Configuring HP-UX For Peripherals

Chapter 4 121
Configuring Terminals and Modems
Additionally Configuring HP-UX for a Terminal
located in the bottom row of the number pad.
• Unlike HP terminals, which provide two lines, Wyse 60 terminals
provide a single line to display softkey labels. Sometimes, this may
result in truncated softkey labels. For example, the "Help on Context"
label for F1 might appear as "Help on C."
DEC VT-Series Limitations
• Two different kinds of keyboards are available for DECterminals — a
DEC/ANSI keyboard with programmable function (PF) keys and a
PC-AT keyboard, which does not provide programmable function
keys.
The function keys F1 through F4 on the DEC/ANSI keyboard are
preassigned. Different keys are used for its programmable function
(PF) keys. Certain applications, such as Dialog Manager based
applications, will remap some of the keys. Other commands may or
may not have any keyboard remapping.
The DEC PC-AT keyboard does not provide PF1, PF2, PF3, or PF4
keys. PF4 can be mapped on a DEC PC-AT keyboard to the - key.
Table 4-6, “Function Key Mappings,” compares use of function keys on
the DEC/ANSI keyboard, DEC PC-AT keyboard, and an HP
keyboard. (Function keys on Wyse keyboards are consistent with HP
keyboards.)
