3.2 Emulation

As a default the ida FS 250 will emulate IBM 3812/5219/3816.

The ida FS 250 PDS emulates IPDS as a default.

You can select emulation in two ways. Either via the address switch or via the line using FSL function Y37.

The following emulations are supported by the ida FS 250: IBM 3812/5219/3816

IBM 5224

IBM 5225

IBM 5256

IBM 4234

If you wish to see the current emulation, you can generate a test printout by turning the address switch to the T-position.

3.2.1 Via the Address Switch

Emulation selected on the address switchis described below.

The T-cable must be disconnected from the converter before changing emulation.

NOTE: Make sure that you have set the address switch before you switch power on.

Select emulation on the address switch as follows:

1.Switch off the box.

2.Turn the address switch to the "T" position. Switch on power to box.

3.When the ida FS 250 is ready, it will eject a page with the following message:

"Current emulation is xxxx"

4.When the address switch is turned to a new position, a new message stating the current emulation will be printed after a few seconds.

5.When the desired emulation has been set, you must switch power off and set the address correctly again (values 0-6). Select one of the following emulations shown below.
