The XML to request a UTS MATIP screen object is as follows:
<ScreenUts Columns="80" Rows="24"> <MatipClient HostName="yourhost" Addressing2Byte="true" H1="yourH1" H2="yourH2" A1="yourA1" A2="yourA2" TA="yourTA" \> <\ScreenUts>
Additional ScreenUts and MatipClient XML parameters are shown in the tables below. Except where noted, these parameters use the following syntax:
name="value"
where name is the name of a parameter and value is a valid value for that parameter. These tags should be placed within the object being defined. For example, to set the TransmitMode parameter, the first line of the XML shown above would be changed from
<ScreenUts Columns="80" Rows="24">to
<ScreenUts Columns="80" Rows="24" TransmitMode="ALL">
The default values are shown in bold in the Value column or given in the Description column. If a parameter is not included in the Web page, its default value is used automatically.
ScreenUts XML Parameters | ||
---|---|---|
Parameter | Value | Description |
TransmitMode | VAR | Only unprotected data is transmitted. |
ALL | All data is transmitted. | |
CHAN | Only changed data is transmitted. | |
DestructiveSpace | True | The character at the cursor location is deleted when you press the space bar. |
False | Pressing the space bar moves the cursor to the right without deleting any characters. | |
UpperCaseOnly | True | Only uppercase characters are displayed in the viewer window. The letters that appear uppercase only are determined by the CaseLowBoundry and CaseHighBoundry. Any letters between the specified letters display only in uppercase. |
False | Both lowercase and uppercase characters are displayed. | |
CaseLowBoundry | character | The letter that indicates the beginning of the range of characters that should
appear in uppercase when UpperCaseOnly is True. For example, if CaseLowBoundry is b and CaseHighBoundry is y, and UpperCaseOnly is True, the letters b through y will appear only in uppercase, but any characters outside of that range (in this example, a and
z) will appear in both lowercase and uppercase.
The default value is a. |
CaseHighBoundry | character | The letter that indicates the end of the range of characters that should
appear in uppercase when UpperCaseOnly is True.

MATIP XML Parameters | ||
---|---|---|
Parameter | Value | Description |
ConnectionStatusInterval | seconds | The number of seconds of inactivity (no data exchanged between the client and host) that should elapse before the client verifies whether or not the connection with the host still exists. This is also the number of seconds that will elapse between connection status queries if the value for ConnectionStatusRetries is greater than 1.
If ConnectionStatusRetries is 0 or blank, any value for ConnectionStatusInterval is ignored. The default value is 0. |
ConnectionStatusRetries | number | The number of consecutive unanswered connection status queries that should be made before the session is closed. A typical number of retries would be between 1 and 10.
If ConnectionStatusRetries is 0 or blank, the client will not make any connection status queries. The default value is 0. |
CnfUrl | URL | The URL of an Attachmate Lantern Gateway CNF file (if any) that contains additional confiugration information. |
ConcentratorHost | ipaddr | IP address or domain name of MATIP concentrator or host. It is identical to HostName. |
ConcentratorPort | number | TCP port on which MATIP concentrator or host is listening for connections. Default is 350. |
SODelay | milliseconds | Time in milliseconds before MATIP Sign On (SO) packet is sent to the host after a TCP/IP connection is established. |
Addressing2Byte | True | Use 2-byte addressing when connecting to MATIP concentrator or host. |
False | Use 4-byte addressing when connecting to MATIP concentrator or host. | |
UseTidServer | True | The viewer obtains its station ID (SID) from ID Manager.
If UseTidServer is True, any value associated with SID is ignored. |
False | The viewer uses the station ID specified by the SID parameter.
If UseTidServer is False, any value associated with UserName or AddressPool is ignored. |
|
AddressPool | poolname | The name of the address pool from which to obtain a SID. This name must match an address pool name in ID Manager.
If UseTidServer is False, any value associated with AddressPool is ignored. If a value is specified for AddressPool, any value associated with UserName is ignored. The default value is blank. |
UserName | username | The name of the user for whom to obtain a SID from ID Manager. This name must match a user name in ID Manager.
