| Context |
This article describes a function or feature of the software ZOC Terminal. The feature or element of the software described here is 'The AutoConnect Feature'. ZOC Terminal is a professional terminal emulator that is well known for its extensive features, security, user friendlyness, wide range of emulations and quality of emulation implementation. ZOC Terminal is a common choice to replace other terminal emulators like Putty, Kitty, Termius, Secure-CRT, Attachmate Extra!and others.
When you selected one or more entries from the host directory or choose Quick Connection from the File Menu the AutoConnect window will pop up. It will try to connect you successfully to the number(s) you selected. If a number is busy it will try the next in the list (if more than one was selected) or retry the number. To do that, AutoConnect will use the values you set in Options→Program Settings→AutoConnect options to define the maximum number of retries and the time between attempts to call the same number.
During AutoConnect you can control the operation using four buttons:
| Cancel | |
Abort calling.
| |
| Retry Now | |
If AutoConnect waits to call the next number you can skip the delay
and retry at once.
| |
| Skip This | |
This function skips the call to a number and proceeds with
the next in the list. The skipped number will be called later.
| |
| Drop This | |
This function cancels the attempt to call a number and proceeds with the next in the list. The cancelled number will be removed from the connection list. | |
A special feature is that the window switches between a small
and a large version if you click on the minimize/maximize button in the
upper right corner of the window.
