Introduction

This terminal can emulate a number of ASCII

and ANSI terminals, including IBM 3151,

PC-Term and SCO™ Console. The keyboards

supported by the terminal are the 101-key extended PC (EPC), the 106-key PC+, and the ANSI keyboards. The dual host capability of the

terminal allows you to run two different

applications simultaneously. A Setup option is

available to view each “session” on the screen in

a split or full screen display.

Clock, calendar, calculator, ASCII chart,

and diagnostic desk accessories are provided. Another feature is the selectable overscan border which can provide bezel-

to-bezel video.

This terminal also features an easy -to-use Setup menu that is configuration dependent; this means that only the options that are valid for a given emulation or hardware configuration are presented.

Setup also has a “ Quick” menu that summarizes the options most critical to the operation of the terminal. Travel between menus is facilitated by function keys that are listed at the top every menu.

Split screen is not available if one of the sessions is selected as IBM 3151 emulation.
