8.1 Properly Disconnect from a Remote Maintenance
Session
When you have finished a Remote Maintenance session, you must
disconnect properly. If you do not properly disconnect from the
host computer, the telephone line the host computer used for the
connection is not released.
8.2 Disconnect from the Host Computer
1. Press - to display the Main Menu.
2. Press to select the
Hangup
option. This ends the
connection and releases the telephone line.
3. Press to return to DOS or make a connection to another
host computer using the

If you do not disconnect correctly, or accidentally
lose your connection, the host immediately
restarts. This safety feature prevents the host from
being left inaccessible. To avoid disconnecting
anyone currently calling the host system, always
disconnect according to these instructions.
