Communications Program Examples
B.2 Introduction
In all of these examples, first follow the EVB startup procedure in
3.2 Startup
.
When the startup procedure calls for setting up the host computer’s
communications program for terminal emulation, follow the steps in the
examples.
Keyboard entries are illustrated in this appendix using these conventions:
ENTER
Press the keyboard’s
ENTER
,
CARRIAGE RETURN

or
RETURN
key.

<
filename>
Supply the appropriate filename when required.
The stepwise procedures in this appendix are as accurate as possible. However,
it is not feasible to document all of the communications programs that are
available or to guarantee that a newer revision of a program behaves in exactly
the same way as the version used to develop the procedure. For this reason, the
steps are as generic as possible in their descriptions. They can thus serve as
guidelines for programs not exemplified in this manual. Always consult the
documentation for the program being used.
