This chapter introduces the TE 2000t 5250 application.

1TE 20005250 Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide

Getting StartedChapter —1

Understanding Network Protocol Options

TE 2000 applications for the Enterprise Wireless LANt system use one
of the following network protocol options:

S UDP Plus

The terminal communicates with the host computer through the
IntermecRApplication Server and an access point.

S TCP/IP

The terminal communicates through an Intermec access point, which is
directly connected to the host computer on an Ethernet or a token ring
network.

S WTP

The terminal communicates with the host computer through the Inter­mec Application Server, Intermec access point, or other Intermec gate­ways.

For network configuration options, refer to your terminal’s user manual.

Setting Up the Terminal and the Network

Before you can start using the TE 2000 application on your terminal, you
need to do the following:

1 Set up your terminal.

Set-up includes charging and installing the battery pack and turning on
the terminal for the first time. For instructions, refer to your terminal’s
user manual.

Note: Battery packs do not apply to all terminals. Vehicle mount and
stationary terminals are powered via an external source.

2 Configure your terminal and the network.

To use RF communications on the terminal, you need to:

a Configure the Intermec Application Server (UDP Plus or WTP),

other Intermec gateways (WTP), or host (TCP/IP).

b Configure the access point. This does not apply to the 2480/2481 Ter-

minal, which contains an Ethernet NIC instead of a radio.

c Configure the network parameters on the terminal.

Forinstructions,refertoyourterminal’susermanual.

3 Verify that your terminal is communicating correctly with the access

point, Intermec Application Server, or host.

To verify that your terminal is communicating correctly, refer to the
terminal’s user manual for instructions.

the fields on a 5250 TE screen. When you scan data into a f ield on a 5250
TE screen, a Field Exit command clears the rest of the field, advances to
the next field, and triggers an auto-enter field to send an ENTER to the
application and submit the data. You can just scan data and never touch
the keyboard.

To set this up, you need to disable Auto Tab Scan in the TE configuration
menus, and set the Postamble command to the 5250 Field Exit code.
There are three ways to configure the Postamble command:

S Use the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System.
S Download Postamble command from the Intermec

to one or more terminals using UDP Plus protocol.

S Download the Postamble command from a host using the TCP/IP di-

rect connect protocol.

The first two configuration methods are listed in this chapter. The third
method involves creating an application and then downloading the ap­plication to the terminals. For help cr eating the application, refer to your
terminal’s user manual.

R

Application Server

The 5250 Field Exit code is a character in the extended ASCII character
set. The terminal supports the full and extended ASCII character sets. For
a list of the full and extended ASCII characters, refer to your terminal’s
user manual.

Note: You can also configure the postamble by scanning the Postamble
command. However, you cannot scan in extended ASCII characters like
the 5250 Field Exit code.

Using Terminal Emulation Applications—Chapter 2

To disable Auto Tab Scan:

1 Configure the Auto Tab Scan setting to Disable. For help, see Chapter

4, “Using the Terminal Emulation Menus.”
With the Auto Tab Scan feature disabled, the terminal functions as if

the field has a mandatory field exit turned on (an AS/400 activated fea­ture known as Check FE). As a result, legacy AS/400 applications do
not have to be modified to turn this field on properly for bar code sup­port.

The default is Auto Tab Scan disabled.

2 Save your new TE configuration.

To add Field Exit to the postamble via Trakker Antares 2500 Menu System:

1 Access the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System. For help, refer to

your terminal’s user manual.

2 From the Main Menu, choose Configuration Menu > Terminal Menu

> Preamble/Postamble.

3 Move the cursor to the postamble field.
4 Type \x9A for the literal Field Exit code.
5 Press ; or choose OK to save your changes and exit the screen.
6 Exit the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System and save your new

configuration to flash memory. For help, refer to your terminal’s user
manual.

To download Field Exit as a postamble from the Intermec Application Server:

ConfigurethepostambletotheFieldExit’sliteralvalueusingthedown­load server on the Intermec Application Server. Use the download server
on the Intermec Application Server:to configure one or more terminals in
the network.

1 In the download server on the Intermec Application Server: select the

terminal or group to receive the Postamble (AE) configuration com­mand. For help on configuring a group of terminals, refer to the Inter-
mec Application Server User’s Guide (P/N: 072242).

You can continue running the 5250 TE application on the terminal
while configuring a terminal from the Intermec Application Server.

2 Choose the option to enter a command.
3 Type the string $+AE and then enter the ASCII code 154 by holding

down the Alt key while typing 154 on the numeric keypad. You should
see an Ü to represent the literal Field Exit code in the edit box, which
now shows this command and value: $+AEÜ

4 Download the commands to change the runtime configuration of the

terminals selected. The changes are saved in RAM, but not in f lash
memory.

5 To save the configuration change in flash memory, download this

command: .+1
You can also use the TRAKKER Antares 2400 Menu System to save the

configuration in flash memory. Refer to the terminal’s u ser manual.

You can set the postamble or preamble to any character from the extended
ASCII character set using these instructions. Type the literal ASCII value
in step 3 instead of the Field Exit code. To set the preamble, use the syn­tax $+AD instead of $+AE. For more information about screen modes, see
Chapter 4, “Using the Terminal Emulation Menus.”

Special Function Keys

Special function keys are:

S Attention Identification (AID) keys
S Cursor movement keys
S Signal keys
S Field Exit key
S Special control keys
S Special host keys

To enter a special function key:

Press the keys listed in the chapter for the terminal. Or, scan the bar code
in Appendix A, “Bar Code Scanning.”

The following pages describe the special functions keys. For complete de­scriptions, ref er to the appropriate IBM 5250 reference manual.

AID-Generating Keys

AID-generating keys generate AID codes that go in the display data stream
to the host system. They alert the host system that the Intermec Applica­tion Server or controller requires some action.

The terminal emulates all of the AID-generating keys on a 5291 Display
Station. The following lists the keys.

Clear The system environment determines the results of this

key. If the terminal is in session, [CLEAR] issues the AID
code hex BD, which requests the host system issue a
Clear Unit command to the terminal to clear the display.
If not in session, [CLEAR] clears the entire display regen-

eration buffer.
Enter/Rec Adv Enters information.
F1–F24 User-defined command functions. Refer to your applica-

tion’s user manual for detail on the functions.
Help (nonerror state) Issues a hex F3 AID byte to the host system.
Print Tells the controller that the operator wants to print the

contents of the present display. Issues hex F6 to the host

system.
Record Backspace (Home) When pressed with the cursor in the home position, a

record backspace is requested. The AID code hex F8 and

cursor address are sent to the h ost system.
Roll Up and Roll Down Roll display up or down one page. Roll Up issues AID

code hex F5. Roll Down issues AID code hex F4. For

more information on the Roll keys, see next page.

5250 Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Guide

Roll Keys

Using Terminal Emulation Applications—Chapter 2

Roll Up and Roll Down are AID keys the terminal sends to the host to
request and display additional screens. The host transmits a new screen in
response to this command. The new screens allow you to view data either
above or below what appears on the current screen.

5250 Terminals support the Roll command (hex 23) received from a host
application. Using this command, a host application can roll an area of the
screen up or down. The direction of the roll and number of lines to roll
arespecifiedinthecommand.

Do not confuse the Roll Up and Roll Down AID ke y s with the Roll com­mand. The Roll keys cause the host to send down additional screens when
you are at a Roll screen. A Roll screen typically has text in the lower right­hand corner of the screen indicating that there are additional screens to
view.

Note the following:

S A Roll command received from a host application moves the screen, but

not the window/viewport. The screen scrolls through the window/view­port when you roll up or down, but the window/viewport remains sta­tionary.

Cursor Keys

Field E xit Key

S Paging keys (window/viewport page up, window/viewport page down,

window/viewport page right, window/viewport page left) move the
viewport within one screen. They do not move the screen itself.

For help with the Roll command,seeChapter6,“Display Data Stream.”

You can manually move the terminal’s window/viewport by using the cur­sor keys and paging keys. For more information about the window/view­port, refer to the terminal’s user manual.

Field Exit exits an input field and moves the cursor to the beginning of the
next input field. If you press this key while the cursor is between charac­ters, then all characters to the right of the cursor are erased.

Note: On Trakker Antares terminals, you can set the Postamble or
Preamble command to use characters from the extended ASCII character
set such as the Field Exit code for 5250 TE. For he lp, see “Auto-Advancing
through Fields” e arlier in this chapter.

Signal Keys

Special Control Keys

Signal keys cause a Signal command to go from the controller to the host
system. The following describes the signal keys.

Attn The operator presses this key to alert the host system the

function request (such as [ENTER]) is not honored. Attn is
valid when the keyboard is locked or unlocked. It does not
change the keyboard state or the cursor location.

Help (from error state) The operator uses this key to request that the host system

send data about the error to the display.

Use special control keys to change operator-generated information in the
display. The keys do not work when the keyboard is locked.

Del Deletes the character in the position wh e re the curs or was

located. All remaining characters in the field shift to the

left to fill the column.
Erase Input Clears all fields to nulls, and cursor moves to the first in-

put position on screen. This command does not erase

protected fields. If you press this key when the screen

shows only protected fields, the cursor returns to the

home position.
Error Reset Restores the original data on the error line of the display

and resets the state.
Hex Enters hexadecimal codes from the keyboard to generate

any EBCDIC characters needed for input or display.
Home Moves the cursor to the position specified by the insert

cursor (IC) address.
Insert Sets or turns off th e insert mode for the input field the

operator has the cursor in. The operator must reset the

insert state before exiting it, by either pressing [RESET]

or [INSERT] again.
Shift Lock Puts the keyboard into shift lock mode.

Special Host Key

The special 5250 host key is System Request.

Sys Req Data on the e rror line is saved, the error line is cleared, a

14 TE 2000

column separator and underscore field attribute are sup-

plied to column 1 of the error line, and the cursor is lo-

cated under column 2 to begin polling keystrokes.

Using the Terminal’s Keyboard—Chapter 3

For help with using the keyboard, refer to the PEN*KEY Model 6400
User’s Guide (P/N 961-047-093).

51-Key Keyboard

Your 6400 Computer has either a 51-key (left) or a 41-key (right) keyboard as shown.

Characters on the Keyboards

41-Key Keyboard

Unlabeled Key Colors:

Blue

Gold

The special characters and functions printed above the keys are color­coded to correspond with the matching shift keys. The shift keys are:

[Gold] Press [Gold] plus a key to type a character or do an operation printed in gold

on the overlay.

[Blue] Press [Blue] plus a key to do operations printed in blue on the overlay.

The 51-key keyboard has two gray, unlabeled keys in the bottom row.

Using the Terminal’s KeyboardChapter —3

Using the 41-Key Keyboard

The 41-key keyboard has standard numeric keys, an [Enter] key, user-de­fined function keys in its primary plane, and alphabetic keys in its
secondary plane. Because a 41-key keyboard does not have alphabetic keys,
do the following to enter passwords and cold-start the 6400 Computer:

S To enter the password for the Set-Up Parms TE configuration menu,

press [SHFT] [Blue] [3] or [SHFT] [F12] [3] to enter a “C”,
[SHFT] [Blue] [F8] or [SHFT] [F11 ] [3] to enter an “R,” then press
“52401.” Note that these are not case-sensitive.

S To initiate the COLD START? menu option, press [Blue] [F11 ] [RST]

to answer “yes.”

You can use one of two methods to type letters on the 41-key keyboard:
standard blue shift mode or alpha lock mode. When engaged, alpha lock
switches the alphabetic keys with the function keys. That is, it moves
lowercase alphabetic keys from their standard [Blue] plane to the primary
plane. It moves uppercase alphabetic keys from their standard
[SHFT] [Blue] plane to the [SHFT] plane. Alpha lock provides a faster
way to type a series of letters because it reduces the number of key presses.

6400 Cursor Keys

6400 Paging Keys

To engage alpha lock mode press [Blue] [Gold]. Then, to type a series of
letters, press the correct key combination. The keyboard stays in alpha lock
mode until you press [Blue] [Gold] again to unlock it.

37-Key Keyboard

17XX Cursor Keys

Using the Terminal’s Keyboard—Chapter 3

The 37-key keyboard has standard numeric keys, an [Enter] key, and
user-defined function keys in its primary plane. It has alphabetic keys in its
secondary plane, and the special character “ . ” (period).

Because a radio terminal with a 37-key keyboard does not have alphabetic
keys, follow these procedures when using its TE configuration menus and
downloading software to it:

S To access password-protected menus, press [Gold], [Black], [F12],

[F11], then type “52401” for the password; or press [Black], [F3],
[Black], then type “52401” for the password.

S To initiate the COLD START? menu option, press [F10] to answer

“yes.”

S To download software, hold down the [F1 ] key as you power up the

radioterminaltogointodownloadmode.Thisissimilartoholding
down the [I] key on the standard 57-key keyboard.
