File Maintenance Security Information.

Create the Port in BBRWIN.CFG
The port must be configured properly in BBRWIN.CFG.
Note: Editing the file BBRWIN.CFG should only be done by Epicor
personnel.
Configure the port as a socket port in BBRWIN.CFG (socket port = 40000 + port
number, type=2). The following example configures port 76:

Re-Launch Dimensions
After the port has been created in VM5 and BBRWIN.CFG, bye off and re-launch
the port so that the above changes will take effect.
Create Required File
A new file, RFH.d, is required. Create it with 100 records using DS08911.
Configuring TelnetCE
The handheld device uses a TelnetCE terminal emulator to connect to the
Dimensions server. In many ways, this is comparable to the way an Axel or Wyse
terminal connects.
To configure the TelnetCE client see the section Installing TelnetCE (Wavelink) in
the Appendix at the end of this document.
