LOGGING ON 



Logging on means connecting the terminal to the computer via the modem 

 and telephone, and identifying yourself to the system with your username and 

 password. To log on, follow these steps. 



1. Turn on your terminal and modem (hook up your printer to the terminal 

 if you want hard copies too). Now you are ready to make contact 

 with the computer. 



2. To connect with the CSU Cyber machine, dial (303) 491-7395 (CSU 

 Computer Center, Accounts) to receive the number to dial directly to 

 the computer. You must inform them of the 'baud' rate of your 

 terminal and printer. See the Glossary regarding baud rates, and 

 your terminal's user's manual concerning the baud rate of your 

 hardware. After you have an account, dial the direct computer 

 number. 



3. Wait for a continuous high-pitched tone. 



4. Connect your telephone receiver with your modem making sure the 

 handset is correctly matched up with the modem. A light usually 

 indicates a connection has been made with the computer. 



5. Press a [CR] and you will see something like this 

 ENTER 1 FOR GOLD SYSTEM ENTER FOR GREEN SYSTEM 



6. Type 1 on your keyboard. You should always select the Gold System 

 because that is where LIAM resides. 



The computer responds: 



WELCOME TO THE NOS SOFTWARE SYSTEM.

This is the computer's procedure for asking you to type in your 

 assigned username and password, which the computer calls your family 

 name. Typing it now is the process of logging on. Be certain to 

 type it precisely as it was given to you, complete with commas and 

 no spaces.
