Starting Your Sessions

All of the terminal emulators and all but one of the file transfer products included on your CD run within an application called Accessory Manager. DataXpress–ST has its own application window. (Some other accessories, such as PTR, do not run within Accessory Manager.)

The procedure used to start a session varies, depending on which product you installed and how the product was installed. The following procedures explain how to start Accessory Manager and DataXpress–ST sessions. To create encrypted sessions, see Encrypting EXTRA! for Accessory Manager Sessions or Encrypting OTS Sessions.

To start Accessory Manager and open a session
  1. Click the Windows Start button, point to All Programs, point to Attachmate INFOConnect Enterprise Edition, and click Accessory Manager 32-bit.

  2. To create a new session, click New Session from the File menu. The New Session Wizard guides you through the creation of a session and, if appropriate, an INFOConnect path.

  3. To open an existing session, click Open Session from the File menu and double-click the session to open.

    You can create a shortcut for any existing session and then open that session simply by double-clicking the shortcut. (Refer to your Windows documentation for instructions on this procedure.)

To start DataXpress–ST and open a session
  1. Click the Windows Start button, point to All Programs, point to Attachmate INFOConnect Enterprise Edition, and click DataXpress–ST.

  2. To create a session but not open it, click Session from the Preferences menu and respond to the subsequent prompts.

  3. To create a session and open it automatically, click New Session from the Window menu and respond to the subsequent prompts.
