NOT E: <ESC> <ESC> or <CTRL>+C will cancel an operation and return to the administrator
prompt. Pressing <CTRL>+R at the LCI3200> or sys admin> prompt will discard the
characters on the current command line, and retype the last command used; <ENTER> must still
be pressed to execute the command. Pressing <CTRL>+U at either prompt erases the current
command line back to the prompt.
6.1 Power-up Sequence and
Basic Use of the Administrator Functions
NOTE: When the system is first turned on, it may take as long as 90 seconds before the front
panel display will show any activity, and before the system will 'wake up'. Total boot-up time is
generally about 3 minutes.
When the SCS3230 is first installed and powered up, it must be configured through the serial
terminal port. Connect the terminal port to a terminal device or computer using a terminal
emulation program. After the network interface has been configured, the administration login
may also be reached via telnet. All the functions available from a local serial connection (with
the exception of
BACKUP and RESTORE) are also available through telnet by connecting to port
5000 of a ConsoleServer’s network IP address.
The serial terminal will display the following text at power-up:

LCI3200>>
The power-on self-test may be skipped by pressing <ESC> <ESC> or <CTRL>+C, but
the SCS3230 should be allowed to complete the POST if possible (this check usually
takes about three minutes). This information is not available on a network connection,
as it is not possible to connect to the ConsoleServer via telnet until the power-on self-
test is complete. At the completion of the power-up sequence, the administrator is
logged out, as indicated by the
LCI3200>> prompt. Some commands may be used
from this prompt, but most are available only when logged in.
NOTE: The administrator may define the system prompt using the PROMPT command (see
section 6.11), but the system default prompt ( LCI3200>>) is used in this guide for clarity.
