There are
five options of general configuration,
that may configured:
Bring To Top When Host Message Arrives
When any message is received from TELNET server, Tec3270 window will be bring to the top of other desktop opened windows.
Activate Yale NULL Processing
All null characters received from TELNET server will be translated to blank.
Create LOG File
All session messages (connect, disconnect and errors messages)will be writed to an file named as [session{x}_{server}.log]
where {x} is the Tec3270 session number and {server} is the session name specified on [Session Name].
Sound Alarm On
Turn the terminal sound alarm on or off. If it is marked the sound alarm is on, otherwise is off.
Monitoring
Interval time (in seconds) while the session screen will be shown when the {Session Monitoring}
item, selected on [Tools] menu item is activated. This selection causes all active sessions screens to be presented,
one by one, during this "Interval Time", defined in each one, in an wrapped way, that is, after last session
screen have been shown, the first one will be presented again and so on, until the selection is unselected.

The session connection to the server could be entirely automated by using an script file
on block
Script:
By choosing
Script On,
the "Script File Name" field is activated and the name of desired script file, that is composed of Tec3270 script commands,
must be informed.
This "script file" should be created using any text editor (like windows notepad) and it must have
an command sequence to guide the session connection. Using this feature associated to "Automatic Connections"
facility it is possible to start Tec3270 and connect one or more sessions without no operator intervention,
except when passwords are needed (as an security protection we do not recommend to insert passwords on any file).
For having an complete commands description and getting some samples, see
Using Script Files section.
