3278 settings with the E extension provide support for the following extended attributes (these are supported by the 3279 as standard):

◦3270 Field Attributes

◦Extended Highlighting

◦Foreground Color

◦Query Reply Inbound Structured Fields

●Telnet 3270 Regime Factory default: Unchecked

Check this box to enable support for the Telnet 3270 regime, otherwise it will be suppressed.

●Telnet 3270E

Factory default: Unchecked

Check this box to enable support for the Telnet 3270E regime, otherwise it will be suppressed.

●LU Connect Name

This specifies the name of the device which the server will be requested to assign to the Telnet session.

You can return the local host name by entering %s after the device name. To return the user name, enter %u after the device name. You can specify how many characters of the name is returned in each case. For example, %.3s will return the first three characters of the local host name, and %-.3swill return the last three characters.

To automatically assign a new device name for each successive connection, either enter %dN% after the name, where N is a decimal value, or %xN%, where N is a hexadecimal value. Each time the host requests the device name a counter will be substituted into the device name. If the host rejects the device name as in use the counter will be incremented modulus N and the name retried until all possibilities have been tried, at which point the emulation will report a device name rejected error.

For example, TEST%d4% will give TEST1 on all connections until the host rejects the name as in use, in which case TEST2 will be used. If this is already in use then TEST3 is used, or if already in use then TEST0. These values are preserved over power off, so the first connection of any given power on may not be TEST1. Assume that the start point is random.

When you achieve a TN3270E connection, the LU device name that you are connected as will be displayed on the status line. If the specified device is rejected by the server or host, then an error message box will be displayed indicating the reason.
