See page 50.
To automatically connect when starting a session:
Enable the Start Session When Application Starts check box.
To automatically run a macro when starting a session:
Enter the macro file name in the Macro name box, or select a specific macro file to run
using the Macro button; then enter the relevant details in the dialog that appears. This is a
“logging on” macro.
If you are recording a logon macro, you may need to fill in the Username and Password
fields.
Opening a Session
To open a session:
Use the Open option in the Session menu or use the toolbar button shown. At the
bottom of the Session menu is a list of your previous sessions to choose from. If you
open a new session, the current session is closed - you are prompted to confirm this.
If you have not previously saved the session, you need to create a new session.
Saving a Session
To save SkyLite’s current session:
Use the Save option from the Session menu or the toolbar button shown.
To save your session parameters to a file with a different name:
Use the Save As option from the Session menu.
Any changes that you have made since the last save or the beginning of this SkyLite
session will still be active.
You can select an image from the Image list box to associate with a particular session in
the Save As dialog.
Connecting to a Session
To connect to a currently-opened session:
Select the Connect option from the Session menu or click the toolbar button shown.
Alternatively, to open and automatically connect to a session, when you are configuring
your session, use the Start Session When Application Starts option in the AutoConnect
dialog.
Disconnecting from a Session
To disconnect from your current session:
Select the Disconnect option from the Session menu or click on the toolbar button
shown opposite, while keeping SkyLite open. This allows you to open and/or connect to
another session without running multiple copies of SkyLite.
Connecting to Multiple Sessions
To open another session while keeping your current session open:
Select the Open Another option from the Session menu. This starts another instance of
SkyLite using your specified session at start-up.
You can have any number of host sessions running concurrently. This is limited only by
available PC memory, or by any other restrictions imposed by, for example, network
communication protocols.
