Typeahead in axes Session TS2

Post by VLNinja70 »

Hey guys,
So going through the doco, I saw that typeahead is enabled by default.
However, when testing this it doesn't seem to be working.
I've tried modifying the TS configuration file to force typeahead to be enabled per the lines below...

"Specifies whether keyboard type-ahead is active in the client. Allowable values are 0 or 1.
Zero (0) disables keyboard type-ahead and 1 enables keyboard type-ahead.
The default value is 1  "

But I haven't had much luck getting it to work still.
Just posting this to see if anyone else has encountered something similar or hopefully know a quick fix of the top of their head. :D
Running the latest version of axes (4.11)
Thanks!

I had a play with this and the only way I could get type ahead to work is with the setting
Typeahead=0 in the aXesTS.conf file

and it only works with the TS engine not the TS2 engine.

Type ahead is definitely a 5250 emulation only feature - hence only available in TS because it's the 5250 emulation version of aXes.

aXes TS2 is the web browser version - so it does not get the same set of 5250 emulation features.

PS: To give a an enhanced 5250 experience in a web browser, plug one these into the users PC :)
