Using ATI Screens

There are three types of ATI screens.

Menu screens list selections available through the
menu system.

Input screens allow you to edit or change
information on a screen using screen function keys
(Table G-1) or keyboard keys (Table G-2).

Display screens show the results from a data
collection operation or they display device-specific
information.

The ATI supports character matching for entering

values in fields. For example, if the values for a field can
be DTE, NET, or PORT and you enter a ‘D’ and press
Return (Enter), then the field automatically populates with
the value DTE.

Once an operation is initiated, status messages appear

in the last row of the screen. These include Please Wait
(when a command takes longer than five seconds) and
Command Complete.
