Customizing Session Properties

Session properties are set on a per-device basis. There are three session properties tabs: Terminal,
Login Scripts and Logging.
Terminal
Terminal properties include:
Virtual terminal window size.
Terminal emulation type: ASCII, VT52, VT100, VT100+, VT102, VT220 or VT320. See
Serial Console Viewer Terminal Emulation on page 105 for lists of the supported terminal
emulation control characters and byte sequences for each emulation type.
The terminal type used during Telnet session negotiation.
Sequences to send for each of the
New line mode. This property enables or disables the automatic insertion of a line after each
line of data. This is useful when connecting to devices that do not insert a carriage return in
incoming or outgoing data, and prevents overwriting data when a new line is received.
Auto line wrap. This property enables or disables wrapping characters onto the next line when
a new character is received and the cursor is at the end of the line. When disabled, new
characters will overwrite the last character on the line when the cursor is at the end of the line.
Local echo. This property enables or disables the repeating of typed text. When you are con-
nected to a device that does not repeat or echo the data you type, enabling local echo displays
the typed text. However, if your device echoes data, enabling local echo will cause all typed
data to appear twice.
Strip 8th bit. This property enables or disables 7-bit ASCII. When enabled and you are
connected to a device that requires 7-bit ASCII transmission, the eighth bit of every character
sent and received will be stripped.
History buffer size. This property specifies the maximum number of lines that the history
buffer can hold. See Using History Mode on page 63 for more information.
Macro group. This option specifies the macro group to be used during a device session. The
macros in the specified group will appear in the Macro menu. See Using Macros on page 57
for more information.
