on page 18-1),
Node Name
will become the
Remote
Control ID
configured in Node Defaults on the controlled node. Any config-
uration or control operations will affect that node rather than the local one.
If the controlled node has a display screen, the message
Under remote
control. Keyboard blocked by id="n"
will be displayed, where "
n
" is the
Remote Control ID
of the controlling node.
After the operator presses
[F1]
at the screen in Figure 2-2 and enters a
pass word
(see
page 2-9), the Main Menu (
Figure 2-3
) will appear.
