Terminal Emulation MacWise emulates ADDS Viewpoint, Wyse 50, Wyse 60, Wyse 370, Televideo TV 925, DEC VT100, VT220 and Prism terminals. Supports ANSI and SCO ANSI color. Esprit III color is also supported in Wyse 370 mode. MacWise allows a Macintosh to be used as a terminal – connected to a host computer directly, by modem, local area network or over the Internet with telnet or ssh secure shell. The emulators support video attributes such as dim, reverse, underline, 132-column modes, protected fields and graphic characters sent from the host computer, as well as enhanced Viewpoint mode. Features include phone list and dialer for modems, on-screen programmable function keys, connection scripts and more.
This review is a long-time in coming. Back at the end of 2013 I wrote an article on Enabling a USB to Serial Port Adapter in OSX.The issue was that Apple changed the way the drivers worked under Mavericks and there were some tricks you had to do to get them working again. Serial will get it working again while leaving your Mac's security features intact. Flawless Emulation Serial is a full-featured terminal emulator supporting Xterm, VT102, and ANSI terminal controls.
Works with desktop Macs, MacBook and PowerBook. Connectivity 1. Built-in Modem 2. Telnet / TCP/IP 3.
SSH Secure Shell 4. Serial ports via 6. Also communicates directly with the Mac Unix Shell 7. Special iPhone sized window for use with third-party VNC software. See 'Using MacWise with an iPhone' online at Scroll Back You can scroll back to the past 40 pages of data. MacWise remembers the last 40 pages that appear on your screen, regardless of whether the data has scrolled across the screen or the screen has cleared.
Video attributes such as inverse and underline are also saved, including colors. This means that you can use the scroll bar to scroll back to previous screens to look at the data or print a scrolled-back page or copy a selection into the clipboard. AppleScript Support MacWise supports. Many functions of MacWise can be controlled by a script (such as transferring data to and from the host, sending commands to the host and messages to the MacWise user). Scripts compiled as applications can be run from 'Run AppleScript' under the Special Menu.
For instance, you can write a script to transfer data from the host to a file on your Macintosh and then tell another application to open that file. File Transfers Kermit Accuterm ftp text.
I have a SPARCstation 20 that runs headless. I would like to connect a 25pin serialUSB adapter between the USB port on a TiBook and the DB-25 serial port on the back of the SS20, and be able to run some kind of terminal emulator on Mac OS X to interact with the SS20. Please offer suggestions as to what terminal software I can run, as well as what USB DB-[9,25] serial adapter I can buy that will work with OS X. I see that keyspan has some adapters with OS X drivers. Thanks for everyones help! I've made the Keyspan USB -> Mac serial adapter in conjunction with ZTerm work for me.

I've got some data here on this worksheet called 'Paste Special,' and I'm thinking that I might want to put in the remaining six months of the year. And also the ability to transpose data. 
Sometimes you can use it for updating numerical cells without writing formulas. You can also use it for pasting links and for various ways of copying just formats or just values.
I use this to connect to router and switch console ports. The Keyspan USB PDA should work as well, but the trick to either adapter is having the right cable to interconnect your device. If you go with the Keyspan 2 port USB -> Mac serial, here are the Mac serial pin outs and descriptions to help you with a cable choice. Note: Ground pin 8 for standard RS232. Use Tx/Rx + and - for balanced serial connections. I believe that would be RS422.
8 pin mini DIN Mac serial pinout: 1) HSKo output handshake (DTR) 2) HSKi input handshake (CTS) 3) TxD- (transmit data for RS232) 4) Ground 5) RxD- (receive data for RS232) 6) TxD+ 7) Not connected 8) RxD+ (ground this to emulate RS232) Here is a pinout for a female DB9 Null Modem adapter. You can use this pinout to see how the signals are matched between DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) and DCE (Data Communications Equipment). You should be able to match signals for your Sun Station's serial DB25.
The DB25 serial pin outs I don't have handy but should be easily found on the net.
