Options>Keyboard

Language
Select the correct keyboard language layout for your country. This selection affects where certain text characters are located on the keyboard and which dead keys are available. If a custom keyboard is selected, this option will be disabled and the language specified in the custom keyboard file will be used.

Select Keyboard Map
PASSPORT provides its own TN3270, TN5250, VT, SCO ANSI and WYSE-60 keyboard maps, as well as keyboard maps for other popular terminal emulation packages. This setting affects where the host keys, such as Enter or PF1, are located on the keyboard. Select any of the following:

• PASSPORT

• EXTRA!®

• Rumba

• IBM

• Custom (for PASSPORT PC TO HOST only)
  Select this setting to use customized keyboard settings within the session profile.  

• Server (for PASSPORT WEB TO HOST only)
  Select this setting to use the default keyboard configured by your administrator on the PASSPORT WEB TO HOST Server.

• External File
  Select this setting to use customized keyboard settings stored in a file separate from the session profile.

Customize... Button
Use this button to create a custom keyboard map. When this button is pressed, the Customize Keyboard Editor dialog box is displayed.

Browse... Button
To select a custom keyboard map that has been previously defined, use this button to locate a custom keyboard file. Keyboard map files have the .zkb file extension. Also, custom keyboard files should be used for the emulation type it was created for.

Type Ahead
If enabled, PASSPORT buffers all keystrokes that are typed while the emulator is in the X Clock or X System wait condition. Once the wait condition goes away, PASSPORT then processes the keys that were buffered. The type ahead buffer is large enough to hold 256 keys. If this option is disabled, PASSPORT discards keystrokes that are typed while the emulator is in the wait condition.

Auto-Repeat for AID keys
When enabled, this option allows the user to hold AID keys in order to repeat them. If this option is disabled, the user must press the AID key, release, then press again to repeat.
