    openSystemsTerminalControl1.InitInstance();
}
 
private void openSystemsTerminalControl1_TerminalInitializedEvent(object sender, AsyncCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    // Check if error occurred during the terminal initialization
    if (e.Error != null)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Error during terminal initialization step: " + e.Error); return;
    }
 
    ITerminal Terminal = openSystemsTerminalControl1.Terminal;
    ((IConnectingSettingsBestNetwork)Terminal.ConnectionSettings).HostAddress = "yourHostName";
    Terminal.Connect();
