Wavelink Emulators help your system and people work smarter by providing for intelligent data collection and communications functions. For example, Wavelink Emulators help you prevent errors and inefficiencies caused by incorrect data entry or scans, take advantage of easy on-screen navigation, and maximize the uptime of your workforce by avoiding dropped connections. With Wavelink Emulation, you will never drop a session again, and users' connections to the host come integrated with redundancy and fail-over capabilities. It also allows your IT staff to get detailed control over various functions from scanning, to users' access to applications, and interactions with the host, such as directed messages and error notices.

Relieve the burden of supporting your software and mobile devices. Wavelink Emulators come tightly integrated with the ability to be remotely configured, secured, managed and updated - all from a central management console. Using Wavelink Avalanche with your Emulators, you can seamlessly revise device configurations, synchronize software and update firmware and drivers. To monitor and manage your installed base of mobile devices and applications, Wavelink Avalanche also provides real-time visibility into their status and allows you to take remote control of an end user's session for advanced troubleshooting. It also helps you keep track of all managed assets and even lets you export asset data to reporting applications.

Wavelink Emulators provide you with flexibility and investment protection by supporting the broadest range of mobile devices and emulation types available. With Wavelink Emulators, you can preserve your existing infrastructure, while migrating to newer devices and technologies, such as RFID. For example, you can run emulation based applications consistently across your DOS/legacy units and Windows-based devices, providing for a seamless user experience as well as the lowest cost of support and training. You can also integrate support for reading RFID data side by side with barcode and other data collection information from your scanners and readers. Wavelink Emulators give you flexibility to utilize the most popular emulation types including 5250, 3270, VT100, VT110, VT220, VT320 and HP. They also allow you to take advantage of running multiple emulation sessions concurrently (i.e. 5250 and VT), from the same device.

You can protect your mobile devices and the data on them, even when they are away from your wireless network. Using the optional CE Secure plug-in, user authentication is added to each device, together with rules which can encrypt or remove data when devices are lost or stolen.

Wavelink Emulators are used by the world's leading organizations, by 10 of the top 12 North American retailers, and by thousands of customers worldwide. They have more than a decade of expertise and reliability that you can count on. Wavelink Emulators also come with our expert technical support and software maintenance plans that provide you with investment protection and peace of mind.

Wavelink Emulators provide the ability for a help desk or support representative to "remote control" a user's Telnet session and even lock the end user out of the session if desired. This allows for hands-on support of production problems and ultimately gets workers back to being productive rapidly. Wavelink also provides session logs from each device to provide performance insight into areas such as scanning levels, battery issues, time logged on system and more.

Take advantage of running multiple emulation sessions at the same time (i.e. 5250 and VT) and easily navigate between them, all from the same device.

For the IMB 5250 emulation, this feature allows the user to use scripting to configure Field Data Identifiers. Field Data Identifiers assign a unique ID to each field on the screen. Anytime a barcode beginning with that particular ID is scanned, the information is automatically populated in the corresponding field.

Increase productivity by avoiding dropped connections between devices and the host system, using the Wavelink TermProxy as part of your Emulation solution. Devices can freely roam in and out of RF coverage while maintaining application state and seamlessly reconnect to the host. Sessions will also survive a device reboot or battery change allowing users to continue working without interruption. The TermProxy server also provides complete failover capability eliminating the potential for single point of failures.

Preserve your existing infrastructure, while having the flexibility to migrate to newer devices and technologies. For example, DOS/legacy units can co-exist with Windows-based devices for a seamless

Take advantage of tight integration with key scanning functions to maximize data collection productivity. Automatically strip, append, or replace scan data based on length, size, data type; prevent scanning errors using data field identifiers and "scan only" field support; perform automatic scanning using host initiated commands; and more.
