Getting Started

When VT500 7-Bitis selected, all 8-bit codes are converted to their 7-bit equivalents, whereas VT500 8-Bitleaves 8-bit codes unchanged. If you are using VT200 applications, select VT500 7-Bit. Refer to the DEC VT Emulations chapter for details.

The VT+HP220 emulation is based on the VT500 terminal series and includes the HP function keys F1 - F8 (not user programmable). The terminal ID is set to VT220.

The VT100+ emulation is an enhanced version of the VT100 emulation that provides additional functionality such as colours. It is the same as the VT-UTF8 emulation except that it only supports ASCII characters 0-127 (decimal).

The VT-UTF8emulation is an enhanced version of the VT100 emulation that supports non-English and drawing characters. It supports localization of the single- byte and double-byte character sets and all other languages supported by Windows. Additional functionality, such as colours, is also provided.

The WY50, WY50+ and WY60 emulations provide compatibility with software designed to drive the Wyse WY-50, WY-50+ and WY-60 terminals, respectively. Refer to the Wyse Emulations chapter for information on these emulations.

The WYSE PCTerm emulation provides compatibility with software designed for the PC Term personality supported by Wyse. Keyboard scan codes are sent on key press/ release instead of ASCII codes by default.

GraphicsMode

The Graphics Mode option is only available if your version of TeemTalk supports graphics emulations and the Emulation option is set to one of the DEC VT, Ansi BBS, AIXTerm, AT 386 or Sco Console emulations. The setting determines the graphics mode that will be entered when the host sends graphics commands.

The ReGIS emulation enables you to run applications written for the DEC VT340 terminal in ReGIS mode.

The Tek4014 emulation enables you to run applications written for the Tektronix 4010 and 4014 terminals.

The VT640 emulation enables you to run applications written for the Retrographics VT640 terminal.

The W2119 emulation enables you to run applications written for the Westward 2119 terminal.

DECSuiteOptions

The VT Terminal ID option applies to the DEC VT emulations. It specifies what is reported back to the host in response to a terminal identification request. (Note that not all features of the specified terminal may be supported.)

The Cursor Moves Right to Left option applies to the DEC VT, Ansi BBS, AIXTerm, AT 386 and Sco Console emulations. It enables you change the direction in which the text cursor moves across the display.
