To initiate an interactive session Turn the terminal on. Dial the HP 3000 computer system (if the terminal is connected over switched telephone lines). Press the RETURN key (or equivalent) to produce a prompt character (:). Enter the MPE/3000 :HELLO command.
The :HELLO command has the form
:HELLO [sessionname,]username[/userpass].acctname[/acctpass]
[,groupname[/grouppass] ]
[;TERM=termtype]
[;TIME=cpusecs]
{BS
[;PRI=CS
DS
ES},]
;INPRI=inputpriority
[ ]
;HIPRI

 |  |  |  |  | NOTE: Throughout this manual, optional
parameters are shown
enclosed in brackets [ ].
Required parameters are shown
enclosed in braces { }. |  |  |  |  |
where - sessionname
is an arbitrary name used in conjunction with username parameters to form a session identity. The para-
meter contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters, beginning with a letter. Default: no session name is
assigned. - username
is the user's name, established by the Account Manager, which allows you to log on under this account.
The parameter contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters, beginning with a letter. (REQUIRED PARA- METER) - userpass
is the user's password, optionally assigned by the Account Manager. It contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric
characters, beginning with a letter. - acctname
is the name of the account, as established by the Account Manager. It contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric
characters, beginning with a letter. The acctname parameter must be preceded by a period. (REQUIRED
PARAMETER) - acctpass
is the account password, optionally assigned by the System Manager. It contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric
characters, beginning with a letter. - groupname
is the name of the group to be used for the local file domain and CPU time charges. The parameter groupname
is established by the Account Manager and contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric characters, beginning
with a letter. Default: the home group if one is assigned by the Account Manager. (Optional if the user has
a home group required if a home group is not assigned.) - grouppass
is the group password, optionally assigned by the Account Manager. It contains from 1 to 8 alphanumeric
characters, beginning with a letter. (Required if assigned and the user is logging on under other than the
home group, not required if the user is logging on under the home group.) - termtype
is the type of terminal used for input. MPE uses this parameter to determine device-dependent characteristics such as delay factors for carriage returns. This parameter must be a number from 0 to 16; the number
meanings are shown below:
0 = HP 2749B ASR 33 EIA-compatible Terminal (10 characters per second (cps)). 1 = ASR 37 Teleprinter Terminal with Paper Tape Reader/Punch (10 cps). 2 = ASR 35 EIA-compatible Terminal (10 cps). 3 = Execuport 300 Data Communications Transceiver Terminal (10, 15, 30 cps). 4 = HP 2600A or DATAPOINT 3300 Keyboard Display Terminal (10-240 cps). 5 = Memorex 1240 Communication Terminal (10,15, 30, 60 cps). Note: must have
even parity-checking option. 6 = HP 2762A/B (GE Terminet 300 or 1200) or Data Communications Terminal Model
B (10,15, 30,120 cps) with Paper Tape Reader/Punch, Option 2. Note: This
terminal must be equipped for ECHO PLEX. 9 = HP 2615A Terminal (Beehive MiniBee) (10-240 cps). 10 = HP 264OA/B, HP 2641A, HP 2644A or HP 2645A Interactive Display Terminal
(character mode or full program control of block mode transmission) (10-240 cps). 11 = HP 264OA/B, HP 2641A, HP 2644A or HP 2645A Interactive Display Terminal
(block mode without program control) (10-240 cps). 12 = HP 2645K Katakana/Roman Data Terminal. 13 = Message switching network or other computer. 14 = Multipoint Terminal. 15 = HP 2635A Printing Terminal. 8-bit protocol (for second character set). 16 = HP 2635A Printing Terminal. 7-bit protocol (standard character set).
If the termtype parameter is omitted, a default is assigned according to the termtype configured for that
input-output port. Default: For hardwired terminals, the default is determined by the System Supervisor
during system configuration. There is no default for terminals that are not hardwired, (Required parameter
to insure correct listings if the terminal is not hardwired or if the terminal is not the default termtype.) - cpusecs
is the maximum CPU time that a session can use, entered in seconds; it must be a value from 1 to 32767.
When the limit is reached, the session is aborted. To specify no limit, enter a question mark (?) or omit the
parameter. Default: no limit. - BS,CS,DS,ES
is the execution priority class. BS is the highest priority, ES is the lowest. If a priority is specified that
exceeds the highest permitted by the system for the account or user name, MPE assigns the highest priority possible below BS. Default: CS.  |  |  |  |  | NOTE: DS and ES are used primarily for batch jobs; their use for sessions
is discouraged. |  |  |  |  |
- inputpriority
is the relative input priority used in checking against access restrictions imposed by the jobfence, if one
exists; it takes effect at log-on time. This parameter must be a value from 1 (lowest priority) to 13 (highest
priority). If a value is specified that is less than or equal to the current jobfence set by the Console Operator,
the session is denied access. Default: 8. - HIPRI
is the request for maximum session-selection input priority, causing the session to be scheduled regardless
of current jobfence or execution limit for sessions. This parameter can be specified only by users with
System Manager or System Supervisor Capability. Default: the current jobfence and execution limit.
For a more detailed description of the :HELLO command, see the MPE Commands Reference Manual. An example of the :HELLO command, using only the (required) parameters username.acctname, is as follows:
:HELLO MANAGER.SCR
HP3000 / MPE III B.01.02. TUE, JUN 3, 1980, 1:49 PM
(Displayed on the terminal by MPE/3000)

Note that the acctname parameter is preceded by a period. This is the required form for this parameter (see the
form example).
