The Administrator's Terminal Emulator is a DHTML-based window that is hosted in the Admin.HTA window. It communicates to the Inventu Viewer+ Service using XML-over-HTTP (the same approach as used by Web Services) and requires Internet Explorer 5.5 and Above.
The Keyboard is setup as a terminal's keyboard, including the use of the Function Keys (see the next section for details on the keyboard layout and use).

Refresh Button
The emulator window uses a constant request that ensures an event-driven update of the display. However, should you feel that the current view in the emulator is not accurate, you can click on the Refresh button to refresh the display directly from the current emulation screen buffer.
Closing the Emulator Window
You can close the emulator window with the Close Button or by clicking on the X in the upper-right corner of the emulation window:
This does not stop the session because in many cases a terminal session is viewed in the administration window to check on an active session that should not be stopped just because the need to view it has ended. See stopping a session if you also want to stop a session after closing the emulator window.
