'''Terminals''' {{ZClass|9930|Information Vector Console|IVC}} are a [[Forerunner]] interface device.{{Ref/Book|H4EVG|Page=129}}


== Overview ==
The '''Z-9930 Information Vector Console''', also known as '''Terminals''', is a [[Forerunner]] device.<ref>'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 129''</ref>
These terminals are located across many Forerunner constructs which can be accessed by acclimated AI or native [[ancilla]]s. They are generally databases of knowledge and past experiences, but many operate simply as a conduit for information transmitted from the [[Domain]].


While on [[Installation 00]], [[John-117]] discovered a [[Terminal (Halo 3)|number of terminals]] containing ancient Forerunner communications logs, as well as direct messages from [[Mendicant Bias]]. Four years later, while on [[Requiem]] and other Forerunner constructs, [[Cortana]] was able to access [[Terminal (Halo 4)|several of them]], revealing ancient secrets buried by the Forerunners before the activation of the [[Halo Array]].
