1. NAVIGATING THE TERMINAL MENU
The TRACER 4208 menu system can be accessed with a VT100 compatible terminal that is connected to
the RS-232 port located on the back of the unit and set to 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and
no parity. Flow control on the serial interface should be configured to
NONE for proper operation. Once a
terminal is connected, press <Ctrl + L> to refresh the current screen. If password access has been enabled,
the
ENTER PASSWORD message displays at the bottom of the TRACER 4208 System Status menu.
Terminal Menu Window
The TRACER 4208 uses a series of menu pages and a single main menu page to access its many features.
The main menu page (see Figure 1) provides a link to all available configuration/status pages.
Figure 1. Main Menu Screen
All TRACER 4208 systems are shipped factory default with password protection disabled.
