SAPConsole on RF

Former Member

Hi all

We have installed SAPConsole and a Telnet server, plus an RF device with Windows Mobile 5.0.

Do we need to install a Telnet client on the device? If so, what is the preffered client? Does SAP have their own? Are there any that can render the screen graphically as per SAPGUI?

Thanks...

JR

No client is required, if you are running the later versions of sapconsole, then websapconsole is included as well. The device can simply browse to the URL and access SAP via a stripped down gui(really stripped down). In this case, you don't need the telnet server either. If you want to stick with the old text based UI, then you will need some sort of emulator on the device. In my past experience, we always used TE2000 as the emulator, this was for a text based device anyway. In a windows environment, you need this emulator to render the text based screens I believe.
