AUTOMATIC LOGIN
You can automate the login process to a host application for a given session. To do so, configure
the host terminal session.
•
••
• Starting at the first screen, record a macro for logging into the host application and
navigating to the desired host application screen.
•
••
• Logout and playback the macro manually, using the macro toolbar, to ensure it works
properly.
•
••
• Once satisfied, check the “Macro on Connect” option. You can do this from the
”Advanced” dialog of the “Connection” tab from the [Session][Configure] dialog.
CREATING A MINI-MACRO
Within the Naurtech smart clients, most application operations have an associated ID Action (or
IDA) code defined. These IDA codes can be chained to create a sequence of events, which is
called a mini macro. This sequence of events can be remapped to any key.
You can use the User Text configuration to define a sequence of IDA operations which will get
executed is serial order. This is a mini-macro. To create your mini macro:
1. Navigate to [Session]->[Configure]->[Options]->[Config KeyBars and
Keys]->[User Text]
2. Enter your IDA sequences for Text n entries, where n is an index number between 1
and 64. The syntax is demonstrated via examples below.
3. Now you can remap Text n to any application, hardware or KeyBar key. Note that there
are KeyBar buttons only for Text 1 through 20
Text 1 = \IDA_SESSION_S1\\IDA_SLEEP_5000\\IDA_SESSION_CONNECT\
In the example above, Text 1 will trigger the following operations in order:
•
••
• It will switch to session S1
•
••
• Wait for 5 seconds (5000 milliseconds)
•
••
• Attempt to connect to the configured host on this session
Text 2 = \IDA_SESSION_DISCON_ALL\\IDA_PROGRAM_EXIT\
In the example above, Text 2 will trigger the following operations in order:
•
••
• Disconnect all connected host sessions
•
••
• Exit CETerm application
You can join several IDA actions to create an elaborate macro to automate application navigation
steps. Please contact us at [e-mail]

mini macros.
