LINCS Configuration

Windowing
The Windowing feature enables you to create up to five windows on a CUT mode display
station. These windows can simultaneously display five of the concurrent logical sessions
that are possible with the Multiple Logical Sessions (MLS) feature. You can size, move, add,
delete, and zoom the windows, and you can copy data from one window to another. In addition,
you can set up windowing screen profiles that contain different arrangements of windows.
Calculator
LINCS provides a four-function nonscientific calculator accessible from a CUT mode display
station. The calculator allows you to perform quick and accurate calculations without exiting
your host session. The calculator performs operations in decimal (base 10), hexadecimal
(base 16), or octal (base 8) mode.
The calculator uses Feature Memory from the Presentation Space Storage.
Typeahead
With the Typeahead feature, you can continue to type data after the 3270 protocol locks the
keyboard or during a printer busy condition. The keystrokes are queued and processed when
the input inhibit is cleared. The feature permits the queuing and subsequent processing of up
to 64 keystrokes.
Refer to the panel Deferred Keystroking vs. Typeahead for a comparison of these two methods
of buffering keystrokes. Deferred Keystroking is enabled on the 3270 Host Profile section.
RPB Record Function
This field determines whether or not devices assigned to the profile have the capability to
“record” using the Record/Playback feature. Devices which are not allowed to record may be
allowed to playback any sequences which have been defined as global sequences, if authorized
in the Resource Authorization Matrix.
Display Host ID
If this option is ENABLED, the Host Identifier will be displayed on the status line of sessions
connected to a host. The host identifier is displayed as follows.
• 3270 Host : If a session is connected to a 3270 Host, then the Host Identifier will be
displayed, along the the LU number. Whether the LU number is displayed in hex or
decimal is set in the General Options panel.
• ASCII Host : If a session is connected to an ASCII Host Class, then the Class Name is
the Host Identifier. If the session is connected to a specific ASCII Port (A0-D7), then
the Host Identifier is Host_XX where XX represents the ASCII host which the session
is connected to (A0-D7).
• IP Host : If a session is connected to an IP Host Class, then the Class Name is the Host
Identifier. Otherwise, the data entered at the “Connect To” prompt on the TCP/IP
Connection panel will be displayed as the Host Identifier.
