<b><i>The SDF Travelling AT&T 605 UNIX Terminal</i></b>
|
|
</center>
|
|
<h4>What is it?</h4>
|
|
This is a former terminal used on the AT&T 3B2/500 (retired 1998). It has been modified to work
|
|
as a stand alone computer using a Raspberry Pi Zero W. Just give it a WIFI/hotspot and coordinate
|
|
with SDF to use it at a vintage computer festival and help spread awareness of SDF's past as well
|
|
as what we're doing today.
|
|
<h4>How do I get it?</h4>
|
|
The terminal can be borrowed for up to 2 weeks. It is shipped in a double box with signage, an
|
|
ipod/headphones (for the NPR story) and an assortment of SDF stickers and CDs to give away. To
|
|
reserve the terminal for use at your event, contact 'membership' and provide full details. Please be
|
|
sure to give enough lead time, preferrably 2 weeks prior to your event.

<h4>Technical Information</h4>
|
|
<b>Configuration / New setup:</b><br>
|
|
Login as the user 'pi' with the randomly generated password and run 'sudo raspi-config'. This will
|
|
allow you to setup the network once you're on site. Enter your SSID and passphrase through this dialog<p>
|
|
<b>Usage:</b><br>
|
|
While featuring raspian isn't really the point, you could use the terminal to feature local programs.
|
|
If you login as user 'menu' password 'menu' and you have a network, you'll be connected to the Living
|
|
Computer Museum's TTY service which will then allow you to connect to several vintage machines. Logging
|
|
in as 'sdf' will take you to the old AT&T 3B2/500 when it is running in Seattle, WA (can be arranged).<p>
|
|
It also features sdfer Seth Morabito's AT&T 3B2/400 emulator which is a bit of a surreal experience - just login
|
|
as '3b2' to spin up a virtual historical SDF.<p>
|
|
|
|
The terminal does not have a battery installed (due to leakage) so when you turn it on, it will default
|
|
to 1200 7E1 with function key labels on. You'll want to set it to 9600 8N1 with labels off.<p>
