Keys - Black Box 37687 User Manual

Keys

This section defines the various accelerator keys that the Terminal Server responds to. This
section is optionally used. The parameters are as follows:
Terminal Server User Guide
Port setup menu
Option Description
Hot This is the key used to escape from a host connection back to the
Terminal Server Connection Menu. For instance, if you are in a login shell
on a host machine, pressing the hot-key takes you back to the Terminal
Server. The default is ^].
Intr This is a user-definable interrupt key. When selected the Terminal Server
generates a telnet 'interrupt process' signal to the remote host. The default
is ^C.
Quit This field defines the character that generates a telnet BREAK across the
network. Default is ^@.
Del This field defines the character that generates a telnet erase character
signal across the network.
In addition, this key can be used to 'reprogram' the interpretation of the
<left-arrow> key when operating in the menu mode. If the users terminal
generates the same key sequence for <Left-Arrow> and <Backspace>,
then setting this key to Ctrl-H (^H), causes the <Left-arrow> and
<Backspace> keys to be treated as 'delete the last character typed in'.
Default is ^@.
Kill This field defines the character that generates a telnet erase line signal
across the network. Default is ^U.
Sess This key allows users to switch directly from one session to another
without going back through the server menus. This key should be followed
immediately by the session number the user wishes to go to. For
example, if this key is set to Ctrl-F and you want to switch to session 2,
press Ctrl-F2. The default value is ^@.
Echo If this key is given a value then any active telnet session on that port can
toggle between local and remote character echoing done by the Terminal
Server or by the remote host. Default is ^@.
Note
Each of the keys can be set as a single character, or as a control character. To set the
key as a control character the symbol '^' should be used followed by the relevant key.
Alphabetic characters should be specified in upper case. To disable a particular key
the user should enter ^@ in the field.
