    The Signon screen indicates the version, release, modification, and Program Update Tape (PUT) levels of IBM Connect:Direct.

  2. Type your user ID and press Enter.

    Depending upon your site configuration, you may also need to type in a password, a new password, node name, transport, communications address, and case sensitivity option before pressing Enter. These parameters are described in SIGNON Command, or press PF1 for Help.

    If you are using the Extended Submit Facility (ESF), the DTF does not need to be active to execute the SIGNON, SIGNOFF, and SUBMIT commands.

    Note: If the Error requesting session, IBM Connect:Direct may be inactive message is displayed, the IBM Connect:Direct DTF is not started.

If your signon is successful, the Primary Options Menu is displayed, unless you have updated your SIGNON defaults to execute an initial command.
