Local/Remote

Screen Indicator

Identifies the visible screen as displaying the local, remote, or proxy interface. The
unit automatically determines the necessary interface when connected to the
far-end unit.

The local interface allows configuring the local Verilink unit. The remote interface
allows configuring Verilink units at a remote site. The proxy interface allows
configuring Verilink units that do not support the remote screen interface.

Cursor
Controls

The terminal interface uses a highlighted cursor to make selections from menus
and select fields within screens to be operated on. The cursor is moved in different
ways, depending on the terminal emulation program used. Most programs allow
use of the Tab and Shift+Tab keys. Others allow use of the arrow keys. Once a
field is highlighted, it is manipulated as described in section Field Types.

For keyboards without these standard keys or only some of them, an alternate set
of cursor control commands is provided. Each command is performed by pressing
