SET-UP PROCEDURE
The CRT must be set-up correctly in order to receive and transmit data. An operator may enter the set-up mode to
verify proper configuration. However, set-up procedures are performed by Simplex personnel and should not
normally be performed by operators. (See publication FA4-1 l-224 for CRT set-up parameters.)
CRT SCREEN DISPLAYS
A variety of CRT screen displays are used to support system operations. Header information is displayed on the first
three lines of the screen. The first line shows the time on the left, custom banner in the center, and the operator on
the right side of the screen. The second line shows the date on the left and the current access level on the right. The
third line shows the overall system status. Prompt/Message information is shown on all screens. The bottom line
displays prompts, help messages, and error messages. These screens tell you what to do and when to dcl it. CRT
screen displays are shown in Figures 5 through 9.

Main Menu Screen, you can display various system information screens, Items 1 through 6 are the available choices
