Connecting Using RFTerm
Before you make a host connection, you will, at a minimum, need to know:
•the alias name or IP address (Host Address) and
•the port number (Telnet Port) of the host system to properly set up your host session.
1.Make sure the mobile client network settings are properly configured. If you are connecting via WLAN (802.11x), make sure your MX7 Tecton is connected to the network.
2.Launch RFTerm by tapping the RFTerm icon on the desktop.
3.Select Session > Configure from the application menu and select the host type. This is dependent on the host system to which you are connecting; i.e., 3270 mainframe, AS/400 5250 server or VT host.
4.Enter the Host Address of the system. This may either be a DNS name or an IP address of the host system.
5.Update the telnet port number if your host application is configured to listen on a specific port. If not, use the default telnet port.
6.Select OK.
7.Select Session > Connect from the application menu or tap the Connect button on the Tool Bar.
