Hello,

We are running DU 4.x and we have found an old Motorola 17C X-Terminal
lying around on a shelf. Unfortunatly, the manuals are lost, all we have
is the help screen upon powering on the X Terminal.

We've bnever worked with X Terminals before, only with terminal emulators
like Exceed and we had no problems, but instead of waisting that terminal,
we would like to get it up and running.

How is it supposed to boot ? It has somw weird IP address and we don't know
how to tell it where to connect to and what address to use. Can someone
point me to a source explaining how an X terminal works and how to set it
up ? I've looked at the DEC books but did not find anything useful....

Thanks !
