Get field action

The Get field action in the Terminal Emulator package enables you to retrieve the value of a field based on the index or name of the field and assigns it to a string variable.

Settings

  • Specify the Terminal emulator session name that you used to establish a connection with the terminal using the Connect action.
  • Select the By index option to retrieve the value of a field based on its index, or select the By name option to retrieve the value of a field based on its name.
  • Select a string variable to store the retrieved data from the Assign the value to an existing variable list.
Note: You can use this action with the TN3270E and TN5250E terminal types.
