2.14.1.1 Connection with a Process Station
When the connection to a chosen process station is established, a prompt is output on
the Server's operating terminal. This prompt shows the relative process station's
Technical Address (e.g. $177).
This EKL can now be operated as though the terminal were connected directly to the
EKL through its local V.24 interface.
For an EKL-X, as different to EKL-P, the following inputs are accepted in addition to
Editor commands (see Function CB):

power failure shortly before it was called with DSS.
