To access the terminal menus and management features of the ATLAS 550, connect the unit to a VT100 
terminal (or VT100 terminal emulator) via the 

 interface on the front panel or the 

 interface 

on the back panel. Configure the terminal settings for 9600 data rate, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and 
no flow control.

After connecting to the unit and beginning a terminal session, a login screen appears. The default password 
for the ATLAS 550 is (all lowercase) password. (Refer to DLP-2, Logging in to the ATLAS 550 for 
detailed instructions.)

After logging in, all menu items and data fields are displayed in the terminal menu window (see Figure 1), 
through which you have complete control of the ATLAS 550.

The first line of the terminal menu window (the menu path) shows the session’s current position (path) in 
the menu structure. For example, Figure 1 shows the top-level menu with the cursor on the 

 

submenu; therefore, the menu path reads 

.

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.
