What's New in This Version

New in Velocity Console 1.0.1

• Disable predictive formatting. Disables access at the device level to any screens without template changes from the Velocity Console. For more information, see Configuring Host Profiles.

• Static element grid and spanning. Screen elements can be arranged side-by-side in rows or with columns and rows as a table on a reformatted screen. For more information, see Editing Screen Elements.

• Autologin parameters. When creating host profiles, administrators can enter values for the username and password fields to automatically log users into a host profile or prompt for login credentials. These credentials can be set as variables such as a store or gun number so that when a user launches the Velocity Client on their device, they must then enter the login credentials requested for that variable to log in. For more information, see Configuring Host Profiles.

• Cursor Zones. Establish multiple template rules on a single screen that change the template as users move from field to field. When multiple cursor zones are set for a screen, the template rules associated with each zone are applied as a user tabs from one field to the next. For more information, see Editing Screen Elements.

• Element reordering. From the Reformatted Screen panel, you can change the assigned order of elements by clicking and dragging. For more information, see Editing Screen Elements.

• VT Answer Back. Allows Velocity to displays a string on the Smart device when it receives an ENQ from the host. For more information, see Configuring Host Profiles.

• Workstation ID. Allows the inclusion of an ID for mobile devices connecting to an IBM host. For more information, see Configuring Host Profiles.

• VT Scan Terminator. The Host Profile options for Send ENTER key and Send TAB key were replaced with the VT Scan Terminator field at the top of the Scanner Settings. With this option, you can set an accepted terminator value such as TAB, ENTER, or blank. For more information, see Configuring Host Profiles.
