User Controls 
The user controls affecting the Front-panel interface are listed.  Compel is the preferred 

command method: 

1.  Allow or disallow local control.  This affects many parameters needed to deliver the 

audio output payload.  Set by Compel or the factory. 

2.  Freeze (or “park”) a front-panel screen.  Press in the < 

È

 > and the <ENT> buttons 

at the same time.  Press any button later to release. 

The Terminal interface is a interactive, text-based control method, somewhat deprecated in 

favor of the web interface.  It may be accessed from the Serial M&C port using a text-based 
terminal.  This can be a legacy VT100, or it can be a PC equipped with a serial port, said PC 
running Procomm or Teraterm (Hyperterminal is not the best choice).  Or it may be accessed 
from a Telnet session, using the User=term and the Password=termterm.*  From the web 
diagnostic page, the “Terminal Command” text box may also be used to send Terminal 
commands, with replies posted to the same web page. 

* To exit out of your terminal session, enter the terminal command exit. 

A listing of the available user-accessible Terminal commands is given in Appendix 1.  

However, it is fairly easy to access information about Terminal commands using the ‘apropos 
searchword’ command, where searchword is a keyword clue with no whitespace.  An example 
would be using ‘wan’ if you are trying to get WAN port setup commands. 

 The user controls affecting the Terminal interface are listed: 

1.  Assign Terminal to the Serial M&C port. 
2.  Terminal baud rate. 
3.  Allow or disallow local control.  This affects many parameters needed to deliver the 

audio output payload.  Set by Compel or the factory.
