    1.$ RUN AVERAGE
 <Ctrl/Y>

      $ CONNECT/CONTINUE VTA72

      In this example, you use the RUN command to execute the image
      AVERAGE.EXE. You enter this command from a terminal that is
      connected to a virtual terminal. Next, you press Ctrl/Y to
      interrupt the image. After you interrupt the image, enter the
      CONNECT command with the /CONTINUE qualifier. This operation
      issues the CONTINUE command, so the image continues to run and
      connects you to another virtual terminal. You can reconnect to
      the process later.

      This example shows how to reconnect to your original process
      after you have lost the carrier signal. First, you must log
      in again and create a new process. After you log in, enter the
      SHOW USERS/FULL command to determine the virtual terminal name
      for your initial process. Then enter the CONNECT command to
      connect to the virtual terminal associated with your original
      process. The process from which you enter the CONNECT command
      is logged out because you have not specified any qualifiers.

      When you reconnect to the original process, you continue
      running the image that you were running when you lost the
      carrier signal. In this example, the user SMITH was at
      interactive level when the connection was broken.
