(Series 800 Only)
VT320 Terminal Support
Because the VT320 terminal has prede®ned local functions for keys labeled as F1, F2, F3 and F4, users should use following mapping when they desire to use function keys:
HP or Wyse60 | VT320 or HP 700/60 in VT320 mode |
F1 | PF2 | ! |
F2 | PF1 | ! |
F3 | space bar |
F4 | PF3 | ! |
F5 | F10, [ EXIT ], F5 * |
F6 | none | |
F7 | F18, ®rst unlabeled key to right of Pause/Break* |
F8 | F19, second unlabeled key to right of Pause/Break* |
*When using PC-AT keyboard with HP 700/60 in VT320 mode
!See "Con®guration: HP 700/60 in DEC mode, or DEC terminals with PC-AT type keyboard"
Further, since DEC terminals do not support softkey menu, no such menu is displayed on these termi- nals.
Many applications tend to use TAB for forward navigation (moving from one ®eld to another) and shift-TAB is used for backward navigation. Users having DEC terminals or using terminals in DEC emulation modes such as VT100 or VT320 may note that these terminals/emulators may give out same character for TAB and shift-TAB. As such, it is impossible for an application to distinguish between TAB and shift-TAB, and both of them treated as if a TAB key was pressed. It might present slight overhead to users in case they want to go backwards. Now instead, they should complete rest of the inputs and get back to the desired ®eld later.
VT100 Terminal Support
VT100 does not allow the (f1-f8) function keys to be con®gured. Therefore, the following keyboard mappings will apply to VT100 terminals:
HP or Wyse60 | VT100 or HP 700/60 in VT100 mode |
F1 | PF2 | ! |
F2 | PF1 | ! |
F3 | space bar |
F4 | [PF3], [space bar] or [PF3], [=] ! |
F5 | return |
F6 | none | |
F7 | none | |
F8 | none | |
