6.3.1 SYSTEM CONSOLE USER HELP - HELP
Syntax: help |? [command]
The available commands on the DT-6X60 system console, along with a short narrative, is available
via the help or “?” command. Command-specific help is available as well. For example, help "L"
shows help for all commands that begin with "L" or help "login" shows help for this specific
command.
6.3.2 LOGIN
Syntax: login PASSWD=<password>
The login command is used to allow access to the other commands.
The PASSWD parameter is not echo suppressed. However, if the PASSWD parameter is not
provided in the command line, the console prompts for a password; the response is echo-
suppressed in this case.
If the password is valid, the user is placed in the logged in mode. Once the console user is logged
in, the balance of the commands are accessible. The login command is not accessible if the user
is already logged in.
6.3.3 LOGOUT
Syntax: logout
The logout command is only allowed if the console user is logged in. It uses no arguments. It will
set the console to the logged out mode. The console may also be logged out by typing exit or
ctrl-D.
6.3.4 SYSTEM LABEL CONFIGURATION - LABEL
Syntax: label [<word> (no spaces) | none]
This command enters a label that subsequently appears as part of the system console prompt and
is used as a key for backup and retrieve directories on the backup server. The word "none" deletes
the label. (See backup/retrieve)
6.3.5 CONFIGURE THE BANNER - BANNER
Syntax: banner [edit]
The banner command is only allowed if the unit is logged in.
Using the banner command, a banner that consists of up to 9 lines can be entered. The banner is
displayed when the login command is executed. When the login command is entered with the
password on the same line as the command, the banner is displayed after the login. If the login
command is used in prompted mode, the banner appears before the password prompt.
When the banner command is executed with no parameters, the entire banner is displayed, and
then the DT-6X60 administrator may re-enter an entirely new banner line-by-line or use the 'DEL'
key to exit without altering the existing banner. The entire banner can also be displayed by typing
vfy banner.

To change one or more lines of text in the banner, the administrator types banner edit. The entire
banner is then displayed with line numbers. The user is prompted for which line to change. When
the user enters a line number, the system displays the corresponding banner line and prompts for
a replacement line. The user must then type in the entire text for that line followed by a newline
