left and then it reports, “The communications link with the Host has been lost.

3. Double-click on the session that does not come up.

4. Type in a correct Device Name.

Problem 1.6

Solution

3. Double-click on the session that does not come up.

Problem 1.7

The light on the MinIT 6000 is green. The host session is black, with no cursor.

Cause

AS/400 using WRKCFGSTS *DEV first.

Do not use spaces, asterisks, question marks, apostrophes, and double quotation marks in
the Name of Session.
