Narrow Band Radio Parameters
116 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Callsign String
This string can be a maximum of 10 characters long. All characters are either
numbers or letters. The prefix “DE” (from) is added to the beginning of the transmit-
ted call sign.
RADIO PARAMETERS
Sync Delay
Important: This parameter should not be changed from its factory setting
without a clear understanding of the timing of the radio protocol.
Sync Delay specifies the delay between the time of the base station transmission and
the first response window, measured in character times. The value assigned to this
parameter must be compatible with other base stations and terminals in the system.
The TRX7370 radio is available in either two level or four level modulation, provid-
ing baud rates of 4800 bps and 9600 bps, or 9600 bps and 19200 bps, respectively.
The default setting for a two level modulation narrow band radio, operating at 9600
baud, is 23.
The default setting for a four level modulation narrow band radio, operating at
19200 baud, is 31.
Remote Txon
Remote Txon accommodates the turn on time of the radio in terminals (remotes). It
specifies the number of fill characters sent to the radio before real data is output.
Since this parameter is based on character times, the number is dependent on the
radio link baud rate.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 117
Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
Narrow Band Radio Parameters
The value assigned to the Remote Txon parameter must be consistent across all
terminals and base station equipment. The allowable value range is 3 to 60.
Important: This parameter should not be changed from its factory setting
without an understanding of the timing of the radio protocol.
Active Channel
This parameter determines the operating radio channel of the 9150. This makes
the channel available for channel searching by the terminals. The channel selected
must be one of those that have been configured with frequencies, as indicated on the
TRX7370 Radio Card Parameters page. See page 110 for the list of associated chan-
nels and frequencies.
5.2.2.4 Connectivity Options: RRM Mode
When you enter the Connectivity Options sub-menu for the 9150 set in RRM operat-
ing mode, the 9150 displays the RRM parameters.
Port
This parameter allows you to enter the port number of the 9150. The port number
can range from 1024 to 32767.
Important: The port number entered here must match the port number entered
for this 9150 in the network controller’s RRM configuration.

5.3 Base Station Configuration Menu Options
The 9150 Wireless Gateway can operate as a base station or remote radio module
(RRM), facilitating the communications between terminals and wireless base sta-
tions and a network controller (Teklogix 9400 Network Controller or 9150 Wireless
Gateway), using a range of host platforms. Alternatively, the network controller can
be a host running a Teklogix SDK (handler). The 9150 can also act as a slave base
station to a 9150 on the network.
5.3.1 Base Stations
Base stations communicate over the radio link using Psion Teklogix proprietary
protocols. They can optionally carry IP data over these protocols. Base stations can
be connected to network controllers using TCP/IP over Ethernet networks. As a base
station communicating with terminals through a radio link, the 9150 uses the
Wireless LAN (Wlan) or Adaptive Polling/Contention RF protocols (see page 7 for
details on the protocols). The 9150 controls the radio link’s operation and timing.
Each base station uses a different radio channel, and terminals use cellular switching
to roam between stations.
The options and parameters on the following pages allow you to configure the 9150
as a master base station connected to up to 32 slave 9150 base stations over an
Ethernet network. The master 9150 is connected to a 9400 Network Controller, or
up to six hosts running TSDK (Teklogix Software Development Kit). From the Base
Stations option under Base Station Configuration (see Figure 5.2 on page 101),
entering “Configure” will open the “Configure New Base Station” page, which will
enable you to add a new slave base station to the system or change the parameters on
an existing slave base station.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 119
Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
Base Stations
Name
The name entered in this parameter is used as an alternate way of identifying the
IP address of a slave base station.
IP Address
This parameter provides the corresponding IP address for the slave base station.
The IP Address must be a unique value so that each slave base station can be iden-
tified on the network.
The acceptable value ranges from 0.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
The default value for the IP port is 16100.
Protocol
IAC/EOR (TCP/IP) is the default protocol for the Ethernet connection.
Message Size
Message Size determines the largest single message that can be passed to a
terminal. The range of this parameter is between 32 and 380 characters. (Longer
messages are broken into several packets.)
For polling protocol base stations, the upper limit is 116.
Auto-Startup
When this parameter is enabled ( ), the slave base stations will start polling when
the master 9150 boots up. When Auto-Startup is disabled, the base stations will not
start polling until they receive a start polling command from the host.

RRM Groups
120 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
5.3.2 RRM Groups
While the 9150 can operate as a Remote Radio Module (RRM, see “Connectivity
Options: RRM Mode” on page 117), it can also control other RRMs. For a 9150 to
control RRMs, RRM groups must be configured. Once an RRM group has been
defined, from one to four RRMs can be members of a group (see “RRM Group
Menu” on page 126).
All RRMs in a group operate on the same radio channel. The 9150 coordinates the
transmissions of all the RRMs in a group (for this reason, the controlling 9150 is
sometimes referred to as the “Timeplexing Master”).
5.3.2.1 Configure New RRM Group
In this screen, shown on the next page, the user can set options for a new RRM
group. Each RRM must be a member of an RRM group; there may be more than one
RRM group configured in the 9150. An RRM group may contain from one to
four RRMs.
This screen is very similar to the one in “Connectivity Options: Base Station Mode”
on page 112, the difference being that the parameters configured in those radio
menus apply to the TRX7370 radio resident in the 9150, while the parameters con-
figured here apply to the other, remote 9150s (the RRMs).

122 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Communication Protocol
This listbox allows you to select the protocol to be used for the connection to this
RRM group. The default is the TCP/IP protocol.
Enabled
The Enabled option must be turned on ( ) for the 9150 to function as an RRM
group controller. If this option is disabled, the 9150 automatically goes into base
station mode.
Auto-Startup
When this parameter is enabled ( ), the 9150 establishes communication with the
RRMs in this RRM group when it boots, and starts polling automatically.
When Auto-Startup is disabled, the 9150 establishes communication with the
RRMs in this group when it boots, but does not start polling in this RRM group until
a start polling command is received from the host.
Polling starts if at least one of the RRMs in the RRM group is operating when the
9150 boots.
Shared Channel
If this parameter is enabled ( ), the 9150 checks for other traffic on the radio
channel used by this RRM group, before polling.
If this parameter is disabled, the 9150 assumes that it has exclusive use of the radio
channel for this RRM group, and polls without checking for radio traffic.
This parameter is required for systems installed in the Netherlands.
POLLING PROTOCOL PARAMETERS
Warning: These parameters are pre-configured for your system, and should
not be changed without a proper understanding of how they affect
the radio link.

RRM Groups
Number of Poll Windows
This textbox allows the user to specify the number of poll windows in which the
RRM listens for terminal responses after sending a poll. The allowable values range
from 2 to 4. The default value is 3.
Size of Poll Windows
This textbox allows the user to specify the size of the poll windows in which the
RRMs of this RRM group listen for terminal replies. The allowable values range
from 5 to 32. The default value is 8.
Maximum Message Segment Size
This textbox allows the user to specify the size of the largest message segment, in
bytes, that will be sent over the Teklogix radio network. Larger messages are broken
into parts. The allowable values range from 32 to 116. The default value is 100.
Number of Retries
This textbox allows the user to specify the number of times the RRM retransmits a
message to a terminal, after receiving no acknowledgement from the terminal,
before it declares the terminal offline. The allowable values range from 1 to 7. The
default value is 3.
Collision Size
This textbox allows the user to specify the smallest number of characters of noise
received by the RRM, that will be interpreted as interfering transmissions from
Teklogix equipment. When this threshold is exceeded, the RRM starts collision
resolution. The allowable values range from 3 to 10. The default value is 6.
Free Window Factor
This textbox allows the user to specify the probability that the RRM will include a
free window in its poll, during which any terminal may transmit. The allowable
values range from 0 to 7. The default value is 0.
Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
RRM Groups
124 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Message Mode Limit
This textbox allows the user to specify the probability of including a message-mode
poll in its poll transmission. The allowable values range from 3 to 7. The default
value is 4.
Callsign Period
This textbox allows the user to specify the amount of time between transmissions of
the callsign. This parameter is in minutes. A value of 0 (zero) indicates that no call-
sign is transmitted. The allowable values range from 0 to 60. The default value is 0.
Callsign String
This textbox allows the user to specify the text to be transmitted as the RRM’s call-
sign. The text is transmitted as Morse code. The default value is Teklogix.
RADIO PARAMETERS
Because some of the radio parameters are identical for a given group of timeplexed
RRMs, they may be configured by the user once on the 9150; the 9150 then passes
them to the RRMs in the group. These parameters include the synchronization delay
(Sync Delay), the remote transmit on-time (Remote Txon), and the channel number
to be used (Active Channel).
Although the TRX7370 narrow band radio in each RRM in the group is configured
separately, the 9150 assumes they will be configured identically. To ensure this, the
9150 looks at certain parameters returned by each of the RRMs. These parameters
include the radio baud rate and the transmit-on time.
These parameters are compared against the values returned by other RRMs within
the same group. Error messages are displayed should these values not match, but the
worst case value is chosen for use.
Warning: These parameters are pre-configured for your system, and should
not be changed without a proper understanding of how they affect
the radio link.
Sync Delay
This textbox allows the user to specify the number of delay characters inserted
between the RRM’s transmission and the first response window. The allowable
values range from 3 to 45. The default value is 28.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 125
Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
RRM Groups
Remote Txon
This textbox allows the user to specify the number of fill characters sent by the ter-
minal radios before the terminals send message data. The allowable values range
from 3 to 32. The default value is 13.
Active Channel
This textbox allows the user to specify the radio channel to be used by all the RRMs
in the RRM group. The allowable values range from 1 to 20. The default value is 1.
GROUP PARAMETERS
Combination
These textboxes allow the user to specify RRM subgroups called combinations.
If the coverage areas of two or more of the RRMs in this RRM group do not overlap,
the non-overlapping RRMs may poll at the same time. This improves system
response time and reduces the amount of signalling on the network.
As an example, if the RRM group has 3 RRMs, and RRMs 1 and 3 don't overlap,
RRMs 1 and 3 may be placed in one subgroup (Combination 1). They will then poll
simultaneously. RRM 2 may be placed in another subgroup (Combination 2).
Polling alternates between the two subgroups.
To configure a combination, place the numbers of the RRMs in the textbox for that
combination. The numbers correspond to the numbers of the RRMs named in the
RRM list on the RRM Group Menu (see page 126). For instance, “13” in the textbox
for Combination 1 places RRMs 1 and 3 in that subgroup.
Note: When configuring RRM combinations, make sure the configured RRMs are
sequential, and are not missing numbers, which can happen when RRMs
are deleted and added. The combinations use the RRMs in the order that
they appear in the list, not how they are numbered in the list.
RRMs that are not assigned to combinations poll individually, after the combina-
tions poll.

From the Radio Link Features option under Base Station Configuration (see Figure
5.2 on page 101), entering “Configure” will open the “Radio Link Features” page
for the polling and cellular parameters.
Operate in Cellular Mode
To operate as a Wlan base station, this parameter should be enabled ( ). For further
information see “Wlan Protocol” on page 11.
Note: The 9400 Network Controller must also be set to cellular mode.
Automatic Radio Address Assignment Range
Each Teklogix terminal using the radio link has a unique radio address number,
which can be assigned automatically by the 9150 by enabling this parameter.
Currently this feature is only supported through the 802.IQ protocol (for informa-
tion on 802.IQ configuration, see pages 64 and 192).
To enable this parameter, the values for the first and last radio address numbers
must lie between 1 and 3840. The default values for the range are 1024 ... 2084.
To disable the parameter, set the values to 0.
Notes: When enabling this parameter:
1. Direct TCP Connections for TekTerm must be disabled (see page 130).
2. The Auto ID parameter in the terminal must be enabled in order for
the radio address to be automatically assigned.

3. Do not enable Auto Startup (see page 65) on any of the 9150 base sta-
tions running 802.IQ with sessions using Automatic Radio Address
Assignment Range and Automatic Terminal Number Assignment
Range.
Automatic Terminal Number Assignment Range
A terminal number is assigned for every TESS and ANSI application session
created in a terminal. This number defines the terminal number for each session and
uniquely identifies all transmissions to and from that session.
To enable this parameter, the values for the first and last terminal numbers must lie
between 1 and 3840. The default values for the range are 0 ... 0. To disable the
parameter, set the values to default.
Notes: When enabling this parameter:
1. Direct TCP Connections for TekTerm must be disabled (see page 130).
2. The Auto Session parameter in the terminal must be enabled in order
for the terminal session number to be automatically assigned.
3. Do not enable Auto Startup (see page 65) on any of the 9150 base sta-
tions running 802.IQ with sessions using Automatic Radio Address
Assignment Range and Automatic Terminal Number Assignment
Range.
Poll ID
In Wlan protocol, this is a unique identifying number set only in a 9150 master base
station, 9150 mini-controller or a network controller, which is used in the poll
header when polling terminals. Poll ID is set by Psion Teklogix personnel.
In Adaptive Polling/Contention protocol for narrow band radios, Poll ID is used to
assign a unique address to each base station. As the terminals move from one base
station to another, this address is transmitted by the base stations to the terminals,
identifying each 9150 in a multiple base station system.

130 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Polling Protocol Terminal Timeout
This parameter determines the time in minutes that a terminal can be inactive before
the 9150 declares it offline. Before this happens, the terminal will be declared
offline by the Percent Polling Protocol Terminal Timeout parameter (see below).
After the terminal is removed from the system, it will need to re-initialize in order to
communicate with the 9150. This parameter reduces the overhead on the radio link
caused when terminals which are not communicating are supported.
The allowable values range from 1 to 240.
Note: This parameter is not relevant for Wlan.
Percent Polling Protocol Terminal Timeout
This parameter determines the time that a terminal is allowed to be inactive before
the 9150 declares it offline. This time is expressed as a percentage of the Polling
Protocol Terminal Timeout parameter (see above). For example, if the Polling Proto-
col Terminal Timeout is 60, and this parameter is set to 75%, then the timeout would
be 60 min x 75% = 45 minutes.
An offline terminal is still considered part of the system. Messages to offline termi-
nals are queued at the 9150. The terminal remains offline until it transmits an online
message.
Values for this parameter range from 50 to 90.
Direct TCP Connections for TekTerm
Enabling this parameter allows the TekTerm program resident in Teklogix
terminals to connect directly to the 9150, when it is acting as a base station to
a host via TCP/IP.

Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 133
Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
Hosts Menu
The supported emulations with their respective protocols are:
9010/ TCP/IP (See page 135 for configuration parameters).
3274/Telnet (See pages 149 to 164 for Configuration Parameters).
5250/Telnet (See pages 165 to 179 for Configuration Parameters).
ANSI/Telnet (See pages 180 to 190 for Configuration Parameters).
RF Modem (See page 191 for Configuration Parameters).
When the 9150 functions as a base station, it communicates with a 9010/ TCP/IP
host. The 9010 protocol is a proprietary asynchronous protocol developed by Psion
Teklogix which uses TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem) or ANSI data streams to
communicate with terminals. For detailed information, please refer to the appropriate
Teklogix User Manual for: 9400 Network Controller, TSDK, TESS or ANSI.
However, when the 9150 acts as a mini-controller, it uses the 3274 and 5250 emula-
tion protocols to communicate with IBM hosts, or the ANSI emulation protocol to
communicate with ANSI hosts. For detailed information on configuring the 9150 as
a mini-controller, please refer to Chapter 6: “Mini-Controller Configuration”.
Terminal Range
The values entered in this parameter designate the first and last terminals in the

Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
Overview
6.1 Overview
The network controller in a Teklogix system performs a number of important tasks.
One of these tasks is emulation: the translation of data between the protocol of the
host computer and the protocol used by Teklogix terminals.
The data which is sent from a host computer to a terminal to provide its display, and
returned to the host as a result of operations at the terminal, is called a data stream.
Host computers can provide data streams of various types to their terminals.
Teklogix terminals can directly accept only two types of data stream: TESS and
ANSI. TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem) is the proprietary data stream used by
Teklogix terminals. ANSI data streams are a standard type of data stream used by
wired ANSI terminals. Other types of data stream provided by the host must be
converted into TESS or ANSI before Teklogix terminals can work with them. This
translation is done by emulation software in a network controller.
The 9150 is equipped with emulation capabilities, allowing it to act as a mini-
controller. When a 9150 is configured as a mini-controller, Teklogix terminals can
emulate an ANSI, 5250 or 3274 terminal via a 9150 rather than through a 9400
Network Controller. Using the RF Modem/Telnet emulation, the 9150 can also
communicate with a Teklogix 6040 RF Modem.
Important: 9150s acting as mini-controllers are designed for small, low-
transaction sites. A 9400 Network Controller is required for
systems that support more than 50 terminals.
Acting as a mini-controller, the 9150 can support up to 32 additional networked base
stations and up to 50 terminals. A 9150 mini-controller can also manage wireless
LAN configurations.
A 9150 configured as a mini-controller can support the following emulations:
5250 emulation using TCP/IP over an Ethernet LAN.
3274 emulation using TCP/IP over an Ethernet LAN.
ANSI emulation using TCP/IP over an Ethernet LAN.
RF Modem emulation using TCP/IP over an Ethernet LAN.
Note: The 9150 main parameters should first be set up as described in Chapter 3:
“9150 Main Configuration”.
The 9150 can also be integrated into a mapRF system, using 802.IQv2 protocol (for
details, please refer to the “802.IQ V2 Features Menu” on page192).

Hosts Menu
Emulation and Protocol
This drop-down menu provides a list of host emulations and communication proto-
cols supported by the 9150. Working with Teklogix terminals and base stations, the
9150 can emulate IBM 3278-2, 5251-11, and 5555-B01 terminals, as well as ANSI
terminals and RF Modems.
Protocols are the methods by which terminals communicate with host computers
over various media such as Ethernet and radio-link connections. The 9150 supports
the TCP/IP protocol. The supported emulations with their respective protocols are:
9010/ TCP/IP (See page 149 for Configuration Parameters).
3274/Telnet (See pages 149 to 164 for Configuration Parameters).
5250/Telnet (See pages 165 to 179 for Configuration Parameters).
ANSI/Telnet (See pages 180 to 190 for Configuration Parameters).
RF Modem/Telnet (See page 191 for Configuration Parameters).
When the 9150 acts as a base station, it uses the 9010 emulation (a proprietary
asynchronous protocol developed by Psion Teklogix) to communicate with a 9400
Network Controller or a host using a Teklogix Software Development Kit (TSDK).
For detailed information on configuring the 9150 as a base station, please refer to
Chapter 5: “Base Station Configuration”.
When the 9150 acts as a mini-controller, it uses the 3274 and 5250 emulation
protocols to communicate with IBM hosts, or the ANSI emulation protocol to com-
municate with ANSI terminals. To communicate with a Teklogix 6040 RF Modem,
the 9150 uses the RF Modem/Telnet emulation protocol.
Terminal Range
The values entered in this parameter designate the first and last terminals in the
range of terminals that will communicate with the host. These terminal numbers are
mapped to this particular host. Terminal numbers may range from 1 to 50.

version of that page.
With IBM 3274, or IBM 5250 emulation, the 9150 mini-controller converts the
application data stream from the host to TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem)
commands. Some of the parameters in this page govern the conversion of the host
screens to TESS.

Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
Is Host Fujitsu
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 mini-controller expects the data from the host
to contain commands, etc., native to a Fujitsu host. Enabling this parameter causes
the standard IBM formatting codes (for start of field, setting buffers, etc.) to be
replaced by the codes used by Fujitsu host computers.
Use International EBCDIC
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 mini-controller uses the International
EBCDIC character set, swapping the positions of the ! and ] characters.
Alarm
When this parameter is enabled, terminals beep when the word ALARM” appears
on the application screen in the location specified by the Command Region parame-
ter (see page 160). The word “ALARM” should be a display-only field.
Note: The Command Region parameter must be enabled for this
parameter to work.
Clear
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 mini-controller creates an empty entry field
for an entry field that is filled with spaces.
Some host applications rely on the video attributes of displayed characters to high-
light fields, particularly entry fields. For example, the application screen may define
all entry fields with reverse video and fill the field with spaces. This is effective on
terminals that support reverse video, but on terminals that do not, it can make the
field invisible since it is made up entirely of spaces.
By default, all empty entry fields displayed at the Teklogix terminal are highlighted
by the “entry character” chosen in the terminal’s configuration (not all Teklogix ter-
minals support video attributes).
Note: This operation is only performed on screens received from the host. Data
sent to the host remains unaffected.
Passthru
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 allows the host to send data directly to the RF
terminal’s serial port. This is most commonly used for printing.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
152 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Preparing Host Screens for Pass-Through
On the screen to be sent through the terminal serial port, the word PASSTHRU (in
capital letters) must appear on the first line, starting on the second column. The
actual data to be sent to the terminal may start anywhere below the first line.
With 5250 or 3274 emulations, attributes occupy a position in the screen buffer. An
attribute placed between column 2 and the end of the word “PASSTHRU” will
‘push’ all following characters one position to the right. Therefore, any required
attributes should occupy column 1 of the first line (just preceding the word
“PASSTHRU”).
Example:
where @ is an attribute.
When the 9150 is finished sending the data to the terminal’s printer, it will send an
ENTER key to the host. The host must wait for the ENTER key before sending any
more screens (including other PASSTHRU screens) to this terminal.
Note: Refer to the Terminals User Manual for information about setting
parameters on the terminal for pass-through.
Procedures
If this parameter is enabled, the host may send TESS procedures through the 9150
to the terminals. A TESS procedure is a group of TESS commands that can be exe-
cuted by the TESS execute procedure command.
Local
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 allows the host to provide pages to be loaded
as local TESS procedures in the terminals.
The local procedures are selected from a menu at the terminal. The terminals can
perform these procedures when they are offline. Later when the terminals are online,
they send the results of these functions to the host.

Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
Note: The Procedures parameter must also be enabled for Local to work.
Host Print
When this parameter is enabled, the host can send extra data to the terminal’s
screens, and instruct the terminal to print it. This is in contrast to the Local Print fea-
ture, where the terminal makes the initial print request.
The text that is passed to the printer is formatted into the 24 x 80 application screen.
If the host can initiate the print operation, the text is printed. The 9150 identifies the
additional text as a print page by the presence of the word “PRINT” (in capital let-
ters) beginning in the 2nd column of line 13 on the 24 x 80 screen. The word
“PRINT” should be defined as display-only text.
The print page is positioned below the terminal’s display page (see the following
figure). The size of the print page is always the same as the terminal’s display page
(assuming that in the terminal’s configuration, the page length is less than 12 lines).
When Host Print is enabled, the 9150 passes the print page to the terminal after
receiving the application screen from the host.

Notes:
1. Unlike the Passthru option, when using Host Print no escape
commands can be sent to the printer.
2. Support for printing must be enabled at the terminal in its Printer
command under the TESS Features menu; refer to the appropriate
Terminals User Manual for more information.
Remote Print
When this parameter is enabled, the 9150 sends the print page to a terminal when-
ever the terminal requests it (by sending the “F17” function key from the terminal,
or the “PRINT” key on older terminals). The 9150 sends the function response back
to the host.
This is in contrast to Host Print, where the host makes the initial print request.
Note: Support for printing must be enabled at the terminal. Refer to the
Terminals User Manual or the Parameter Guide for more information.
Pages
This parameter determines the number of host screens (or pages) stored at
the terminal, to a maximum of 16.
The 9150 reduces data transmitted to the terminals by using the terminal’s capability
to store a page of data for each screen it displays. The 9150 maintains an image of
each page stored at the terminal. After receiving an application screen, the 9150 tries
to match the screen with a stored page. If a similar page is already in the terminal’s
memory, the 9150 instructs the terminal to redisplay its copy of the page; only the
necessary changes are sent from the controller. If no match is found, the complete
page is sent to the terminal over the radio link.
Note: There is a corresponding parameter on the terminal itself, and the actual
number of saved pages will be the smaller of the two values.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 155
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
Transmit Line
When this feature is enabled, all modified data at the terminal is automatically
transmitted when the operator enters data into a transmit-upon-entry field.
The value in this textbox specifies the line on the screen which is designated the
transmit line. The last entry field above or on the transmit line on the screen will be
identified as the transmit-upon-entry field. If any entry fields exist on lines below
the transmit line, no entry field will be designated as the transmit-upon-entry field.
A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature. A value of 24 designates the last entry field
on each application screen as transmit-upon-entry.
AIAG
This parameter provides auto-locate and fill for input coming from bar code readers.
When bar code data is entered at a terminal, the terminal searches for “AIAG” fields
on the current page that can accept the bar code data. The data preloaded into the
AIAG” field by the application program determines whether or not the bar code
data is accepted.
At the 9150 mini-controller, a decimal value of an ASCII character from 0 to 127
is set to match the “AIAG Field Identifier” set at the host. A value of 0 disables
this feature.
The format of the preloaded data is as follows:
<mode> <AIAG prefix(data)>
The mode character used with the command allows for different operating modes to
suit various application operations. The automatic locate and fill operation applies
only to data received from a bar code reader. Descriptions of the modes and AIAG
prefix are listed in Table 6.1 on page 156. These modes are set at the host.

When the information arrives at the terminal screen, the appropriate AIAG field for
the scanned information is located using the “AIAG Identifier”. Because Mode 0
was set at the host, the “AIAG Prefix” – I – is displayed on the terminal screen, and
when this screen is completed, the prefix will be sent back to the host.

Visible Match Character
By inserting a special ASCII character directly before an entry field, the application
program distinguishes a “match field” from an entry field. For example, suppose an
angle bracket “>” is defined for visible match fields. Inserting “>” immediately
preceding the entry field identifies it as a match field, as illustrated below.
Part #> ___________
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of
ASCII characters. A value of 0 disables this feature. The ASCII decimal value
entered at the 9150 must coincide with the value set by the application program.
To use the Visible Match feature, the host computer preloads data into a match
entry field; the data is visible on the terminal screen. The preloaded data sent to a
terminal can consist of exact characters, special match characters or a combination
of the two. Refer to Table 6.2 on page 158 for match characters recognized by
Teklogix terminals.
If an entry does not match the preloaded data, the entry is displayed, the terminal
beeps, and the cursor moves to the first position in the match field. The operator can
either make another entry in the match field, or move the cursor to a new field.

When an entry (even one that doesn’t match the preloaded data) is made in a match
field, the entry is sent to the host as part of the terminal’s modified data during the
next transmission.
Table 6.2 Match Characters
Example:
Suppose you want to preload an entry field with a part number. If the part number is
known, you can preload the field with that part number. If more flexibility is needed,
and the part number always begins with two alphabetic characters followed by a
hyphen and four digits, the match string for the field would be: &&–#### .
Hidden Match Character
Unlike data in a “visible match” field, the preloaded data in a “hidden match” field
is not displayed at the terminal.
Note: Refer to “Visible Match Character” on page 157 for detailed information
about field matching.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 disables this feature. The ASCII decimal value entered at
the 9150 must coincide with the value set by the application program.

Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
Serial I/O
Serial I/O fields are special entry and fixed fields that accept input from and output
to a serial port. The application program distinguishes this field as Serial I/O by pre-
ceding the field with a special character.
If this character precedes a fixed field, the data will be sent to the terminal’s serial
port. If it precedes an entry field, the field accepts data from the terminal’s
serial port.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature.
Print Line
This parameter allows you to enter the starting line number of the print page in the
application screen. A value of 1 causes the display page to be printed; a value of 0
(zero) disables this feature.
Print Form Length
This parameter sets the printer’s form length in lines. The range is 0 to 24.
Barcode
Barcode-input-only fields are special entry fields that only accept input from a bar
code reader. The application program distinguishes an entry field as barcode-input-
only by preceding the field with a special character.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature.
Entry Line
This parameter contains the number of the first line displayed if there is no entry
field in the upper-left portion of the screen, and if an entry field is at or below
this line.
The Entry Line parameter allows an automatic offset within the host screen, so that
the area displayed by the terminal includes an entry field that would normally be out
of bounds. Normally, Teklogix terminals only display the upper-left corner of the
application screen because of their smaller display size.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
3274/Telnet
160 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Field Overhead
This parameter contains the maximum number of characters allowed between two
fixed fields which still allows the 9150 to join them into one field.
Sometimes the 9150 will join two adjacent fixed fields and then send them as one
field. This reduces the overhead on the radio link.
For example, if two fields were 4 characters apart and this parameter was ‘5’, then
these fields would be joined into one.
Command Region
This parameter defines a region of the host screen which the 9150 will examine for
the presence of reserved commands.
The four numbers in the Command Region textboxes represent the row and column
addresses of the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the command region.
The first textbox of each pair contains the row number; the second contains the
column number. The range of row values is 0 to 24; column values are 0 to 80.
To define the last two lines of the host screen as the command region, for example,
enter the values 23, 1 and 24, 80.
Currently, the only command supported is ALARM (refer to page 151 for details on
this command). When the word “ALARM” is placed anywhere within the command
region, the 9150 will send a TESS beep command to the terminal.

minimum of 1024. To disable the listen port, the value must be 0.
The default value is 0 (disabled).
Actively Negotiate with Host
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 starts negotiations with the host during setup
of the telnet connection. Not recommended for most hosts.
Send IAC Interrupt Process as a System Request
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 sends the IAC Interrupt Process request to the
host as a 3274 System Request.
Send IAC Break as an Attention Key
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 sends the IAC Break request to the host as a
3274 Attention key.
Auto-telnet
This parameter enables you to disable or enable automatic connection of telnet
sessions from terminals to this host.
The choices provided are: Disable and Auto-telnet. The default value is Disable.

When Auto-telnet is disabled, telnet sessions from the terminals to the host must be
initiated manually from the terminals.
When Auto-telnet is enabled, the 9150 initiates one telnet session from each termi-
nal whose terminal number is mapped to this host. Additional telnet sessions may be
initiated from each terminal to the host, but they must be initiated manually.
When Auto-telnet is enabled, the 9150 will automatically telnet to the host, both on
startup and when the session is closed.
Note: Auto-telnet sessions are only initiated for terminals which are “online”
(turned on and operating properly on the Teklogix RF network).
Auto-telnet Host
This parameter contains the host name or IP address for the host to which the 9150
connects Auto-telnet sessions.
Note: A host name placed in this textbox must be “resolvable” by the 9150:
the 9150 must be able to obtain an IP address for it. For example, the host
name may correspond to an entry in the 9150’s host table, or the 9150
may be able to query a domain-name server.

The 9150 displays this version of the Emulation Options page after you have
selected the 5250/Telnet emulation/protocol combination for this host connection.
With IBM 5250, or IBM 3274 emulation, the 9150 mini-controller converts the
application data stream from the host to TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem)
commands. Some of the parameters in this page govern the conversion of the host
screens to TESS.
Write Error Code
If advisory text is selected here, the 9150 sends error codes to the terminal screen as
advisory text, which is written at the bottom of the screen. If screen text is chosen,
the 9150 sends the error codes as regular screen text.
Use International EBCDIC
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 will swap the positions of the ! and ] charac-
ters in the EBCDIC character table.
Alarm
If this parameter is enabled, terminals will beep when the word “ALARM”
(in capital letters) appears on the application screen, in the location specified by the
Command Region parameter (see page 175). The word “ALARM” should be a
display-only field.
Note: The Command Region parameter must be enabled for this
parameter to work.
Clear
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 mini-controller creates an empty entry field
for an entry field that is filled with spaces.
Some host applications rely on the video attributes of displayed characters to high-
light fields, particularly entry fields. For example, the application screen may define
all entry fields with reverse video and fill the field with spaces. This is effective on
terminals that support reverse video, but on terminals that do not, it can make the
field invisible since it is made up entirely of spaces.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 167
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
By default, all empty entry fields displayed at the Teklogix terminal are highlighted
by the “entry character” chosen in the terminal’s configuration (not all Teklogix ter-
minals support video attributes). The Clear feature creates an empty entry field in
place of an entry field filled with spaces.
Note: This operation is only performed on screens received from the host. Data
sent to the host remains unaffected.
Passthru
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 allows the host to send data directly to the RF
terminal’s serial port. This is most commonly used for printing.
Preparing Host Screens for Pass-Through
On the screen to be sent through the terminal serial port, the word “PASSTHRU”
(in capital letters) must appear on the first line, starting on the second column. The
actual data to be sent to the terminal may start anywhere below the first line.
With 5250 or 3274 emulations, attributes occupy a position in the screen buffer. An
attribute placed between column 2 and the end of the word “PASSTHRU” will push
all following characters one position to the right. Therefore, any required attributes
should occupy column 1 of the first line (just preceding the word “PASSTHRU”).
Example:
where @ is an attribute.
When the 9150 is finished sending the data to the terminal’s printer, it will send an
“ENTER” key to the host. The host must wait for the “ENTER” key before sending
any more screens (including other “PASSTHRU” screens) to this terminal.
Note: Refer to the appropriate Terminals User Manual for information about
setting parameters on the terminal for pass-through.

Procedures
If this parameter is enabled, the host may send TESS procedures through the 9150
to the terminals. A TESS procedure is a group of TESS commands that can be exe-
cuted by the TESS execute procedure command.
Local
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 allows the host to provide pages to be loaded
as local TESS procedures in the terminals.
The local procedures are selected from a menu at the terminal. The terminals can
perform these procedures when they are offline. Later when the terminals are online,
they send the results of these functions to the host.
Note: The Procedures parameter must also be enabled for Local to work.
Host Print
When this parameter is enabled, the host can send extra data to the terminal’s
screens, and instruct the terminal to print it. This is in contrast to the Local Print fea-
ture, where the terminal makes the initial print request.
The text that is passed to the printer is formatted into the 24 x 80 application screen.
If the host can initiate the print operation, the text is printed. The 9150 identifies the
additional text as a print page by the presence of the word “PRINT” (in capital let-
ters) beginning in the 2nd column of line 13 on the 24 x 80 screen. The word
“PRINT” should be defined as display-only text.
The print page is positioned below the terminal’s display page (see Figure 6.6 on
page 169). The size of the print page is always the same as the terminal’s display
page (assuming that in the terminal’s configuration, the page length is less than 12
lines).
When Host Print is enabled, the 9150 passes the print page to the terminal after
receiving the application screen from the host.

5250/Telnet
Figure 6.6 Application Screen With Print Page
Notes:
1. Unlike the Passthru option, when using Host Print no escape com-
mands can be sent to the printer.
2. Support for printing must be enabled at the terminal in its Printer
command under the TESS Features menu; refer to the appropriate
Terminals User Manual for more information.
Remote Print
When this parameter is enabled, the 9150 sends the print page to a terminal when-
ever the terminal requests it (by sending the “F17” function key from the terminal,
or the “PRINT” key on older terminals). The 9150 sends the function response back
to the host.
This is in contrast to Host Print, where the host makes the initial print request.
Note: Support for printing must be enabled at the terminal level. Refer to the
appropriate Terminals User Manual for more information.

Pages
This parameter determines the number of host screens (or pages) stored at
the terminal, to a maximum of 16.
The 9150 reduces data transmitted to the terminals by using the terminal’s capability
to store a page of data for each screen it displays. The 9150 maintains an image of
each page stored at the terminal. After receiving an application screen, the 9150 tries
to match the screen with a stored page.
If a similar page is already in the terminal’s memory, the 9150 instructs the terminal
to re-display its copy of the page; only the necessary changes are sent from the con-
troller. If no match is found, the complete page is sent to the terminal over the
radio link.
Note: There is a corresponding parameter on the terminal itself, and the actual
number of saved pages will be the smaller of the two values.
Transmit Line
When this feature is enabled, all modified data at the terminal will be automatically
transmitted when the operator enters data into a transmit-upon-entry field.
The value in this textbox specifies the line on the screen which is designated the
transmit line. The last entry field above or on the transmit line on the screen will be
identified as the transmit-upon-entry field. If any entry fields exist on lines below
the transmit line, no entry field will be designated as the transmit-upon-entry field.
A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature. A value of 24 will cause the last entry field
on each application screen to be defined as transmit-upon-entry.
AIAG
This parameter provides auto-locate and fill for input coming from bar code readers.
When bar code data is entered at a terminal, the terminal searches for “AIAG” fields
on the current page that can accept the bar code data. The data preloaded into the
AIAG” field by the application program determines whether or not the bar code
data is accepted.
At the 9150 mini-controller, a decimal value of an ASCII character from 0 to 127
is set to match the “AIAG Field Identifier” set at the host. A value of 0 disables
this feature.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 171
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
The format of the preloaded data is as follows:
<mode> <AIAG prefix(data)>
The mode character used with the command allows for different operating modes to
suit various application operations. The automatic locate and fill operation applies
only to data received from a bar code reader. Descriptions of the modes and AIAG
prefix are listed in the table below. These modes are set at the host.
Table 6.3 Mode Functions And AIAG Prefix Description
Mode Function
0Display prefix, send prefix to host.
1Do not display prefix, send prefix to host.
2Display prefix, do not send prefix to host.
3Do not display prefix, do not send prefix to host.
+4 Add 4 to above values to cause transmit to host when all AIAG fields with 4
set are filled. Function 0 is “pressed” if there are any fields
with this bit set, and all fields with this bit set have been filled by
operator input.
+8 Add 8 to above values to allow overwrite of previously entered data.
+16 Add 16 to above values to indicate cursor position priority for search and fill.
AIAG Prefix
(data) The text to be matched in the AIAG field.

Example:
The information in the sample screen below is defined at and sent from the host. It
includes the “AIAG Identifier” – the tag identifying this as an AIAG field – followed
by the mode, in this case Mode 0, and finally, the “AIAG Prefix” – I.
Figure 6.7 AIAG Field Sent From The Host
When the information arrives at the terminal screen, the appropriate AIAG field for
the scanned information is located using the “AIAG Identifier”. Because Mode 0
was set at the host, the “AIAG Prefix” – I – is displayed on the terminal screen, and
when this screen is completed, the prefix will be sent back to the host.
Figure 6.8 AIAG Field Sent To The Terminal
Visible Match Character
By inserting a special ASCII character directly before an entry field, the application
program distinguishes a “match field” from an entry field. For example, suppose an
angle bracket “>” is defined for visible match fields. Inserting “>” immediately
preceding the entry field identifies it as a match field, as illustrated below.

The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of
ASCII characters. A value of 0 disables this feature. The ASCII decimal value
entered at the 9150 must coincide with the value set by the application program.
To use the Visible Match feature, the host computer preloads data into a match
entry field; the data is visible on the terminal screen. The preloaded data sent to a
terminal can consist of exact characters, special match characters or a combination
of the two. Refer to the table below for match characters recognized by
Teklogix terminals.
If an entry does not match the preloaded data, the entry is displayed, the terminal
beeps, and the cursor moves to the first position in the match field. The operator can
either make another entry in the match field, or move the cursor to a new field.
When an entry (even one that doesn’t match the preloaded data) is made in a match
field, the entry is sent to the host as part of the terminal’s modified data during the
next transmission.
Table 6.4 Match Characters
Character Description
#Match a number.
&Match a letter (either case).
^Match an uppercase letter.
_Match a lowercase letter.
|Match an alphanumeric character.
"Match a letter, number or space.
?Match a punctuation character.
'Match any character.
:Match all character positions in the field with the preceding character.
;Match any remaining characters, but not necessarily the remainder of the field,
with the preceding character.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
174 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Example:
Suppose you want to preload an entry field with a part number. If the part number is
known, you can preload the field with that part number. If more flexibility is needed,
and the part number always begins with two alphabetic characters followed by a
hyphen and four digits, the match string for the field would be: &&–#### .
Hidden Match Character
Unlike data in a “visible match” field, the preloaded data in a “hidden match” field
is not displayed at the terminal.
Note: Refer to “Visible Match Character” on page 172 for detailed information
about field matching.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 disables this feature. The ASCII decimal value entered at
the 9150 must coincide with the value set by the application program.
Serial I/O
Serial I/O fields are special entry and fixed fields that accept input from and output
to a serial port. The application program distinguishes this field as Serial I/O by pre-
ceding the field with a special character.
If this character precedes a fixed field, the data will be sent to the terminal’s serial
port. If it precedes an entry field, the field accepts data from the terminal’s
serial port.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature.
Print Line
This parameter allows you to enter the starting line number of the print page in the
application screen. A value of 1 causes the display page to be printed; a value of 0
(zero) disables this feature.
Print Form Length
This parameter sets the printer’s form length in lines. The range is 0 to 24.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 175
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
Barcode
Barcode-input-only fields are special entry fields that only accept input from a bar
code reader. The application program distinguishes an entry field as barcode-input-
only by preceding the field with a special character.
The range for this parameter 0 to 127 – represents the decimal values of ASCII
characters. A value of 0 (zero) disables this feature.
Entry Line
This parameter contains the number of the first line displayed if there is no entry
field in the upper-left portion of the screen, and if an entry field is at or below
this line.
The Entry Line parameter allows an automatic offset within the host screen, so that
the area displayed by the terminal includes an entry field that would normally be out
of bounds. Normally, Teklogix terminals only display the upper-left corner of the
application screen because of their smaller display size.
Field Overhead
This parameter contains the maximum number of characters allowed between two
fixed fields which still allows the 9150 to join them into one field.
Sometimes the 9150 will join two adjacent fixed fields and then send them as one
field. This reduces the overhead on the radio link.
For example, if two fields were 4 characters apart and this parameter was ‘5’, then
these fields would be joined into one.
Command Region
This parameter defines a region of the host screen which the 9150 will examine for
the presence of reserved commands.
The four numbers in the Command Region textboxes represent the row and column
addresses of the upper left corner and the lower right corner of the command region.
The first textbox of each pair contains the row number; the second contains the
column number. The range of row values is 0 to 24; column values are 0 to 80.
To define the last two lines of the host screen as the command region, for example,
enter the values 23, 1 and 24, 80.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration

176 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Currently, the only command supported is ALARM (refer to page 166 for details on
this command). When the word “ALARM” is placed anywhere within the command
region, the 9150 will send a TESS beep command to the terminal.
6.4.4.2 Protocol Options
This page differs depending on the type of emulation and protocol selected in the
General Host Options page (see page 148). The 9150 displays this version of the
Protocol Options page when you select the emulation/protocol combination of
5250/Telnet for this host.
Terminal Type
This parameter allows you to choose the type of terminal to be emulated by the 9150
for this host. At present there are two choices of terminal for 5250/Telnet:
the IBM 5251-11 and IBM 5555-B01.

Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
Host Port
This parameter allows you to enter a host port value for the selected 5250/Telnet host
connection. The default value is 23.
Maximum Sessions per Terminal
This parameter contains the maximum number of telnet sessions which are allowed
to originate from each terminal. The range is 0 to 127, with a default value of 4.
First Local Terminal Port
This parameter contains the local port number from which the first terminal will
connect on outbound telnet sessions. The default value is 0.
Local IP Address to Bind
This parameter contains the IP address of the network adaptor from which the first
terminal will connect on outbound telnet sessions.
First Terminal Listen Port
This parameter specifies the first port number at which the 9150 will listen for telnet
connection requests to the terminals. To enable this parameter, the value must be a
minimum of 1024. To disable the listen port, the value must be 0.
The default value is 0 (disabled).
Actively Negotiate with Host
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 starts negotiations with the host during setup
of the telnet connection. Not recommended for most hosts.
Negotiate Virtual Device Name with Host
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 negotiates with the host to obtain a virtual
device name for the telnet connection.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250/Telnet
178 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Virtual Device Name prefix
This parameter specifies a prefix for the automatically-generated virtual device
name. The device name on the host starts with the prefix, specifies the terminal (as a
number), and specifies a session number (as a letter). For example, if the virtual
device name prefix is TLX, the first session on terminal number 2 receives a virtual
device name of TLX0002A.
The prefix must use the SNA Type A character set, which includes uppercase letters
A-Z, numbers 0-9, and the special characters $, #, and @. Lowercase letters are
accepted and translated to uppercase characters. An SNA Type A character string
must not begin with a number.
Auto-telnet
This parameter enables you to disable or enable automatic connection of telnet
sessions from terminals to this host.
The choices provided are: Disable and Auto-telnet. The default value is Disable.
When Auto-telnet is disabled, telnet sessions from the terminals to the host must be
initiated manually from the terminals.
When Auto-telnet is enabled, the 9150 initiates one telnet session from each termi-
nal whose terminal number is mapped to this host. Additional telnet sessions may be
initiated from each terminal to the host, but they must be initiated manually.
When Auto-telnet is enabled, the 9150 will automatically telnet to the host, both on
startup and when the session is closed.
Note: Auto-telnet sessions are only initiated for terminals which are “online”
(turned on and operating properly on the Teklogix RF network).
Auto-telnet Host
This parameter contains the host name or IP address for the host to which the 9150
connects Auto-telnet sessions.
Note: A host name placed in this textbox must be “resolvable” by the 9150:
the 9150 must be able to obtain an IP address for it. For example, the host
name may correspond to an entry in the 9150’s host table, or the 9150
may be able to query a domain-name server. Any host name which can be
used at the terminal’s TCP> prompt may be used here.

when you select 5250 emulation for this host.
Function key n
The Function Key parameter allows you to select a code that will be sent to the host
when you press a function key on the terminal. Each function key may be chosen
from the same range of possible codes; however, each function key has a different
default code. The default values are shown on this page.

6.4.5.1 Emulation Options
The 9150 displays this version of the Emulation Options page after you have
selected the ANSI/Telnet emulation/protocol combination for this host connection.
Maximum Screen Size
The Maximum Screen Size allows you to set the maximum required screen size in
terminals, by rows and columns. This feature ensures the optimal use of memory
when using the page saving option (see “Page Saving” on page 182).
The range is a minimum setting of 24 x 80 to a maximum setting of 60 x 132.
The default setting is 24 x 80.
Host Timeout
The Host Timeout is the interval (in ticks, or 60ths of a second) between bursts of
data received from the host. The range is 0 to 255, with a default value of 15.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 181
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
ANSI/Telnet
If the 9150 does not receive any characters from the host after this timeout has
elapsed, it assumes that the host has finished sending data and is waiting for user
input (in other words, it assumes that a screen of data has been completed).
Important: The Page Saving parameter (page 182) must be enabled in order
to change the value in the Host Timeout parameter.
Escape Timeout
The Escape Timeout is the length of time (in ticks, or 60ths of a second) that the
9150 will hold an “ESC” received from the host, and consider the next received byte
to be part of an escape sequence. The range is 0 to 255, with a default value of 12.
When this timeout has elapsed, the host will have to send another “ESC” character
to start an escape sequence.
Note: This is especially important when an ESC is at the end of a data packet.
Threshold
The Threshold is the minimum number of bytes of update data for the terminal
screen which must be received from the host before the 9150 will store the screen as
a new “saved page”. The range is 0 to 999, with a default value of 200.
Important: The Page Saving parameter (page 182) must be enabled in order
to change the value in the Threshold parameter.
Echo
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 uses “Smart” Echo. This mode reduces the
amount of data sent to the terminal by decreasing the number of radio transmissions.
Ordinarily, when a character mode application is being used, each keystroke is sent
to the host in one transmission, and the character is echoed by the host in another
transmission. When “Smart” Echo is enabled, the 9150 will not send the host echo
to the terminals if it matches the data sent from the terminal. Thus, the number of
radio transmissions is reduced.
This mode also reduces or eliminates the delay between typing a character on the
keyboard and displaying the character echoed by the host. The maximum number of
characters waiting for echo is 25. Any additional characters will be sent to the host
but not displayed.
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
ANSI/Telnet
182 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
Notes:
1. This parameter also determines whether an ANSI parameter query is
sent to the terminal.
2. “Smart” Echo also needs to be enabled at the terminal (refer to the
appropriate Terminals User Manual).
Function Key Remapping
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 remaps the function keys for this host
connection as defined in the Function Key Remapping page (page 190).
Page Saving
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 uses page saving, reducing data
transmitted to the terminals.
The 9150 maintains an image of each page stored at the terminal. After receiving an
application screen, the 9150 tries to match the screen with a stored page. If the page
is already in the terminal, the 9150 instructs the terminal to redisplay its stored copy
of the page; no data need be sent across the radio link for that page. If the 9150 finds
no match for the page, the complete page is sent to the terminal.
The default value is enabled.
Notes: When page saving is enabled, the number of saved pages is that which is
set on the terminal. Refer to the appropriate Terminals User Manual
for details.
If using double byte character sets, such as Chinese or Korean, please refer
to the Page Saving Consider Double Byte Character parameter, below.
Page Saving Consider Double Byte Character
When using double byte character sets such as Chinese or Korean, Page Saving (see
above) will allow a double byte character to be partially overwritten, which can lead
to a single byte of unprintable screen data or a new unintended character made up of
two halves of different characters. Also, the terminal may shift data on the screen to
truncate the bad data.
Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual 183
Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
ANSI/Telnet
When Page Saving Consider Double Byte Character is enabled, Page Saving will
replace any orphaned double byte character half with a space to prevent modified
characters and truncated data from being displayed on the terminal.
The default value is disabled.
Note: This option should only be used when using double byte character sets.
RLE
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 uses run-length encoding (RLE) on the data it
sends across the radio link. RLE compresses repeated characters going from the host
to the terminal. If repeated characters are found in the data stream, the first one is
sent, followed by a short escape sequence (3 or 4 characters) which tells the terminal
how many times to repeat this character. In this way RLE compresses the data and
decreases the total amount of radio-link traffic.
Convert 7 to 8 Bits
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 converts 7-bit control sequences to their 8-bit
equivalents in ANSI data streams going to the terminals. This replaces two-charac-
ter escape sequences with a single equivalent character, compressing the data.
6.4.5.2 Protocol Options
This page differs depending on the type of emulation and protocol selected in the
General Host Options page. When you select the emulation/protocol combination of
ANSI/Telnet for this host the 9150 displays the version of the Protocol Options
screen shown on page 184.

Close Host Sessions on Terminal Reset
When this parameter is enabled, and a terminal reset message is received, the Host
session for that terminal number will be closed. The default value is disabled.
First Local Terminal Port
This parameter specifies the port number from which the 9150 attempts a telnet con-
nection for the first terminal. The default value is 0.
Additional telnet sessions are assigned higher port numbers.
Local IP Address to Bind
This parameter specifies the IP address of the 9150 interface that connects to this
host. It is used along with the local port numbers to create a unique socket for each
terminal session.
First Terminal Listen Port
This parameter specifies the first port number at which the 9150 will listen for telnet
connection requests to the terminals. To enable this parameter, the value must be a
minimum of 1024. To disable the listen port, the value must be 0.
The default value is 0 (disabled).
TCP Session Request Key
This parameter contains the decimal ASCII character code of the character which
will prompt the terminal to request a new ANSI terminal session. The range is 0 to
255, with a default value of 1.

Auto-telnet/login Enable
This parameter enables you to disable or enable automatic connection of telnet ses-
sions from terminals to this host. The choices provided are: DISABLE; AUTO-
TELNET; AUTO-TELNET/LOGIN.
The default value is DISABLE.
When Auto-telnet is disabled, telnet sessions from the terminals to the host must be
initiated manually from the terminals.
When Auto-telnet is enabled, the 9150 initiates one telnet session from each termi-
nal whose terminal number is mapped to this host. Additional telnet sessions may be
initiated from each terminal to the host, but they must be initiated manually.
Note: Auto-telnet sessions are only initiated for terminals which are “online”
(turned on and operating properly on the Teklogix RF network).
When Auto-telnet and Auto-login are enabled, the 9150 initiates one telnet session
from each terminal whose terminal number is mapped to this host. It then logs each
session in to the host using the User ID and Password provided in this page.
Note: The User ID and Password is identical for all Auto-telnet sessions
automatically logged in to this host.

Auto-telnet Host
This parameter contains the host name or IP address for the host to which the 9150
connects Auto-telnet sessions.
Note: A host name placed in this textbox must be “resolvable” by the 9150:
the 9150 must be able to obtain an IP address for it. For example, the host
name may correspond to an entry in the 9150’s host table, or the 9150
may be able to query a domain-name server.
Any host name which can be used at the terminal’s TCP> prompt may be
used here.
Auto-telnet Terminal Prompt
This parameter contains the text presented to the user to request a login. The charac-
ters can be any ASCII string, or a numeric escape sequence presented in octal or
hexadecimal digits.
An octal escape sequence takes one of the forms: \0d, \0dd, or \0ddd, where each ‘d’
can be any digit from 0-7. If ‘ddd’ is greater than decimal 256, the code value of the
represented character will be the remainder of the decimal ddd/256.
A hexadecimal escape sequence takes one of the forms: \xh or xhh, where each ‘h’
can be any digit from 0-9, or any alpha value from a-f or A-F.
Note: \0 is considered a character, with a code value of 0.
The allowable value is a maximum of 60 characters in the line. The default is no
text, just press <ENTER> to login.
Auto-login User ID
This parameter contains the user ID presented by the 9150 to the host for the
Auto-login sessions. The characters can be any ASCII string acceptable to the host,
with a maximum of 32 characters.
Auto-login Password
This parameter contains the password presented by the 9150 to the host for the
Auto-login sessions. The characters can be any ASCII string acceptable to the host,
with a maximum of 32 characters.

Auto-login User ID prompt
The 9150 compares the text in this textbox to the text presented to it by the host.
When they match, the 9150 assumes that the host has just sent its request for a user
name, and it sends the user ID specified in the Auto-Login User ID parameter to the
host. The characters can be any ASCII string, with a maximum of 32 characters.
The default text is gin:.
Note: The match string should be as short as possible, yet long enough to
uniquely identify the user-ID prompt. Do not include multi-part words
separated by space characters, since some hosts send out characters
other than space characters to present a space on the screen.
Auto-login Password prompt
The 9150 compares the text in this textbox to the text presented to it by the host.
When they match, the 9150 assumes that the host has just sent its request for a pass-
word, and it sends the password specified in the Auto-Login Password parameter to
the host. The characters can be any ASCII string, with a maximum of 32 characters.
The default text is word:.
Note: The match string should be as short as possible, yet long enough to
uniquely identify the password prompt. Do not include multi-part words
separated by space characters, since some hosts send out characters
other than space characters to present a space on the screen.
Auto-login failed login
The 9150 compares the text in this textbox to the text presented to it by the host.
When they match, the 9150 assumes that the host has just sent a string informing the
terminal of a failed login attempt. The 9150 then presents the Auto-telnet Terminal
Prompt on the terminal’s screen to request the user to login manually. The characters
can be any ASCII string, with a maximum of 32 characters. The default text
is incorrect.
Note: The match string should be as short as possible, yet long enough to
uniquely identify the failed-login prompt. Do not include multi-part words
separated by space characters, since some hosts send out characters
other than space characters to present a space on the screen.

Allow TCP Sessions
When this parameter is enabled, the 9150 allows a terminal user to switch prompts
or sessions while at the prompt (either Auto-login or TCP). If Allow TCP Sessions is
disabled, all new sessions will open as Auto-login sessions.
Requesting sessions (normally <CTRL> a on the terminal) can be used at the
prompt level to change the type of prompt (if the other type of prompt is available).
Switching sessions at the prompt level is also available (on the terminal as
<CTRL> b [next session], or <CTRL> e [last session]). When switching sessions at
the prompt, the terminal state (not logged in) will be correctly adjusted to match that
of the switching in session.
The default value is enabled.

proprietary 802.11b enhanced protocol, as described in “Psion Teklogix’ 802.IQ
Protocol” on page9. For detailed configuration information on 802.IQv1, please
refer to “802.IQ Version 1 Configuration Menu” on page64.
6.5.1 802.IQ Version 2 Configuration
802.IQ is a Psion Teklogix proprietary optimized protocol that enables terminals to
operate on a wireless LAN in a network that supports both TCP/IP and 802.IQ pro-
tocol simultaneously. 802.IQ protocol is available in two versions: 802.IQv1 and
802.IQv2. The 9150 can support both versions of the protocol at the same time (ter-
minals must use only one).
802.IQv1 protocol is a wireless LAN protocol that provides greater performance in
an 802.11b wireless network than is possible with TCP/IP. The 9150 bridges the
802.IQv1 wireless and TCP/IP wired networks.
802.IQv2 protocol is an enhanced version of the 802.IQv1 protocol that transports
packets over the UDP layer. It provides all the 802.IQv1 functionality, with the
added features of software upgrade capability over RF, the ability to add third-party
access points between controllers and terminals, and integration into the mapRF system,
if desired.
Important: 802.IQ should only be enabled on wired 9150s.
Do not configure 802.IQ on wired 9150s bridging networks, since
802.IQ beacons would be sent through the WDS link from one
network to the other (see “Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
Configuration” on page72).

Beacon Period
An 802.IQ beacon is a broadcast sent out to all 802.IQ-enabled terminals. The
beacon allows terminals to determine when they have roamed between base stations.
It enables a terminal to determine whether or not the base station or controller was
rebooted and, if so, how to recover. If the controller was rebooted, the terminal
closes all sessions and fully re-initializes. If the base station was rebooted, or if the
terminal moved to a different 9150, a warm initialize is done (no data will be lost).
The Beacon Period parameter acceptable value ranges from 1 to 20 seconds. The
default value is 2.
Terminal Offline Timeout
This parameter sets the time (in minutes) before the 802.IQ task on the 9150 will
send an offline message to the cellular master declaring the terminal offline.
The acceptable value ranges from 1 to 240. The default value is 5.

Enabled
This parameter enables ( ) or disables the 802.IQv2 protocol.
The default value is disabled.
Beacon UDP Port
This parameter identifies the UDP port for beacon broadcasts. If more than one
802.IQv2 controller is on the network, the parameter must be changed to separate
the systems. The parameter must also match the corresponding parameter on the ter-
minal. The range of values is 5001 to 65535. The default value is 8888.
Beacon Gateway Interface
This is the interface on which the beacons are sent out.
The default is [1] 10BaseT Ethernet.

Chapter 7: 9100 Monitoring/Diagnostics
Fault Monitoring
7.1 Fault Monitoring
Once power to a port is applied, the microcontroller enters a fault monitoring mode.
The diagnostic functions are:
Low current condition
High current condition
Power Monitoring (conducted regardless of port state)
7.1.1 Low Current Detection
The microcontroller continuously checks ports in the “ON” state to determine if
each/any is in an under-current condition (this will typically happen when the Ether-
net cable is disconnected or some other fault occurs). This ensures that a powered
cable, when disconnected from a powered device, cannot be reconnected into some
other device, possibly causing damage to a non-compliant device.
If a Low Current condition is detected, then the power to the port is turned off. This
process is carried out for each of the four ports during fault monitoring. Following a
Low Current detection, the 9100 starts the discovery process again after a two-
second delay.
This fault is indicated by a slowly flashing yellow LED. After a two-second delay,
the 9100 will start the resistor detection again.
7.1.2 High Current Detection
Once a port is enabled, a sense voltage is measured periodically by the microcon-
troller to ensure that it remains less than the maximum allowed voltage, otherwise
an over-current fault occurs. A maximum continuous current of up to 350 mA is
allowed. To allow for inrush currents, which may occur when a powered device is
first connected (or the presence of a short or surge on the line), a hardware current-
limiting circuit ensures fail-safe output power control during the first 100mS follow-
ing port power-ON. Subsequently, the microcontroller will turn the port power OFF
immediately upon detection of an overcurrent condition.
Note: There is a five-second safety period before the 9100 begins resistor detec-
tion on a port that has triggered the overcurrent detection.
Chapter 7: 9100 Monitoring/Diagnostics
Power Monitoring
198 Teklogix 9150 Wireless Gateway User Manual
7.1.3 Power Monitoring
The 9100 power monitoring circuit constantly checks the operating condition of the
internal power supply. If the power goes out of range, all ports are turned off, and all
LEDs will be in Fast blink mode.
7.2 Diagnostics and Status Reporting
The 9100 PowerBaseT console port consists of a UART port on the microcontroller,
RS232 transceiver (U7) and a DB9 connector. Detailed information and the DB9
connector pinout is given on page B-4. The DB9 connector is used for the following
functions:
Report Status Using a PC and HyperTerminal.
Programming/Download Supports code updates by Field Service personnel.
The microcontroller is required to provide the following functions:
Maintain port status Port off, Port on, fault
Maintain port control Port enabled, Port disabled
Report power consumption Monitor current flow using the current
sensing circuit.
The information in Figure 7.1 on page 199 is output on the console port every
second. The frequency at which this information is updated is adjustable via a
console command input. It can be set anywhere from never to 65,535 seconds, in
one-second increments. Serial port settings are 19,200 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1
stop bit.
Note: High and Low Current Detection:
A fault condition will be indicated by the LEDs and on the console until the
fault is cleared, either by the resistor detection for that port succeeding and
the port being switched ON, or disabling and re-enabling the port from
the console.

Diagnostics and Status Reporting
Figure 7.1 Annotated Console Information Screen
The possible states for any one port, as listed in Figure 7.1, are described below:
Disabled
Disabled in software via the console port. The port is inactive and will remain in
this state until it is enabled via the console, or the 9100 is reset. When the port is
activated, it transitions to the OFF state.
OFF
In this state the 9100 is constantly performing the auto-detect algorithm,
looking for 9150DCs connected to the port. When a 9150DC is found, the port
will transition to the ON state.
ON A 9150DC has been found, and DC power is switched on. The port is constantly
monitored for fault conditions. If everything remains within operating specifica-
tion, the port will remain in the ON state. Fault conditions may transition the
port to the Low Current fault or High Current fault state.

Low Current fault
A 9150DC that was previously being powered on this port has either been dis-
connected, or is not operating correctly. The 9100 will remove power from the
port and remain in this state for a minimum of two seconds before transitioning
to the OFF state. The port will continue to indicate the Low Current fault until it
either transitions to the ON state, or is disabled via the console.
High Current fault
A 9150DC that was previously being powered on this port is drawing too much
current from the 9100, or there is a short in the connecting cabling. The 9100
will remove power from the port and remain in this state for a minimum of five
seconds before transitioning to the OFF state. The port will continue to indicate
the High Current fault until it either transitions to the ON state, or is disabled via
the console.

(10BaseT or 100BaseT) to the hub.
Important: For Main Logic Board (MLB) P/N 30183-301 Rev F only: When
connecting the RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the 9150T (AC power ver-
sion), ensure that the snap-on ferrite for cables (P/N 97776) is
placed on the cable as closely as possible to the RJ-45 jack. To
determine which version of the MLB is resident in your 9150,
please contact Psion Teklogix Support Services (see page A-1).

B.4 9100 PowerBaseT Console Port Pinout
The 9100 PowerBaseT console port consists of a UART port on the microcontroller,
RS232 transceiver (U7) and a DB9 connector (J16) pins 2 (RXD), 3 (TXD) and 5
(GND). The same connector (J16) is used to connect the Programmer to the 9100
PowerBaseT.
Note: Programming equipment for Field Service use:
Programmer (P/N 21297)
Cable, Programmer to 9100 (P/N 98109)
Cable, Programmer to PC (P/N 19687)
The DB9 connector pins 1, 4, 5, 6, and 9 are used during the programming/down-
load phase. The DB9 connector pinout is given in the table on page B-5, with the
Function field describing the function performed by each pin (Programming/Down-
load or Console).
The DB9 connector is used for the following functions:
Report Status Using a PC and HyperTerminal.
Programming/Download Supports code updates by Field Service personnel.
The microcontroller features a full duplex (separate receive and transmit registers)
UART with baud generator, 8 or 9 data bits, noise filtering, overrun detection,
framing error detection, and interrupts. The transceiver is 5 V powered with two
drivers and two receivers with extra protection against ESD.
