logs on
Enters the system
Logs on means to begin a session on a computer system or website, typically by entering credentials like a username and password: I log on to check my email every morning.
The phrasal verb treats access as entry—you log on to start, log off to end.
Also appears as the single word logon, usually as a noun: the logon screen.
