Will not connect thru SonicWall VPN software to iSeries

Trying to setup to test use on iPAD. If MochaSoft would connect thru VPN we could proceed with purchases of full version software for several iPads

Where is my enter button?

Please return my enter button to main screen.

Response from developer

Enter/Return is now as default in the QWERTY screen keyboard. Before QWERTY had a "done", and "enter" at the top of the screen. Now top of the screen has "abc" and "return" is at the QWERTY keyboard. Use "abc" to turn screen keyboard on/off. You can also get the old layout, if using option menu - configure - "swap done with return" = NO (last element in the list).

Great for connection to I-series

Just tried this Lite version. Pretty consistent with IBMs Client Access and HOD emulations

Lite version only has some function keys enabled. I could not use our work system well without the F12 enabled

Overall has that 60s look and feel to it as you expect with anyone emulating a I-series system

The cost for the full version seems a little steep. I would only use my iPad or iphone for emergency access only

Unusable

For iSeries, but no pgup, pgdn! Useless.

Even better

Battery sharing with Linea Pro scanner. Woohoo!

Works!

Easy to set up and works great!

Great Full Featured App!

This app delivers as promised bringing the full functionality of the AS400 terminal application to iOS. I use it to access an ICOMS billing system running on an AS400 server and it works flawlessly.
At the time of this review the paid version of this app is $29.99 which adds additional keyboard functionality. I would easily pay between $1 and $5 just to give the dev kudos (even if I didn't use the extra keyboard) but it would take a significant amount of additional useful features for me to spend $30 for an app, and even then it would be tough to justify as there are very few apps of this nature in that price point. πŸ˜‰

Great app!!

Great app

Very helpful app for people who work on AS400. This app even has an option to scan the barcodes through the camera and take that as an input. Excellent!!

No page up, page down, or F keys.... This is worthless

No Page up/down capabilities

No option for Page Up or Down keys (since there are none on the iOS keyboard) renders it almost useless with my server. Bummer.
