What in the world?

As part of my going away gift to my soon-to-be-former office, I'm supposed
to dust off a SCSI drive array and see if it can be made 'workable'.  Fine,
no problem.

It's a CMD CRD-5500.  Attach the modem cable, fire up Tera Term, Vt100,
N,8,1.  The boot up info is streaming FROM the controller to the term
window, but when it's time to "push any key" for the main menu, diddly squat
it's not taking input.

What am I missing?  It's something basic, but I'm so turned around and
messed up getting ready to move I just don't get it .....

end, it's our bonds of friendship that keep us from falling overboard.
Riff: YOU SHOT ME!
Torg: Oh wonk-wonk-wonk.  Bonds of friendship man!  Let it go!
