Configuring Host Profiles
A host profile defines the settings that the Velocity Client should use when it attempts to initiate a connection with a specific host. The host profile may include the emulation type, IP address of the host, or other settings. You may configure an unlimited number of host profiles from the device or through Wavelink Avalanche. Only one host profile is allowed per project using Velocity Console, and a host profile is required to deploy a project.
When a device user attempts to initiate a session with a host, the Velocity Client displays a list of available host profiles. The user selects the host he wants to connect to, and the Velocity Client uses the host profile settings to connect to the host.
Host Profile
Profile Name |
The name of the host profile. |
Host Address |
The IP address or host name of the host system to which the mobile device will connect. |
Port |
The TCP port number on which the host system is listening for emulation requests from Clients. By default, the port is set to 23. When Use SSH or Use SSH Tunnel is selected, the default port is changed to 22. |
Emulation Type |
The emulation type that the mobile device uses when connected to the host system. |
Server Language | Allows the Client to interpret international characters from a specific codepage. The default for this setting is 37 IBM EBCDIC for 5250/3270 emulations and DEC VT (this option is not located on the drop-down) for VT emulations. |
Display Language | This feature is not fully implemented. |
VT Answer Back |
Displays a string on the Smart device when it receives an ENQ from the host. It supports the following variables: • %m - %r representing the six octets of the MAC address. For example, use • %a - %d representing the four octets of the IP address. • %s representing the session number. • %t representing the terminal ID (Avalanche only). • \## representing a hex character value. This option is only available to VT emulation types. |
Workstation ID |
An ID for mobile devices connecting to an IBM host. The ID may include static characters and the following switches, which are used to capture dynamic data specific to each mobile device. It supports the following variables: • %a - %d. Captures specific octets of the IP address of the mobile device. For example, use %a%b%c%d to capture all four IP octets of the address of the mobile device, or use %d to capture only the last octet of the IP address of the mobile device. • %m - %r. Captures specific octets of the MAC address of the mobile device. For example, use %p%q%r to capture the last three octets of the MAC address of the mobile device. • %s. Captures the session number. A workstation ID can be 1-20 alphanumeric characters plus switches, but IBM hosts usually truncate workstation IDs that are more than 10 characters. The workstation ID should not begin with a numeric character. This option is only available to IBM emulation types. |
Retry Workstation ID | Allows the Velocity Client to retry the workstation ID with a letter appended to it. |
Default Native Mode |
Forces the Velocity Client to display screens in Native Mode (black and green screen) when a user connects to this host profile. If this option is not selected, the Client's HTML rendering engine is used to update the appearance of screens. |
Auto Switch to Native Mode | Determines if the Velocity Client will automatically display screens without an HTML template in Native Mode. When enabled, all screens encountered without an HTML template will display in the traditional black and green screen. When disabled, these same screens display a loading animation and a Native Mode button. In this instance, the screen will not display until Native Mode is selected, or the user goes back a screen. |
Disable Predictive Formatting |
Disables all predictive screens so that they do not appear on the Velocity Client. Any screen labeled as "Predictive" on the Screens tab cannot be used on the Client. Only screens that have been edited and are labeled as "Template" are usable at the device level. For more information about predictive versus template screens, see Editing Screen Elements. Predictive formatting should only be disabled if you have made manual changes to each screen. If a screen is unedited and displays as "Predictive" from the Screens tab, then the screen will not load at the device level and only displays a wait screen. No inputs are allowed on these screens. |
Auto Carriage Return |
Automatically applies the Enter or Send function after a menu option is selected from the Velocity Client. |
Enable Logging | Enables the creation of a log file on devices using this project on the Velocity Client. The logging file allows for more in-depth troubleshooting by Wavelink support personnel. This file is stored on the device in the com.wavelink.velocity folder. |
Log File Max Size (kB) | The maximum allowable size for the log file before the oldest entries are automatically removed. This cannot be altered unless Enable Logging is set to Yes. By default, this is set to 1024 kilobytes. |

If left empty, this button does not appear when a menu is displayed. For a list of accepted values, see Keyboard Codes. |
Menu Down Command |
The hex code value for a menu down key. On the device toolbar, this appears to the left or right of the keyboard button. When the button is pushed, the defined key code is sent to the host. If left empty, this button does not appear when a menu is displayed. For a list of accepted values, see Keyboard Codes. |

User Agent String |
Provides variable information about the device connected to the host. This setting allows the following variables types: • ESN • IMEI • MAC • IP • Model • Manufacturer To request these data types, you must input them in variable format. For example: Wavelink (%ESN%-%MAC%-%IP%-%MODEL%-%MANUFACTURER%) You can set data types to detect and insert colons (:) by inserting the symbol into the variable. For example: Wavelink (%MAC:%) Devices connecting to the host profile will return all of the device details requested for the string above. If any of your variables inject content such as punctuation into the user agent string, you must enclose the variable with parentheses () like those found in the example above; otherwise, this functionality may not work properly. |

For example: 192.168.42.%Store Number% The text that is inside the % indicators is the information that appears in the prompt on the device. In the above example, the prompt on the device would ask the user for "Store Number." If the user provides the store number 123, the Client attempts to connect to 192.168.42.123. |
Port |
The TCP port number on which the proxy server is listening for emulation requests from clients. |
