On-line Operations 18-3Remote Control via an Async PAD PortOnce the ANSI terminal is in Command mode (see page A-1), follow this procedureto take remote control of an FRM:1. Enter the Remote Control ID of the node (specified in its Node Defaults file), fol-lowed (with no spaces) by the letter d and the Remote Control Password of thenode (also specified in its Node Defaults file). An example of a correct entry fora Remote Control ID of 1234 and a password of remote is 1234dremote.2. When the remote node accepts your entry, you will be asked: Are you a PAD user?Type y [Enter].3. When prompted, enter the password of the controlled node. The display at thecontrolled node will say: Under remote control. Keyboard blocked by id = "n." TheMain Menu at the controlling node will act as the Main Menu of the controllednode, and the displayed remote ID is the ID of the controlled node.Placing a call through the FRM is described in Appendix A.Rebooting the Remote NodeBefore rebooting, notify all users of this node, since all connec-tions on all ports will be cleared.Press [.] (period) to reboot the node. When asked: Remote reboot the node?, press [Y].Exiting Remote ControlPress [,] (comma) to exit remote control. When asked: Stop remote control?, press [Y].Node Name="NN" (where "NN" is the Node Name configured in Node Defaults) will bedisplayed in the upper right hand corner at the remote node, meaning that the remotenode is now under local control (control at its own screen).If the controlled node detects that the remote control line failed during a remotecontrol session, remote control will be terminated and the remote node's local MainMenu will be displayed on its screen.
