How to use the on-board software
Pipeline User’s Guide Preliminary January 30, 1998 xxi
How to use the on-board software
This manual describes how to change the settings in the on-board software to
add, change, or remove functions on the Pipeline. You can access the on-board
software in these ways:
• By Telneting to the unit using the IP address to make the connection.
• By first establishing a serial connection from the terminal port on the back of
the Pipeline to a COM port on your computer, and then by using VT100
terminal emulation software to access the on-board software.
The on-board software looks similar to this:
The Main Edit Menu (the window at the far left) is where you add, change, or
remove settings. The other windows (in the middle and far right columns) are the
status windows. Some status windows contain lists of information. Use the tab
key to move from window to window, and use the up and down arrow keys or
Ctrl-N (next) or Ctrl-P (previous) to scroll through the lists and menus. To open a
menu, place the cursor (>) next to the menu name and press Enter.
