13 Task Usage
The terminal runs a multi-tasking operating system. A list of processes or tasks running in the
terminal is listed in this menu. If any task runs out of space, the terminal will cease to operate
correctly.

that must run frequently
Comms Task - Sends and receives comms messages on behalf of the user. (Verify and Unloads
and Acknowledgments)
Aux Task - Runs any device on the Aux port
NetPoll Task - Sends a poll to Supervisor Net every 10 seconds and also does scrolling of the
display.Triggered by the Tick task
TCP Main Task - Receives messages from the Terminal Server and passes them to the Comms
task
Net Recv Task - Waits for messages from other ports, (i.e. not from the Terminal Service)

14 Hub Status
This menu item was introduced into the Version 6 hardware platform to provide diagnostic
information on the internal hub chip.
Term Packets Rx=00046 Tx=001EF
The number of Receive and Transmit packets between the Terminal (Internal LAN IC) and the Hub
IC
Main Packets Rx=00219 Tx=0004B
The number of Receive and Transmit packets between the Lower (Main) Hub connector and the
Hub IC
Aux Packets Rx=00000 Tx=00000
The number of Receive and Transmit packets between the Upper (Aux) Hub connector and the Hub
IC.
If for instance this port is connected to a printer, then the traffic, in packets, flowing between the
hub and the printer is displayed here.
