3 USING THE RADIOTELEX SYSTEM.

3.1 Introduction

This chapter explains how to operate the Integrated Radiotelex system.

Firstly you should learn how to use the window interface of the Message Terminal or the Message Terminal emulating

Software for your MS-DOS compatible PC.

The illustrations shown in this manual are identical for both Message Terminal and PC applications.

The name ‘Window Interface’ arise from the fact that you communicate with the equipment via screen-windows rather

than the old-fashioned commandline.

The window interface program is located in ROM-code in your Message Terminal, and does not need any Disks

during power up.

Using the software on a PC, simply insert the Disk in the Disk Drive, start up the PC and enter the command:

- 3820

Note:

If you use the command:

- 3820 /D

the PC will operate in DEMO mode. This allow you to demonstrate the use of the system without having a Radiotelex/

DSC modem.

3.2 The Window Interface

Power-on self test

When you turn on the power of the Message Terminal, the unit runs a power-on self test.

During this power-on self test the following boot window will appear on the screen:
