VT Terminal ID
Factory default: VT420
This specifies what is reported back to the host in response to a terminal identification request. You can either select from the list of IDs or you can edit the text box and enter a different terminal identity. (Note that not all features of the specified terminal may be supported.)
National
Factory default: Unselected
This will only be available if the system is configured for a language that supports national replacement character sets.
The setting of this option determines the type of character set used to generate characters. When selected, a character set specific to the selected keyboard nationality is used. When unselected (default) the emulator is in Multinational mode, a character set consisting of two tables of characters is used. This enables characters from any keyboard nationality to be generated.
Tertiary Device Attribute
When the emulator is in VT420 mode (Emulation set to VT500 and Terminal ID set to VT420), this option enables you to specify the tertiary device attribute report that is sent in response to a request from the host.
Answerback String
This option enables you to specify the Answerback string that is sent to the host in response to an ANSI mode enquiry command. The string may be up to 30 characters long.
Answerback Concealed
Factory default: Unselected
Selecting this option will cause the Answerback string specified in the text box above to be locked from change and displayed as asterisks. Note that deselecting this option will cause the Answerback string to be deleted.
