SAPGUI: Activate Low Speed Connection (LSC)

The option for Low Speed Connection (LSC) signals a slow network connection being used so that the application can react to the condition with the following optimizations, at a per log on session level:

  • Menus are loaded only on demand
  • Background bitmaps are not transferred (depending on application)
  • The list control transfers only the lines that are visible on the screen and the application can query the flag to react to the network condition individually
  • The transferred dataset for controls is limited with LSC
  • Field and input history are not available

You should use this flag whenever network bandwidth is an issue. SAP recommend that you use the option particularly for WAN connections, because the line capacity is usually smaller than for LAN connections.

LSC Activation

Open the SAP Logon and right click on the connection entry. Choose Properties.
