Accessing Mitel SX-200 menu numbered commands

[Tendivski]

Re: thread1329-1563026
To follow up on the tips for terminal access to a Mitel SX-200. Each screen has a menu on the bottom, each command is numbered. To access the commands, press ESC followed by the number. That is, the Esc key on your PC keyboard and the number for the menu command. E.g. if the "Quit" menu item is 0, press Esc and then 0.
As per other advice, I downloaded ZOC and used a VT100 Telnet session on port 2000 to connect to the IP of the SX-200. Couldn't get Putty to work for some reason.

Putty works great, for the 200/200ICP make sure you set the line disiple option under terminal to off, Under translation check the enable vt100 line drawing even if utf8 mode

There are some finicky adjustments you need to make to putty. Once done, works great.

One is the font for example to make it appear correctly

One had something to do with the cursor controls

Just fiddle a bit until you get it, putty is so easy otherwise if you want to capture text or screenshots.

Kermit backups are an issue though. For that I use Teraterm.
