Applicable special features of these terminals are shown in Table F-1 and
are described below.
Termtypes
As a user of an HP 3000 system, you may choose to specify a termtype when
you log onto MPE; for example,
:HELLO username.acctname;term=nn
However, VPLUS/V only supports a subset of the available termtypes. They
are termtypes 10, 12, 14, and 24.
A termtype that is not supported by VPLUS/V may be:
* Rejected as an error if VPLUS/V knows that it cannot continue, or
* Mapped to a supported termtype if this will allow VPLUS/V to
continue.
When VPLUS/V maps an unsupported termtype to one that is supported, the
terminal driver is reconfigured to the original termtype when VPLUS/V
closes the terminal. Finally, VPLUS/V defers to the Workstation
Configurator when editing termtype if that facility is available.
Modified Data Tag
You do not have to take any action to utilize this feature. Only the
fields which have been modified are transmitted to the computer. This
feature is supported on the following terminals:
HP 150 HP 2393A HP 2624A/B
HP2394A HP 2625A
HP2397A HP 2628A
Extended Local Edits
This feature provides for the editing of information by the terminal as
it is typed into the form. You specify the editing to be done by using
the command LOCALEDITS in the field processing specification section.
The HP 2624B and HP 2394A terminals supports this feature.
Relabeling Function Keys
This feature allows you to specify during forms creation or modification
time function key labels that will be used during data entry. Function
key labeling is supported by VPLUS/V on all terminals except the data
capture devices. On HP 264X terminals, VPLUS/V uses the last two screen
lines to emulate function key labels, which are available as a terminal
feature on all other HP terminals.
Security Display Enhancement
This feature allows you to inhibit the display of the data in certain
fields. When this feature is used, the characters entered at the
terminal are displayed as blanks on the screen. The security display
enhancement is supported on the following terminals:
HP 150 HP 2393A HP 2624B
HP2394A HP 2625A
HP 2626A
HP 2628A
