Configuration
The Teklogix terminal in ANSI mode operates like most other ANSI terminals.
This means software that supports ANSI terminals requires little or no changes.
6.1 Configuration
To configure the terminal for ANSI mode, the “Name” and “Type” of session – in
this case, ANSI – must be specified in the Applications menu. This menu is
described in the section titled, “Applications” on page 146.
Next, a unique terminal number must be assigned using the “Terminal #” parameter.
This number should be unique across the entire system – that is, each terminal and
each application session in each terminal across your system must have a unique
number assigned. This parameter is described in the section titled “ANSI Settings”
on page 147.
When Tekterm is launched, the first configured session will appear in the
application. To display the next session in Tekterm when multiple sessions
are running:
• Press <ALT> <F6>.
Each time this key combination is pressed, the next session window becomes active.
To display a specific, configured application:
• Press the <ALT> key followed by the application number.
For example, press <ALT> 1 to display application number 1,
<ALT> 2 to display application number 2, and so on.
6.2 Sending Data To The Host
Teklogix terminals running ANSI transmit characters to the host as soon as they
are typed.
The terminal also responds immediately to the device attribute requests “CSIc”,
“CSI0c” and “ESCZ”.
Note: For a more detailed description of the parameter settings for ANSI,
refer to “ANSI Settings” on page 147.
