C 7 cons, CP, remote - Tahoe console interface The console is available to the processor through the console registers. It acts like a normal terminal, except that a ``~'' is used to transfer commands to the console processor when the front panel key switch is in the ``foo'' or ``bar'' position.

Useful commands to the console processor include ``~h'' to halt the machine and ``~b'' to force a reboot. When the console processor is in control, a ``#>'' prompt is displayed. To continue execution after halting the machine with ``~h'', use ``r.''. Refer to the Tahoe console processor handbook for the complete list of facilities available through the console processor.

The CP device provides direct access to the console processor. The remote device is a secondary console terminal used for remote diagnosis; it is normally connected to a modem.
