The Profile Editor dialog is divided into four tabs,
Profile, Connection,
Terminal and Special Keys.
Profile - In Profile you need to set a
Profile name and select a connection type. So far, opie-console supports
a 'local console', a Serial and a Modem connection type. You may also
choose for this profile to auto connect after loading by checking the box
at the bottom.
Connection - According to the type of
connection you selected in the previous tab, the options here will vary.
For local console there is no option available.
Modem and Serial share most of the configuration. You can select
a device to use, the speed, the flow control and the parity. On top
of that Modem let's you choose a number to dial and to configure
a set of AT commands.
Terminal - The Terminal Tab lets you
choose a Terminal Type, a color scheme, and the font size.
Special Keys - The fourth tab is there to
customize the drop-down software keyboard for each profile. You can
select how many rows and columns you want on your keyboard. To edit a
key, tap on the key and select a label, enter the Q Keycode and the
Unicode Value. Click here for
more information about these values.
Clicking the OK button on the top right corner saves this profile and loads the profile for use.
