1.1 DL TCL™
Datalogic Terminal Emulation Client (DL TCL™) is a software providing VT100,
VT220 and IBM5250/3270 Telnet terminal emulation on Datalogic RF portable
terminals having an hardware architecture based on the DOS operating system.
If some parameters of the DL TCL™ configuration, defined and downloaded through
the DL Mobile Configurator™ Enterprise 2 (see DL Mobile Configurator™ Enterprise
2 User’s Manual for details), must be modified, it is possible to define their new
values directly from the terminal. In particular, a series of multi-setup menus allows:
- managing the scanner parameter;
- selecting 6 different fonts, plus one custom;
- managing beeper and backlight;
- logging events;
- autologin;
- relocating lines;
- managing different scrolling modes;
- managing the printer through electrical or IrDA interface;
- managing the connection to specific Hosts.
In addition, the user may also configure the main parameters of the following radio
types:
- Cisco 340 / 350 (IEEE 802.11b)
- Lucent / Artem (IEEE 802.11b)
- Symbol 11 Mb (IEEE 802.11b)
- Symbol 2 Mb (IEEE 802.11)
- Proxim 7400 (Open Air), available only for F7400 terminals
DL TCL™ satisfies all the connection modes required by your application.
It supports the Multi-Host functionality through which it may connect to a Host chosen
from a list, generated by the DL Mobile Configurator™ Enterprise program, of up to 5
Hosts.
Furthermore, in association with the DL Keep Connecting™ software package (see
the DL Keep Connecting™ User’s Manual for details), the terminal loading DL TCL™
can try a connection up to 4 PCs communicating with a remote Host. Once
connected to one of these PCs (Keep Connecting PC), the terminal can manage
multiple sessions and define a complete configuration through the multi-level setup
menu. In addition, the configuration can be set from the remote host and saved to
one or more files to be transmitted to the terminals via radio by using the FTP
protocol.
