You must conufigure your terminal emulation program into ANSI emulation (in HyperTerminal's File->Proparties->Settings window). Then enter The ACO BBS phone number andpress Dial.
    When modem connection is established then there comes following text into screen "Press Esc-Esc ". This insturcts you what to do next - press [Esc]-key on the keyboard twice and then there comes onto screen The ACO BBS login. Type in your name and last name there. Then press [Enter].
    When you are first-time user the BBS system asks you some questions that you must answer (address, phone number, etc.). Don't be alarmed - this information is only for BBS's sysop's use to have some idea who and how often uses the BBS. After this done system asks you to choose a password for your login. And then you are in! For the start with Disgrace access level, that gives not too much time to surf in and not too many KB-s to download from. But you can ask any time SysOp to raise your level to Normal or even more...

Happy connecting.
