Then follow these steps:
1.
Set the ANS/ORIG switch
to
ORIG.
2.
Access TELCOM.
3.
Press Find «(llJ) and type the code for the information service
(IS
in
this case).
4.
Press Call
(~)
after the number appears. You will not have
to
lift the receiver
when calling a host system
in
this way.
The Model
100 will "echo" a ringing tone or a busy signal (in which case you have
to
redial the number).
After dialing, the Model
100 produces a high-pitched tone
to
indicate that it has
entered the Terminal Mode and the display changes
to
reveal the new roles for the
Function Keys.
For a detailed discussion
of
the role of the Function Keys
in
the Terminal Mode,
consult your owner's manual.
The Log-On Sequence
Once
in
the Terminal Mode (whether you entered automatically or manually), you
must comply with the log-on sequence
to
gain access
to
the
services offered by the
information service.
Most information services will provide you with a User ID and a Password
to
serve
as
confirmation that you are authorized to access a host system.
Detailed instructions for complying with the log-on procedure should be described in
your user's guide.
Experiment
#2
Automatic Log-On
The Model 100 gives you the option to combine the Entry and Terminal Modes
to
dial
and log-on
to
an
information service automatically. This
is
a practical, time-saving
feature, especially if you make regular use of an information service.
In this experiment
we
will create an automatic log-on sequence for the hypothetical
information service from the previous experiment. This automatic log-on sequence will
serve
as
a model for creating other log-on sequences for real host systems.
Let's assume that
IS
(Information Service) from the previous experiment specializes
in
providing information
of
particular interest
to
Model 100 owners.
Let's assume that the log-on sequence for gaining access
to
this system consists
of:
1.
Sending two carriage returns.
2.
Answering the prompt User ID.
3. Answering the prompt Password.
in
that order. Your User ID. for this example
is
9768,453
and
your Password,
"Two-tone." Also, let's assume that after answering these prompts.
IS
asks you to
