INITIATING COMMUNICATION
Once your data terminal is connected directly to the Series 1000, or your phone modems are in
place, you can communicate with your system. To guard against unauthorized access, the system
requires a sign-on password before you can enter commands to change or print reports on the
system.
1.
Turn on the power to your data terminal.
2.
If you are using phone modems, dial and make connection with the site modem. If you are
using a computer, follow the instructions of your interface program.
3.
Press CTRL F, or press RETURN. The system displays: SIGN ON:.
4.
Type the 1- to 10-character password and press RETURN. The password does not display
as you type it. When the correct password is entered, an asterisk (*) prompt appears and
you can enter commands.
If you are signing on for the first time, the password is GASBOY. You must type it in all
capital letters.
To change the password, use the LS (load sign-on password) command.
If you enter the password incorrectly, press RETURN to redisplay the SIGN ON: prompt.
Repeat Step 4.
