3.4 Tips
Connecting via
'fixed ttys'
Multisessions on
terminals/PCs
Note: At this point, check the host table again for correct
entries, then check the network connection and host
machine you're connecting to.
While in session to the host machine, you can return to the
terminal server by using a hot key. This is user-defined, but
defaults to ^]. Press this key and the Connections Menu is
displayed. To resume your connection select the host
session you were on (notice that the name of the host is now
displayed where *** FREE *** was). Press the
bring up the Connection pop-up menu, then select the
Resume Connection option.
Note: If the ^] did not work, you might have a conflict with
that character sequence and should check the Keys section
of this port.
When logging out of your session the connection is
automatically closed.
The Terminal Server has the ability to create a 'fixed tty'
under Unix. This is helpful for older or secure Unix
applications that require a fixed location for each terminal.
Consult section 8, Other Devices Setup .
The Terminal Server is capable of supporting multiple
sessions. This allows the user to connect to all four
*** FREE *** sessions with different hosts and move between
them using the ^] hot key. You can also key through the
screens by setting the session key (e.g. If set to ^A you would
bounce through the screens with a ^A1, ^A2, ^A3, ^A4.). If
you are using a terminal that supports video pages such as
the Wyse 60, the screens will be refreshed if you set the
video pages field on the Port Menu to the number of pages
supported by your terminal (for Wyse 60 = 3).
