VX 820 DUET REFERENCE GUIDE 21
CHAPTER 3
Terminal Manager
This chapter describes a category of device functions called Terminal Manager
Operations. For more information on Terminal Manager Operations, please refer
to the VX 820 Reference Guide ( VPN DOC282-004-EN-A):
• Press ENTER and 7 keys at the same time and enter the password to open the
Verix Terminal Manager (VTM).
• Since files are loaded into specific groups, VTM users can view files, delete
files, and manage configuration variables.
• Use the system and file group passwords to secure applications and
information on the device.
• Use the Terminal Manager menus and submenus to configure devices;
download and debug applications; perform diagnostics such as changing
console settings, managing keys and view device information; and perform
routine tests and device maintenance.
Verix Terminal Manager is used exclusively by those responsible for configuring,
deploying, and managing on-site VX 820 device installations. Since VX 820 DUET
is used with the VX 820, the Terminal Manager mode for the DUET is dependent
on the VX 820 with a few changes (see Terminal Manager Changes).
Using the
Terminal
Manager
Use the Verix Terminal Manager functions to perform different subsets of related
tasks:
• Application programmers configure a development device, download
development versions of the VX 820 application program, then test and debug
the application until it is validated and ready to be downloaded to other
devices.
• Deployers of VX 820 DUET devices to end-user sites perform the specific
tasks required to deploy a new VX 820 DUET device on-site, including
configuring the device, downloading application software, and testing the
device prior to deployment.
• Device administrators or site managers change passwords, perform
routine tests and device maintenance, and configure devices for remote
diagnostics and downloads by telephone.
To perform the subset of tasks that corresponds to a job, select the appropriate
Terminal Manager menu(s) and execute the corresponding procedure(s).
