To use TermDSM, enter the SYSDIAG command at the MPE/iX prompt (:). The Diagnostic User Interface prompt appears:

     DUI>

From this prompt, many diagnostics can be run. Type HELP to see a list. To run TermDSM, enter:

     DUI>RUN TERMDSM

The following is an example of the type of information that will appear on the terminal:

The last line is the TermDSM prompt. Notice that the prompt lists all the possible commands that you can enter. The capital letters listed are the abbreviations for each command. You can stop the looping of a diagnostic function by entering [CTRL]-Y (looping is terminated after the current loop is completed).
