4.2.5 Terminal Interface
The Terminal Interface provides a textual configuration dialog for configuring some of the basic settings.
It is recommended that the web interface be utilized for all configurations made to the CMR-8500. This
method of configuration can be used for initial configuration of the unit; i.e., configuring the network
parameters for the unit but not for normal operation. The Web (HTTP) Interface is recommended for
operational management.
The Terminal Interface allows can only be used while a serial connection is present between the CMR-
8500 and a PC. The screens shown in this section are displayed via a serial connection to a Windows PC.
The screens, menu options, and functionality are the same whether connected via a serial connection or by
a network connection via Telnet.
The user must authenticate (login) before being able to access the application. After a period of inactivity,
the user’s session will time out, and must log in again to resume.
