About Mocha CE Telnet

Mocha CE Telnet is an application for the Microsoft CE Windows platform. It makes it possible to connect to an UNIX Host with the Telnet protocol and emulate a VT220 Terminal.

Functionality

 

Menu system

From the right corner of the Telnet window, it is possible to tap on the menu elements: File, Fx and Keys. Fx is used to access VT220 Function keys and Keys contains a set of other standard VT220 keys as ESC.

In the following we will describe the file menu elements in details.

All parameters in the configuration are saved in the CE registry.

Menu - Connect/Disconnect

Use this command to create a new connection to an UNIX host or terminate a session.

  • UNIX Host: Name of the host. Either an TCP/IP address as 155.22.11.2 or a symbolic name.

    Advanced:

    Menu - Font

    The list is the non proportionally spaced fonts available in your system. On some CE systems there will only be a single font available.

    Menu - Properties

    The properties dialog can be split 4 pages

    Menu - Properties - keyboard layout

    A CE device can include a keyboard, and such a keyboard can include different sets of keys.
    In the left box (key) is a list of all the VT220 functions which can be mapped to a key. Click on a key, and the right box will show the data the key will transmit.

    Notice all non writable characters can be written as octal data using notation \xxx. Example ESC which is hex 0x1b, can be written as \033

    Menu - Properties - license

    After ordering Mocha CE Telnet from MochaSoft, a license key will be received.
    Enter the key together with the Company Name given on the Order.
    As there is link between the Company name and license key it is important to enter both very careful.

    If the program reports "Wrong type of License key" , please check:

    The license dialog box should look as:

    -----------------------------------------------

    This product is licensed to:

    mycompany

    License key:

    B1234

    ---------------------------------------------

    Where you should replace "mycompany" and "B1234" with the information from the License letter.

    Still problems, please contact Mochasoft and if possible include :

  • Product you are using and version.
  • Type of OS/ hardware platform

    Menu - Properties - Other

    Hide status bar Select if the status bar with cursor position should be displayed.
    Screen follows cursor Defines if the screen should scroll to follow the cursor
    Bell If a sound should be given if the UNIX application sends a bell message
    Show negotiation Should only be used if looking for a problem. The telnet protocol will be shown.

    Menu - Properties - Toolbar Icons

    The toolbar next to the menu display a list of icons. It is possible to swap between 3 different tool bars using the arrow left icon. Tap on an element in one of the 3 lists of functions, to enable or disable a function for a toolbar. A function with a "v" in front is enabled.

    Menu - Auto Login

    To make it easier for the novice to use Mocha W32 Telnet to connect to a single host, it is possible to define an automatic login sequence.
    It is possible to define a search string, and a response string which is send back to the host on a match.

    Example:

    Search : Login Response : anonymous\012
    Search : Password Response: mypassword\012

    To include characters as CR and LF, use the octal notation :

    \abc = octal value. (LF = \012 and CR = \015)

    Please notice there is not much security involved doing it! It could be an idea to contact the system administrator to verify it is your company politic to have open access to the system without any password security.
