2.6 Working With The Startup “Display Menu”
Note: If you’re uncertain how to operate your terminal keyboard to access
alpha characters, function keys and so on, refer to Chapter 3: Keyboards
– Operating Instructions beginning on page 45.
2.6.1 The Display Menu
The start up, “Display Menu” is used to access the Parameters menu, the Tekterm
application and the DOS prompt.
2.6.1.1 Bypassing Tekterm At Terminal Bootup
Normally, the Tekterm application is launched automatically when the terminal is
rebooted. To bypass Tekterm and launch the “Display Menu”:
• As the terminal is rebooting, press the <ESC> key.
If you’re not quick enough with the <ESC> key and Tekterm is launched, press
<ALT> and type x to exit Tekterm and return to the “Display Menu”.
2.6.1.2 Launching And Exiting The Parameters Menu
To launch the “Parameters” menu from the startup “Display” menu:
• Type the letter a.
At this point, you’ll be asked to enter a password – either a supervisory or Teklogix
level password.
To exit the “Parameters” menu and return to the “Display menu”
• Press <F2> – the PREVIOUS key – until the “Display Menu” is visible.
