The setting of the IBM 5250 Monochrome option will match the normal display characteristic of the selected IBM 5250 model by default. Note that the emulation of all IBM 5250 models supports both monochrome and colour display. When monochrome is selected, characters will be displayed in green and intense fields will be displayed in white. When monochrome is not selected, the settings specified in the Attributes dialog box (described in the Setup Menus chapter) will be used for the display.
The setting of the Left Ctrl acts as Reset Key option determines whether or not the left Control key performs the same function as the Reset key.
The setting of the Right Ctrl acts as Enter Key option determines whether or not the right Control key performs the same function as the keypad Enter key.
The setting of the Carriage Return acts as Enter Key option determines whether or not the Return key performs the same function as the keypad Enter key.
