Terminal

To activate the Terminal application:

1Go to the Internet applications main view.

2Scroll down to Terminal and press Select.

The Terminal application is used to connect directly (not via Internet) to a remote computer by way of a data call.

The Terminal main view shows defined Terminal connections. The Terminal application is similar to the Telnet application, in that both applica- tions emulate the VT100 terminal display

(see Figure 7-8). The display occupies the left side of the screen (screen size is 80 characters in 24 lines).

Select the host and connection initiation proce- dures the same way for a Terminal connection as for a Telnet connection. To connect with a se- lected pre-defined Terminal connection, press Connect (see "Define Terminal connections: Ter- minal connection" on page 7-19). To create new or edit existing connections, press Define (see "Define Terminal connections" below).
