NOTE: A Hotspot is a field on the terminal display where a user can tap
with a stylus to execute a function. This allows a user to interact with a
host application with minimal needs for special host keys.
A simple example might be the use of PF Keys. An operation associated
with a PF key might be displayed on the terminal as "PF1 = Help".
CETerm automatically detects this as a Hotspot and will send a PF1 key
to the host when you tap on the PF1 text on the terminal display. Refer to
the Hotspots section for further details.
Menu Item Hotspots: Check this attribute to enable Hotspot functionality for
menu items. When enabled, you will be able to just tap the menu item number on
the terminal display to invoke the corresponding menu item operation. An
example of this would be a menu such as:
1. Shipping
2. Receiving
3. Inventory
The user can just tap on “1.” to invoke a “Shipping operation.
IBM Hotspots: 3270 and 5250 applications have several keywords, which are
commonly used across many applications. Check this attribute to enable these
commonly used keywords as Hotspots. Examples are “Enter”, “More” and
“Bottom”. IBM Mouse and light pen activation must have IBM Hotspots
enabled.
VT Hotspots: VT host applications have several keywords, which are commonly
used across many applications.
Configure KeyBars and Keys
The “Config KeyBars and Keys…” button is used to configure custom KeyBars, associate
device application keys with operations, remap device hardware keys and
Keybar Cycle
A KeyBar configuration consists of both the KeyBar Cycle and any Custom or template
KeyBars. A KeyBar is a set of keys visible at one time. The KeyBar Cycle is a collection
of KeyBars that can be visible. The user "cycles" through the collection of KeyBars by
tapping the arrow buttons on either end of the current KeyBar. Each key on the KeyBar is
associated with a host or emulator operation. Users are allowed a maximum of eighteen
KeyBars, six of which can be customized. The same KeyBar may be added multiple
times to the KeyBar Cycle.
