Wavelink Terminal Emulation
Overview
Industry standard terminal emulation
Wavelink Terminal Emulation (TE) is the industry leading emulation client and is in use on more than 3 million mobile devices worldwide, including many of the largest retailers in the world. Wavelink TE is the most comprehensive solution for accessing, managing and maintaining connections to applications resident on host systems using popular emulation types that include 5250, 3270, VT and HP emulation. Where other terminal emulators only support some of today’s input types, only Wavelink TE supports virtually all data types. Wavelink TE’s tight integration with mobile computers provides the ability to accept data from the keyboard, barcode scanner, voice inputs, RFID reader, and magnetic stripe reader or touch screen.
Wavelink Terminal Emulation software features the broadest range of supported devices across all major AIDC mobile device vendors and OS platforms. As an agnostic solution, Wavelink TE supports DOS and Windows® based devices and preserves existing infrastructure investment, while providing an easy migration path to newer devices and technologies.
Wavelink TE helps your system and people work smarter by providing intelligent data collection and communications functions. Prevent errors and inefficiencies caused by incorrect data entry or scans, take advantage of easy on-screen navigation, and maximize the uptime of your workforce by avoiding dropped connections, directed messages and error notices.
Features
Security
Wavelink TE offers one of the most secure, configurable and flexible terminal emulation clients available. Up-to-date with the latest security standards, we help keep data safe as it travels over the wireless LAN (WLAN). Industry standard communications, including 802.11a/b/g, provide simplicity and speed in virtually any WLAN environment. With a robust WLAN connectivity that enables users to roam in and out of wireless coverage, you can reboot devices and change batteries without losing the application state.
Voice solution
Easily add voice with a drag and drop voice designer to terminal emulation with Wavelink Speakeasy Voice-enabled emulation without creating new server-side applications, specialized voice-specific mobile devices or additional servers. Wavelink Speakeasy provides a low cost, high quality integration of voice driven, hands-free data collection features into existing host connectivity applications.
Tools for IT support
Wavelink TE provides a wealth of tools to simplify IT support. IT personnel can take control of a Telnet session while device session logs provide insight into the performance history for that specific device, including scanning levels and battery issues. This combination of capabilities allows IT to quickly and easily troubleshoot and resolve device issues, ensuring users return to work promptly.
Session Persistence
You can avoid dropped connections with Wavelink ConnectPro as part of your emulation solution, without adding a single point of failure. Allow devices to freely roam in and out of RF coverage, survive a device reboot or battery change while maintaining the application state and seamlessly reconnect to the host application.
WWAN support
Users can set Host Profiles in Wavelink TE to automatically connect to a given WWAN when a terminal emulation session begins, thereby allowing users to use cellular networks, such as GPRS, when the wireless WAN is not available. Administrators can set this option to automatically disconnect from a WWAN when all sessions using it are disconnected.
Advanced scripting
The Wavelink TE Script Editor allows administrators to easily navigate their scripts with an improved user interface in the Script Text-Editor, which includes a menu bar, a tool bar and a status bar with line numbers. With the Script Editor, administrators can quickly and easily identify potential errors in scripts and jump to the location of an error with the new Script Editor Debugger for TelnetWin.
Simplify applications and reduce errors by creating and executing scripts within host application sessions by automating common user functions. Scripts are easily created and executed to solve real world problems.
Screen Reformatter
With an easy to use WYSIWYG screen editor, administrators are able to capture emulation screens and reformat the screens to optimize the end-user experience for their particular mobile device and work environment. This leads to an improved user experience and better productivity to help meet today’s business needs. Within Wavelink TE administrators can deploy the new screens seamlessly to the desired mobile devices, using Wavelink Avalanche or ActiveSync.
Easy-to-use navigation
Make your mobile workers more productive with smart user-interface features such as touch screen hotspots, display lockdown, key mapping, keyboard macros, configurable battery level and signal strength indicators.
Wireless updates of emulation client and settings
Drastically reduce support costs by updating emulation parameters and load/update the emulation client wirelessly from a central console.
Minimize support and administration costs with integrated management
Relieve the burden of supporting your software and mobile devices. Wavelink TE comes tightly integrated to be remotely configured, secured, managed and updated from a central management console. Using Wavelink Avalanche with Wavelink TE allows you to seamlessly revise device configurations, synchronize software and update firmware and drivers. To monitor and manage your install base of mobile devices and applications, Wavelink Avalanche also provides real-time visibility into their status. You can also keep track of all managed assets and export asset data to reporting applications.
Connectivity to host systems without modification of existing applications
Set up emulation parameters, keyboard mapping and host connection profiles remotely through an integrated central management console with Avalanche device management solutions.

Naurtech's CETerm Terminal Emulator Version 5.7
What's New in Version 5.7
Here are some highlights of the new features and enhancements:
Signature Capture Object.
CETerm now contains a signature capture object that can create images of signatures or an array of coordinates for a compact representation. The Signature Capture object is accessible via scripting and can be used by both web and terminal emulation sessions. See the CETerm Scripting Manual for complete details.
Digital Clock Display.
The current time and/or date can be displayed in any text format on the screen. The clock display can also be used to display information to the user and can be updated via scripting to provide alerts.
Extensive Additions to CETerm Scripting.
Once again, most new features are implemented within CETerm Scripting to provide the greatest flexibility. We’ve added new Automation Objects and events to provide more access to the device and CETerm behaviors. As always, we use the industry standard JavaScript language so you won’t waste time learning a limited and cumbersome proprietary language. Please see the CETerm Scripting Guide for a full description of the available features.
New Scripting Automation Objects.
Here is a list of the new automation objects in CETerm scripting:
- Device.SignatureCapture ? Signature Capture control.
- Device.SmartCard ? Contactless SmartCard (CASIO)
- Device.GPS ? Access and control GPS device.
- OS.SIP ? Soft Input Panel control.
- OS.Network.ConnectionManager ? Network connection control.
- CETerm.Session(i).Screen ? New scrolling controls added.
Additional Web Browser Extensions.
Our Industrial Web Browser has been fully featured for years. Recent enhancements are mostly found through CETerm Scripting, but we have added a page progress indicator (Windows CE only) and improved the browser loading indicator. We have added the ability to clear cache elements and save the source (Windows CE only). META key actions can now be accessed and changed from scripting. As expected, you can access all CETerm Scripting objects directly from HTML pages to control the device, peripherals, and application behavior. It is truly the most robust platform to build web based Data Collection applications. We continue to support legacy Symbol Pocket Browser and Intermec IBrowse Meta tags as well. The Web Browser is available for all Windows Mobile and Windows CE devices.
Installable Codepages for VT220.
CETerm now supports the installation of single-byte and double-byte code pages for VT220 that are not available from the native Windows “National Language Support” (NLS) on the device. These code pages can also be customized for special applications.
IBM Emulation Enhancements.
CETerm can now restrict the cursor movement on 5250 emulation to input fields only to eliminate input errors. Also, column separator characters can be hidden to reduce screen clutter. We have also added support for the TN3270E (enhanced) protocol.
More Network Awareness Features.
We continue to strengthen the network awareness of CETerm. Now, “Check Network Before Send” is supported for all emulation types. Using this feature and Network Alerts for lost RF connectivity will virtually eliminate dropped sessions without the added burden and expense of a middleware server. CETerm delivers a simpler operating environment and the lowest cost of ownership.
Barcode Scanner Control Improvements.
CETerm integrates the barcode scanner to provide consistent and flexible scanning control. Most devices now support the full release of the scanner when necessary to share the scanner with other applications. For applications which do not integrate the scanner, CETerm can act as a “scan wedge” and deliver scanner input to those applications.
Additional Updates.
In addition to dozens of other enhancements, we added support for new device platforms and current Windows CE versions from all major hardware vendors.
Please refer to the product manuals for details. You can also review the tips in our Support Wiki .
