Capturing Screens from the TE Client

The screens you import to the Velocity Console and format using themes and custom screen element styles must be captured from the Wavelink Terminal Emulation application. The process of obtaining these screens in TE entails enabling the recording setting, navigating to all screens you'll want to capture, and then saving these screen captures to a .wltsc file to import into the Velocity Console.

To perform these steps, you must have downloaded and installed the TE Client for PC or Windows CE mobile device. To obtain these files, visit the Wavelink website.

To capture screens from the TE Client on a Windows CE device:

1  From the TE Client on the device, tap Options > Logging > Screen Capture.

2  A dialog box appears, asking you where the screen capture file should be saved. Select a location and tap OK.

3  Press Enter to connect to a host. When connected to the host, navigate through each screen of the interface. Be sure to capture any error screens or optional screens in addition to the standard process screens. The TE Client will only record the screens that you access.

4  After accessing all of the screens that you want to import, tap Options > Logging > Screen Capture.

5  Tap Yes.

The screen capture process is ended and the screens are saved to a .wltsc file. If you don't end the screen capture in this manner, the file will be empty. Screens aren't written to the file until you tell the Client you're done recording.

To capture screens from the TE Client on your PC:

1  From the TE Client on your PC, click Term > Screen Capture.

2  A dialog box appears, asking you where the screen capture file should be saved. Select a location and click Save.

3  Press Enter to connect to the host. When connected to the host, navigate through each screen of the interface. Be sure to capture any error screens or optional screens in addition to the standard process screens. The TE Client will only record the screens that you access.

4  After accessing all of the screens that you want to import, click Term > Screen Capture.

The screen capture process is ended and the screens are saved to a .wltsc file. If you don't end the screen capture in this manner, the file will be empty. Screens aren't written to the file until you tell the Client you're done recording.

Once you've captured the screens for your host profile, you can import these to the Velocity Console to create custom themes and screen element styles. For more information, see Importing Screens.
