Tips for Optimizing your 2677e
From the Connection Manager screen, Press F2 for Settings options.
1. Selecting the 122-Key Keyboard: Checking the Enable 122-Key Support will enable functions
of the IBM 5250 style122 key Keyboard.
2. Date/Time: Allows you to modify the date and time shown in the lower right corner of the
screen.
3. Display: Allows you to select between a couple of Background screens, Appearance of your
desktop and Display resolution. The default resolution of the 2677e is 640 x 480 which may be
a little difficult to read the text on some screens. Increasing the resolution to 800 x 600 or
1024 x 768 will greatly increase the clarity of the characters.
a. Display Emulation: Screen clarity can be enhanced after setting the display resolution
by starting the session, click on Settings, Attributes, and check the box for Use Bold Font
in Preferences. Make sure you save your settings by clicking on File, Save Session.
(If using Bold Font, a resolution of 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024 gives the best results).
4. Network and Dial-Up Connections: The 2677e has Dhcp set as default, but if you would like
to set a static IP Address, select the PCI network connection or make a new connection and
select Specify an IP address and enter the address information.
5. Network Utilities: This is a utility for troubleshooting network issues. Allows you to ping an
address, check the IP address of the 2677e and network statistics.

changing devices and settings.
7. Regional Settings: Customize will allow you to modify the Number, Currency, Time and Date
format.
8. System: Allows you to Restore Factory Defaults or change the Device Name or Description.
