In addition to the common connection settings, VT hosts require these additional settings:

VT Settings |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Terminal ID |
This setting determines the response that Reflection ZFE sends to the host after a primary device attributes (DA) request. This response lets the host know what terminal functions it can perform. The Reflection ZFE response for each Terminal ID is exactly the same as the VT terminal's response; some applications may require a specific DA response. This terminal ID setting is independent of the Terminal type setting. The options are: VT220, VT420, VT100, DEC-VT100, and VT52. |
|
Local Echo |
Automatic(default). How Reflection ZFE responds to remote echo from a Telnet host: Automatic attempts to negotiate remote echo, but does what the host commands. Yes means Reflection ZFE negotiates local echo with the host, but always echoes, while No means Reflection ZFE negotiates remote echo with the host, but does not echo. |
|
Set Host Window Size |
Yes (default). This setting sends the number of rows and columns to the Telnet host whenever they change. This enables the Telnet host to properly control the cursor if the window size is changed. |
|
Request Binary |
No (default). Telnet defines a 7-bit data path between the host and the terminal. This type of data path is not compatible with certain national character sets. Fortunately, many hosts allow for 8-bit data without zeroing the 8th bit, which resolves this problem. In some cases, however, it may be necessary to force the host to use an 8-bit data path by selecting this check box. |
|
Send LF after CR |
No (default). A "true" Telnet host expects to see a CrNu (carriage return/null) character sequence to indicate the end of a line sent from a terminal. There are some hosts on the Internet that are not true Telnet hosts, and they expect to see a Lf (linefeed) character following the Cr at the end of a line. If you're connecting to this type of Telnet host, select Yes. |
|
Host Character Set |
The default value for the Host character set depends on the type of terminal you are emulating. This setting reflects the current terminal state of VT Host Character Set, which can be changed by the host. The associated default setting, saved with the model is DEC Supplemental. |
|
Auto Answerback |
No (default). This setting specifies whether the answerback message (set with the Answerback property) is automatically sent to the host after a communications line connection. |
|
Answerback String |
This setting allows you to enter an answerback message if the host expects an answer in response to an ENQ character. |
|
Display columns |
Number of columns to display 80 (default) |
|
Display rows |
24 rows (default). This setting specifies the number of rows to display. |
