MAME will actually emulate a VT240.
We spend a bundle, both on Charon VAX emulation and Bluezone Rocket terminal emulation. We used to run the Reflections terminal emulator, but that is up to $500/seat.
I was actually looking for a functional UTS-20 emulator for our OS2200, but that is another story.
MAME will tie the rs232 to an outgoing socket, and I ran it over stunnel to login to my VAX VMS.
It was a really slow Friday.
- naikrovek 4y agohow well did it work?
- chasil 4y agoIt was a little slow. No text cut and paste. The baud rate actually has to be set correctly in the firmware before the connection works. The command line to invoke for the IP address 1.2.3.4 port 23 is: mame -rp . vt240 -window -nothrottle -host null_modem -bitb socket.1.2.3.4:23 These are some useful articles that I read in getting it working. http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/terminal/ http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/terminal/ https://github.com/larsbrinkhoff/terminal-simulator/issues/1 https://github.com/larsbrinkhoff/terminal-simulator/issues/1 https://www.mail-archive.com/simh@trailing-edge.com/msg09086.html https://www.mail-archive.com/simh@trailing-edge.com/msg09086... https://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=117474 https://forums.bannister.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Num... https://simh.trailing-edge.narkive.com/qgzCvrl8/dec-vt-emulators-on-mame https://simh.trailing-edge.narkive.com/qgzCvrl8/dec-vt-emula...
