IBM 5250 Emulation Capabilities

The IBM 5250 terminal emulation provides emulation of 5250 type alphanumeric terminals, for connection to an IBM AS/400, System/ 36 or System/38.

Monochrome (green/white plus attributes) and color is supported. Colors may be modified using the Attribute Settings dialog.

A typeahead capability is provided so that you can continue to enter data without waiting for a prompt from the host.

Keyboard Mapping

The functions of the computer keyboard are mapped as closely as possible to the terminal being emulated. The mapping of key functions can be determined by referring to the Emulation Keys list box in the Key Macro Settings dialog, which is displayed by selecting Key Macros... on the Tools menu.

The information in brackets in the right column indicates the default mapping of the key function named in the left column. In the list, S+ indicates the Shift key, C+ indicates the Control key and A+ indicates the Alt key. For example:

AS_ERASEINPUT (A+VK_PAUSE)

indicates that the Erase Input function is mapped to the key combination Alt + Pause.

Special key functions usually found on an IBM 5250 keyboard can be mapped to any key on your keyboard using the AS virtual key names listed in the Key Macro Settings dialog.
