INTRODUCTION
CONVENTIONS
Overview
In addition to advanced display, communications, and keyboard
features, this full-function ASCII terminal supports three
ANSI-based operating modes as well as fourteen ASCII modes.
Chapters 1 through 4
present the basic information you'll need
to install and operate the terminal in its native mode. Appendix
E includes a complete list of the commands supported by the
terminal in each ASCII personality. Appendix F includes a
complete list
of the commands supported by the terminal in each
ANSI personality.
For more detailed information on how to take advantage of the
terminal's features in your computer programs, order the WY-60
Programmer's Guide through your sales representative.
The term native personality refers to the terminal's normal
operating mode. The term personality refers to operating modes
characteristic
of one or more other terminals.
Key functions are described in
the text as follows:
• The symbol for the key on the WY-60 ASCII keyboard is
shown first, followed by key symbols in parentheses for the
other keyboards if they are different. For example,
1Setup 1 (I Reset I, 1Sys Reg I, 1Select I)
identifies 1Setup 1 on the WY-60 ASCII keyboard, 1Reset 1 on
the 316X-style keyboard, 1Sys Reg 1 on the AT-style keyboard,
and 1Select 1 on the Enhanced PC-style keyboard.

ii Overview
• When a key symbol in the text refers to one of two names on
a key on the keyboard, the action of other keys may be
implied. For example, I Print I assumes the simultaneous
pressing of IShift I on the WY-60 ASCII keyboard, whereas
ISend I would mean the same key by itself (unshifted).
Similarly, IBreak I assumes the simultaneous pressing of @ill
on the 316X -style keyboard, because the name appears on the
front face of the key.
• When necessary, an italic notation follows the key name to
identify a specific location on the keyboard. For example,
Wkpd identifies the number key on the numeric keypad at
the right side of the keyboard, and ~right identifies the
@J key on the right side of the Enhanced PC-style keyboard.

GETTING READY
CONNECTING THE TERMINAL
Installing the Terminal
You'll need a shielded serial interface cable (fitted with a male
25-pin
connector on the terminal end) to connect the terminal to
your computer or modem. If you plan to connect a serial printer
directly to the terminal, you'll need a second serial cable. (See
Appendix A for connector pin assignments.)
Place
the terminal on a flat, hard surface, allowing three inches
on all sides for ventilation.
To connect the terminal, follow these steps:
1 Press
the front half of the power switch on the right side of
the terminal to be sure that the terminal is turned off.
2 Plug
the keyboard cable into the keyboard socket on the left
side
of the terminal.
3 Thread the serial cable(s) through the cable guide at the back
of the terminal base, as shown in Figure 1-1.
4
Connect the computer cable to the MODEM port and the
..
prmter cable to the AUX port.
5 Plug the power cord into the terminal's power connector and
into a three-pronged grounded power outlet.
o Note Make sure source of electricity is in the range of the
voltage shown on the back of the terminal (115 V in the U.S.
and Canada, 240 V in many other locations).

Guide
Press the power switch to turn on the terminal. You'll hear an
immediate beep if the terminal has received power, and the
screen may flash display patterns as the terminal tests itself. When
the cursor appears on the screen, the terminal is ready for
operation.
o Note If the bell sounds and an A, C, E, W, X, Y, or Z appears
at the bottom of the screen, press ISetup I (I Reset I, I Sys Reg I,
ISelect I) to exit the self-test. If a K appears, turn the power off,
then hold @] down while you turn the power back on. If this
does
not work, call your service representative. If the error codes
0, 1, 9, p, or P appear, call your service representative-the
terminal needs to be serviced by a qualified technician.

ADJUSTING THE TERMINAL
Figure 1-2 Height-Adjustable
Arm
Installing the Terminal
Adjust the screen's brightness with the slideswitch at the right
front
corner. If you want the keyboard slanted up slightly, turn it
over and pull out the hinged foot. A height-adjustable arm is
available as an option (see Figure 1-2).
