key.)

screen, shown in Figure 4-2, appears on the terminal.

Local Management for the IRM3 is now ready for operation.
NOTE
If the modem you are using does not generate a Clear to Send
(CTS) signal, Request to Send (RTS) signal, or a Data Terminal
Ready (DTR) signal, the CTS jumpers on the IRM3 must be set
to compensate for these signals. Refer to Chapter 3 for
information on setting the CTS jumper.
NOTE
If you have entered a Superuser name at the Community
Names screen (refer to Section 4.5), the password will be the
Superuser name. If you have entered more than one
Superuser name, any of those names may be used as the
password.
