Getting Started
Logging on means identifying yourself to the computer. You must identify
yourself as an authorized user by typing your logon identity (user name
and account) and a password. If you do not have a logon identity, ask
your system administrator to give you one. If this is the first time you
have logged on to this system you will be asked to select a password.
To Log On
* After switching on the terminal, press Return one or more times
until you see the system prompt.
* Type your logon identity. For example:
MPE XL:HELLO PAT.FINANCE
* Press return.
* Type any required passwords.
As a security precaution, passwords are not displayed on the screen as
you type them.
* Type return.
A system prompt (:) signals the start of your session. A welcome
message may also be displayed.
NOTE If this is your first time to log in, you will be prompted to
choose and enter your new password at this time.
