Getting Started

The TA6530 emulation provides compatibility with software designed to drive the Tandem 6530 terminal. This emulation is described in the TA6530 Emulation chapter.

The TVI 910, TVI 920 and TVI 925 emulations provide compatibility with software designed to drive the TeleVideo 910+, 920 and 925 terminals, respectively, as emulated by the Wyse WY-50/50+/60 terminals. Refer to the Wyse Emulations chapter for details.

The TVI 950 and TVI 955 emulations provide compatibility with software designed to drive the TeleVideo 950 and 955 terminals, respectively.

The VT52 and VT100 emulations enable you to run applications written for the DEC VT52 and VT100 terminals, respectively. Refer to the DEC VT Emulations chapter for information on these emulations.

The VT500 7-Bitand VT500 8-Bitemulations enable you to run applications written for the DEC VT320 terminal, the difference is in their treatment of 8-bit control codes. 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 information on these emulations.

The VT PCTerm emulation provides compatibility with software designed for the PC Term mode supported by DEC. This is the same as the VT510 emulation except that keyboard scan codes are sent on key press/release instead of ASCII codes by default.

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.

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.

DEC Suite Options

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.

The High Function Terminal option is displayed when the AIXTerm emulation is selected. This enables you to switch between HFT (High Function Terminal) mode (default) and VT100 mode.
