IBM Magstar 3494 manual Sending the Ctrl+Esc Command to the Library Manager

Sending the Ctrl+Esc Command to the Library Manager

To send the Ctrl+Esc command to the library manager during an active session, do the following:

vChoose Send Ctrl+Esc from the Keystrokes pull-down on the remote library manager console session window (see Figure 159 on page 247).

vPress the Ctrl+C shortcut key if the remote library manager console is in keystrokes local mode.

Sending the Ctrl+Esc command lets you display the task list on the library manager. After you display the task list, you can choose a task from the list.

Changing the Session State from the Remote Library Manager Console

The session state is the current state of the session between the remote library manager console and the library manager workstations. Both workstation users can change the session. While the remote library manager console is changing the session state, the library manager cannot alter that session. If both users try to change the state at the same time, the library manager takes precedence.

A status indicator of the session appears in the title bar of the session window or, when the session interface is minimized, under the remote library manager console icon.

Figure 160 on page 250 shows the remote library manager console window in the library manager's display during an active session. The remote library manager console is in keystrokes remote mode.
