Available Sessions

HOD Hex Client now supports up to 26 sessions. The following session types are displayed on the dashboard, including 3270 and 5250 sessions.

Session Functionality

  1. Save User Configuration (for HTML-based model pages)
    • User changes to the session configurations (like session properties, key remap, color remap and so on) are saved in the browser’s cache.
  2. Combined-Based Model Support:
    • Combined-based model pages work as a combination of HTML-model pages and Config-based model pages.
    • Session created under the groups in the configuration server is listed in the HOD Hex Client html page created in the Deployment Wizard.
    • As in the HTML-based model, there is no login prompt.
    • User updates are stored into the browser cache.
  3. Keystroke Buffering/Type-Ahead
    • Enables the user to enter keystrokes in an emulator session while input is inhibited; keystrokes are buffered and processed later when the input-inhibited condition is removed.

  4. Auto start session with Full-screen

    An additional HTML parameter is provided to automatically start the HOD Hex Client sessions in Full-screen.

    Name: startWithFullScreen

    Value: Boolean value (true/false)

    The administrator configures the parameter in the ‘Advanced options’ panel in the HOD Deployment wizard. By default, the session launches in minimized mode if the parameter is not configured or set to false. This parameter will be listed under HTML Parameter overrides and included in the Import/Export of JSON file already available on the dashboard page.
