NOMAD™ - NRT102 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3. PAGE 4 of 10 SETTING UP A TERMINAL FOR FIRST USE Before a terminal can be used on the NOMAD network it must be assigned a node number so that the system can distinguish it from other terminals in the system. This will also clear the memory of the terminal and inform the system that all relevant menus should be loaded into the terminal. 3.
