Profiles define a terminal session, and are analogous to the session configuration files (.atsp, .atcf) used by AccuTerm Desktop. A profile defines the server name or IP to connect to, terminal type, color theme, function keys, screen size, and other settings. The .atsp file used by AccuTerm 8 Desktop is essentially a profile, and in the future you will be able to upload an .atsp file created by AccuTerm 8 Desktop as a profile to use with AccuTerm Web. Each profile must be assigned to one or more roles.
# Info
Prior to creating a user, you will need to have already created your Customer Portal User and be assigned as an Administrator to your company's account.
- Expand the AccuTerm module from the main navigation page in the Customer Portal and select Profiles.
- Select the Create Profile button.
- Enter the name of the Profile and select which Roles will have access to the Profile. Continue through the remaining tabs to configure your AccuTerm Web Profile.
# Info
Profiles save automatically after you have edited a field.
