Administrators can set the refresh interval as a global value for all the clients in “config.properties” by using the parameter clientRefreshInterval. Any numeric value can be given to this parameter without any upper limit.

• Path for config.properties file is the HOD publish directory.
• For example, clientRefreshInterval = 10.
• If the parameter is set by the admin, then the refresh interval dropdown is disabled with the assigned value and theuser cannot modify the refresh interval at the client side.
• If the parameter is not set by the admin, then a default value of 5 is set and the user can change the interval from 2 through 5 seconds.

Improved Performance and client refresh interval

Reduced download content size & screen traversal time, thereby, also resulting in improved performance while traversing across screens.

• Enhanced Non-Programmable Terminal User Interface (ENPTUI) enables an enhanced interface on non-programmable terminals (NPT) and programmable workstations (PWS) over the 5250 screen, taking advantage of 5250 display data stream extensions.
• HOD Hex Client supports a subset of the ENPTUI feature, including graphical interface constructs.
• If the ENPTUI property is checked in the property panel, it will include standard ENPTUI rendering items and the component and widget registry.

Name: AltScreenSize

Value: rows x columns

Defines the number of rows and columns on the screen.

Applies to 3270 display session with screen size set to 62x160.

This parameter is to be listed under HTML Parameter.

Web-Based Terminal:

The Web-Based Terminal option provides an additional capability for the HOD Hex Client users to turn the traditional green screen into a modernized look and event handling as web-based applications. It will have some limitations as compared to the green screen. Kindly refer Limitation document.

Screen Timers:

In milliseconds, the nominal amount of time waits while analyzing outbound data using screen-settling strategies.

In the admin console module, users can customize screen timers.

1. Minimum time to wait for the screen to settle: This value is the minimum screen-to-screen delay. A higher value increases the reliability of screen transformations in case of delays at the host due to long processing times or network delays. The default value is 2000 milliseconds.
2. Maximum time to wait for the screen to settle: The minimum amount of time taken from the time communications are initiated with the host until trying to recognize an initial screen. This value can be decreased for fast networks to improve initial screen response time. The default value is 1200 milliseconds.
