Backspace
Key Method
This setting determines how the backspace key performs. The backspace key
method can be set to any of the following:
Auto Skipping Backspace
If the cursor is in an unprotected field, performs as Backspace. If
the cursor is in a protected field, it moves to the last position
of the previous unprotected field.
Backspace
The cursor is moved one space to the left. If the cursor is located
in an unprotected field the character at that position is deleted.
Backspace/Stop at Field
Attribute
If the position to the left of the cursor is in an unprotected field,
the cursor is moved one space to the left and the character in that
position is deleted. Otherwise, the X inhibited condition is displayed
in the OIA area. The Reset key must then be pressed to reset this
condition.
Cursor Left
The cursor is moved one space to the left. The character is not deleted.
This is a non-destructive backspace.
Cursor Left/Stop at Field
Attribute
If the position to the left of the cursor is in an unprotected field,
the cursor is moved one space to the left. Otherwise, the X inhibited
condition is displayed in the OIA area. The Reset key must then be
pressed to reset this condition.
Automatically Unlock Keyboard and Reset
X SYSTEM
If you press the ENTER key or some other host key and the X SYSTEM stays
on the OIA line and does not go away, then select this check box. This
can occur when the IBM Host application does not send the Keyboard
Unlock command to PASSPORT.
Send Reset key before Tab and Arrow
Keys
If you check this option and you use any of the up, down, left or
right arrow keys, or the Tab, Back Tab, Home or Newline keys, the Reset
key is sent first to release any keyboard inhibit condition. A keyboard
inhibit condition is indicated by the X in the OIA status line. Then the
up, down, left or right arrow key is sent to move the cursor accordingly.
Reset Insert Mode when AID Sent to
Host
When enabled, insert mode is turned off whenever and AID key (Enter, PF1,
etc.) is sent to the host. When disabled, insert mode is not affected
when AID keys are sent to the host.
Allow Cursor Movement to Unprotected Fields
Only
When enabled, the cursor can only be moved to unprotected fields. If an
attempt to move the cursor to a protected field is made the cursor is
not moved. When disabled, the cursor can be positioned anywhere on the
host screen including both protected and unprotected fields.
Display
Host Response Time on OIA Line
Enable this option to display in seconds the host response time after an
AID key is pressed. This option is disabled by default.
