2. From the Start Menu select Run...
3. In the box type CMD
4. From the DOS prompt type TELNET
5. From the Microsoft Telnet> prompt, type OPEN 127.0.0.1
   (this can also be the IP address of an iDR unit on a physical network).
   
   The screen should blank and you should get the message below:
   CONNECTED TO IDR
   iDR4>   (if you are connected to an offline iDR-8 you will see iDR8>)
