1 Introduction
This chapter introduces TeemTalk and describes the scope of this manual.
What is TeemTalk?
HP's TeemTalk host access software provides the ability to connect and communicate with applications
on mainframes and midrange systems. These connections can be made from virtually any desktop
running Microsoft Windows or Linux. TeemTalk enables desktops to emulate more than 30 different
green screen terminals including IBM 3270, 5250, DEC VT, HP, MDIS Prism, DOC18, Siemens, and
Wyse.
TeemTalk also provides a range of facilities to enhance your terminal emulation experience. These
include the following:
●
Programmable soft buttons.
●
Redefinable key and mouse button functions.
●
Redefinable display attributes and colors.
●
Multiple concurrent sessions displayed on tabs.
●
Auto logon for automating all or part of the host logon process.
●
Script language to automate various operations.
Changes in TeemTalk version7.3
●
TeemTalk is no longer supported under the Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system.
●
FTP file transfer is now supported.
●
Support for Siemens 97801 terminal emulation has been added.
●
Support for ICL DOC-18 terminal emulation has been added.
About This Manual
This manual explains how to use TeemTalk version 7.3. It assumes you are familiar with the operating
system in which you are running TeemTalk. Note that your version of TeemTalk may not support every
emulation or feature described in this manual.

2 Chapter 1 Introduction
2 Getting Started
This chapter describes how to use the TeemTalk Session Wizard to create a session configuration file,
then the various methods available to run it. An overview of the TeemTalk window elements follows,
then descriptions of the configuration bar and status bar.
Creating a Session Using the Session Wizard
Introduction
TeemTalk enables you to create session configuration files which specify the terminal emulation to run
and its settings, how to connect to the host, and additional features such as display colors, soft button
definitions and keyboard macros.
A TeemTalk session configuration file can be created using the TeemTalk Session Wizard as described
in this section, or when TeemTalk is running a session by selecting Save Session As on the File

3 Host Connection
This chapter describes how to configure TeemTalk to communicate with the host.
Introduction
Host connection settings are specified using the Transport and Connection options which can be
found in three locations:
●
TeemTalk Session Wizard:
10 Chapter 3 Host Connection
●
TeemTalk configuration bar:
●
TeemTalk Session menu:
The Transport setting specifies the physical method by which the host connection is made. TeemTalk
supports four transport protocols for communication with the host:
●
TCP/IP
For host communication using the internet protocol suite TCP (Transport Control Protocol) and IP
(Internet Protocol). See
TCP/IP Transport on page 13.
●
SSH2
A secure shell client/server protocol used to encrypt and transmit data securely over a network,
with authentication provided by a password and/or key. See
SSH2 Transport on page 13.
●
Serial
For host communication requiring data to be sent sequentially, one bit at a time, see
Serial
Transport on page 30.
●
SSL
For host connection using the Secure Sockets Layer protocol to encrypt communications and
validate the host/client. See
SSL Transport on page 26.
The Connection setting specifies the host connection protocol. Currently only Telnet is supported.
TeemTalk also provides an Auto Logon feature which enables you to automate all or part of the host
logon procedure by specifying what is sent to the host in response to prompts displayed on the screen.
See
Auto Logon on page 32.
Introduction

Telnet Settings
The settings for a Telnet host connection are specified using the Telnet Settings dialog which can be
displayed using one of the following three methods:
Using the Session Wizard
◦
In Step 1 set Connection to Telnet then click Configure.
Using the TeemTalk Window
◦
On the Session menu, select Connection > Telnet then select Configure
Connection....
◦
On the configuration bar, click Configure Telnet.

button.
●
Terminal Id
Factory default: Depends on the selected terminal emulation
This specifies the terminal identification string that is passed to the host.
●
Send Echo
Factory default: Unchecked
When this option is unchecked the emulator is prevented generating the Telnet echo option on
connection.
●
Send CR with Break
Factory default: Unchecked
This determines whether a Carriage Return is sent with a Telnet break packet.
●
Send TM with Break
12 Chapter 3 Host Connection
Factory default: Unchecked
This determines whether a Timing Mark is sent with a Telnet break packet.

displayed using one of the following three methods:
Using the Session Wizard
◦
In Step 1 set Transport to TCP/IP then click the Configure button.
Using the TeemTalk Window
◦
On the Session menu, select Transport > TCP/IP then select Configure Transport....
◦
On the configuration bar, select TCP/IP in the Transport list box then click Configure
Transport.
