This User Interface Guide is designed for use by network administrators and others who will configure and provision
the system. It contains information about navigating the VT 100 user interface, configuration information, and menu
descriptions.
The Total Access 600R uses a multi-level menu structure that contains both menu items and data fields. All menu items
and data fields display in the terminal menu window (see Figure 1), through which you have complete control of the
Total Access 600R.

structure. For example, Figure 1 shows the top-level menu with the cursor on the SYSTEM
the menu path reads TA 600R/S
When you first start a terminal menu session, the terminal menu window is divided into left and right panes. The left
pane shows the list of available submenus, while the right pane shows the contents of the currently selected submenu.
You can view the terminal windows in two ways: with fields and submenus displaying horizontally across the right
pane, or with fields and submenus displaying vertically down the right pane. Viewing submenus vertically rather than
horizontally allows you to see information at a glance rather than scrolling horizontally across the window. To change
the view, move your cursor to an index number and press <Enter>. Figure 2 shows this alternate view. Fields and submenu names may vary slightly in this view.
Use the following chart to assist you in moving between and within the two window panes.

Refresh the screen
To save time, only the portion of the screen that has changed is refreshed. This option should
only be necessary if the display picks up incorrect characters.
This setting restores the factory defaults based on the location of the cursor. If the cursor is
on a module line (in the M
ODULES
menu), then only the selected module is updated to fac-
tory defaults.
Copy selected items to the clipboard.
The amount of information you can copy depends on the cursor location when you press
<C>:
If the cursor is over an editable field, only that item is copied.
If the cursor is over the index number of a list, then all of the items in the row of the list are
copied. For example, if the cursor is over the DS0 field in the M
1 screen, all of the in-
AP
formation associated with the DS0 is copied.
Paste the item stored in the clipboard, if the information is compatible.
You must confirm all pastes - except those to a single editable field.
Increment the value of certain types of fields by one when you paste information into those
fields.
Decrement the value of certain types of fields by one when you paste information into those
fields.

you press <CTRL+A>, a pop-up help screen displays with information about the item.
Press <CTRL+Z> to activate a help screen that displays the available keystrokes you can use to navigate the terminal
menu.
The terminal menu is the access point to all other operations. Each terminal menu item has several functions and submenus that identify and provide access to specific operations and parameters. Use the chart below to help select the
appropriate terminal menu.
