Installing Your TBT Mounting the TBT The TBT should be placed vertically on a flat surface. The TBT has no internal fan, and relies on natural airflow for cooling. When you mount the TBT, make sure to keep as many ventilation holes, as possible, unobstructed .
Please follow the procedure below: 1. Connect the monitor to the Video connector. 2. Connect the PS/2 keyboard to the Keyboard connector. 3. Connect the PS/2 mouse to the Mouse connector (if you are using a mouse). 4. Connect a CAT5 UTP cable to the LAN connector (if you are using a LAN).
Troubleshooting Your TBT The following table provides some solutions to comm on problems that can occur during setting up or using your Text Based Terminal (TBT). Problems Solution 1 The monitor screen is blank • Make sure the TBT is turned on. • Make sure the monitor is plugged into an AC outlet and turned on.
5 The network connection does not work • Check the network connection. • Verify the TBT IP address is correct in the Network properties sheet of Terminal Properties. • Check the server's IP address. • If you are using the TBT default setting of DHCP address assignment, make sure there is a workable DHCP server on your network.
Navigating Without a Mouse Many people who work with terminals and terminal em ulation are not familiar with m ouse techniques and do not wish to learn them. The TBT can be set up and operated with or without a mouse, and most param eters can be configured without a mouse .
• In general, the Tab key is used to navigate among setup variables and action buttons. If you look closely, you can see that the current item in focus is marked by a faint dotted rectangle, a highlighted dropdown list, an input field with a blinking cursor, or a bold box outline.
• When a setup variable is in focus, the UpArrow , Dow nArrow, LeftArrow, and RightArrow keys are used to move among radio buttons or to show values in drop-down lists. If it is a drop- down list, you will see the current selection highlighted, as shown below.
• When an input field is in focus, you will also see the blinking cursor in the field, as shown in the following screen where the IP Address input field is in focus. Input Field in Focus This screen also shows a way to shortcut your navigation. Note that each of the field names and action button names has one unique letter that is underlined.
• When the focus is on a button, such as OK, Enter, Cancel, Next , Configure , etc., pressing the PC Enter key or the Space bar will cause the action to occur. Button in Focus Here, the Test button is in focus. If you press either the Space bar or the PC Enter key, a video test will be initiated.
