5.2 Use with IBM’s AIX Unix

5.2.1 Use as a Serial AIX Terminal Device

It is recommended that you use the “Ansi/SCO” emulation mode for the terminal. You can integrate the required termcap and terminfo parameters from the files scoansi.tc and scoansi.ti

available on the www.SpotLine.com website.

The file scoansi.ti file needs to be compiled with your UNIX tic program (Terminfo compiler) to create the necessary terminfo entries. This compilation must take place under root level administration.

For example:

ic scoansi.ti

To use your SpotLine terminal with the standard UNIX utilities, it is necessary to declare it as an Ansi device in your environment variables, or termcap and terminfo files.

5.2.2 Use as a Telnet terminal

Communications port parameters:
