General information on MT9750 Session
2.2 Session
A session is the logical connection of two programs for the purposes of
exchanging data. Session in this case refers to a connection between the
MT9750 emulation and a BS2000 application. The MT9750 session runs in a
window in Windows format. The data from the BS2000 host and keyboard input
is displayed in the window work area; this is the presentation area of the host.
Each session is allocated parameters which are saved under the session name
when the session is saved. These parameters relate to the connection configu-
ration and also the configuration of the session display attributes (e.g. the size
of the characters displayed in the work area).
The session attributes are saved locally on your PC in a session file with the file-
name extension .MTS. In addition, the assignment of programmable keys is allo-
cated to each session and is saved in a second file (with the filename extension
.MTK).
There are three special types of session and these are described below:
2.2.1 Temporary session
A temporary session is a session whose parameters are not saved, i.e. it is
only made available once. The connection is only required temporarily, so a per-
manent definition using a connection name is not recommended. In certain
cases, temporary sessions are suitable for guaranteeing reserved access con-
trol as the user must be informed of the required connection parameters.
