Use the Conversation tab to specify parameters that apply to the conversation:

In the Local TP name field, type the name you want to use to identify the local program to the network. If you do not provide a value in this field, VA Smalltalk automatically generates a unique name at run time.

Use the Local LU alias combo box to specify the local logical unit you want to connect to on the network. The LU aliases are defined in your communication software configuration.

From the Mode combo box, specify the transmission mode to use for the session. This mode can be any mode defined in the local Communications Manager configuration. The default value is #INTER.

From the Sync level combo box, specify the level of APPC synchronization to use for the conversation.

From the Return control combo box, specify when the local LU should return control to the VA Smalltalk application following an attempt to open a connection.
