Transition (definition)

Transitions are the mechanism by which Host Server navigates from screen to screen. You can create transitions in the Transition Commands window. Transitions contain transition commands.

There are two types of transitions: normal and start up

• Normal transitions navigate from screen A to screen B. In the Transition list, normal transitions look like this:
  
  ScreenA ------------> ScreenB
   

• Start up transitions are started just after the host connection is successfully established. It contains instructions for opening the first screen. A profile may contain only one start up transition. In the transition list, the start up transition looks like this:
  
  {connected} ----------> ScreenA

Note: When creating transitions, remember that they do not have to be to the next screen. A transition can navigate though several screens before it arrives at the target screen. Be sure to add validation transition commands if you are building transition that cross multiple screens.

See Transition Commands window for more information on transitions and transition commands.
