Access Terminal Emulation Parameters
Before you make a host connection, you will, at a minimum, need to know:
• the alias name or IP address (Host Address) and
• the port number (Telnet Port) of the host system
to properly set up your host session.
1. Make sure the mobile client network settings are configured and functional. If you are
connecting over wireless LAN (802.11b/g), make sure your mobile client is communicating
with the Access Point.
2. From the
| Programs, run LXE RFTerm® or tap the RFTerm icon on the desktop.
3. Select Session | Configure from the application menu and select the “host type” that you
require. This will depend on the type of host system that you are going to connect to; i.e.
3270 mainframe, AS/400 5250 server or VT host.
4. Enter the “Host Address” of the host system that you wish to connect to. This may either be a
DNS name or an IP address of the host system.
5. Update the telnet port number, if your host application is configured to listen on a specific
port. If not, just use the default telnet port.
6. Select OK
7. Select Session | Connect from the application menu or tap the “Connect” button on the
Command Bar. Upon a successful connection, you should see the host application screen
displayed.
To change options such as Display, Colors, Cursor, Barcode, etc., please refer to the RFTerm
Reference Guide on the LXE Manuals CD.
Saving Settings to the Registry
The HX2 saves the registry when you:
• Tap the
| Run | then type Warmboot. Tap OK.
• Perform a Suspend / Resume function (by tapping the Power key and then tapping it
again).
• Install Restart in the Start menu by
| Run | then type CTL RESTART=1 and tap the OK
button. Tap
| Restart.
The registry save process takes 0 – 3 seconds. If nothing has been changed, nothing is saved (e.g.
0 seconds)
The registry is automatically saved every 20 minutes. It is also saved every tenth time the registry
settings are changed. Registry settings are changed when control panel applet (e.g. Date/Time)
parameters are changed by the user and a warm boot was not performed afterward.
When you tap the | Run | then type Coldboot and tap the OK button, factory default registry
settings are loaded during coldboot. All user changes and settings are lost.
