IBM 5250 Emulation
This chapter describes features of the IBM 5250 terminal emulation.
Introduction
The IBM 5250 emulator provides emulation of 5250 type alphanumeric terminals,
both monochrome (green/white plus attributes) and colour. Colours may be modified
using the
Attribute Settings
dialog box. This emulation can be used for connection to
an IBM AS/400, System/36 or System/38. A typeahead capability is provided so that
you can continue to enter data without waiting for a prompt from the host.
Session Configuration
WBT Mode
This section describes the basic procedure for creating a session configuration when
the terminal is in WBT mode. The options available are described in detail in chapter
2.
1.
Click the
Configure
tab in the
Terminal Connection Manager
then click the
Add
button to display the
New Connection
dialog box.
2.
Select
Terminal Emulation Client
and click
OK
. The
Terminal Emulation
Client Connection Wizard - Connection Information
dialog box will be
displayed.
3.
Enter a name which will identify this session configuration for future selection in
the
Connection Name
box.
4.
Select the
IBM 5250
terminal emulation in the
Emulation
list box.
5.
Specify the
IBM 5250 Model
. This is reported back to the host in response to a
terminal identification request. (Note that not all features of the terminal model
may be supported.) This also allows you to specify whether the display is treated
