SE5 main screen (universe) ? cheatcodes

[Randallw]

Ok I am trying to get alltech to work so I can try out the combat simulator. I found that I need 'Alltech' and that I have to enter it in the main screen (universe). What is that? when I start a new game? the system screen? As soon as I start the game?
