Screens

Today, the touchscreen market demands graphically attractive and easy-to-use screens. With Terminal Emulation you retain the underlying functionalities of your terminals or client computers, but give them a modern look and associated interface that the end user is used to today.

Today it is possible to convert traditional ‘green screens’ into modern touch-friendly screens with a software tool. A kind of graphical layer is created over the application, with no changes to the current application and the WMS.

DatAction always develops this graphical layer together with the customer. We go through the current picking process and design the new graphic layer based on that. This way you retain full control over the appearance of the modern screens without sacrificing the functionalities on which your work processes are based.

Solutions and Benefits of Terminal Emulation

Our latest software supports all emulation screens and all inputs they may process. The software automatically detects the emulation screens and determines what input is required. This can be defined per field or screen.

Consider, for example, quantity (QTY) input, which only requires a numeric keypad. Or when the answer is simply “yes” or “no”, dial fields are converted to keys. Terminal Emulation (TE) is therefore a unique and powerful tool that not only optimizes user-friendliness, but also the productivity of your employees. Some benefits and features that TE has to offer:

  • Productivity: Increased productivity through streamlined and easy-to-use application screens.
  • Protect investments: Exploit and protect investments in host applications and servers.
  • Fast Deployment: Instantly use existing apps on Android, iOS, and Windows touchscreen devices.
  • Risk mitigation: Deploy a modern touchscreen app without the risk of long deployment cycles, expensive software or services.

DatAction uses high-quality platforms that create a modern working environment, such as StayLinked from SmartTE and Ivanti from Velocity.
