    where node-name is the name of the serviced system. Any keystrokes entered are forwarded to the VAXconsole MicroVAX II system.

  2. Press Enter to confirm that the communication path between the Console Manager host system and the VAXconsole MicroVAX II has been established successfully. The PS-HW-0> prompt is displayed.
  3. Enter the following command to share the same OPA0 device with the VAXconsole local terminal:
    PS-HW-0>  SET TERMINAL OPA0
    
  4. Enter the following command to enter the VAXconsole remote port into program I/O mode:
    PS-HW-0>  SET TERMINAL PROGRAM
    
  5. Press CTRL_G to Enter to the Console Manager host system.
