• For example, if a DNS name was entered at the “Connect To” prompt to connect to a
TCP/IP host, then the DNS name (truncated to 16 characters) will be displayed as the
Host Identifier.
• LAT Host : The Host Identifier is the LAT Service name to which the session is connected.
Session Auto Swap
When this option is Enabled, LINCS will automatically swap a user to their next available
session, when a communications reminder appears in the foreground session status line (and
the predefined amount of time has expired, as determined by an RPQ setting). For this feature
to work as intended, at least two sessions should be configured for the device.
Keyboard Tables
Toggle to select:
• Host Language (default) - Sets the keyboard table language to the language of the host
that the session is connected to. The host language is configured in the 3270 Host Profile
and/or ASCII Session Profile, depending upon the type of host session. The language
will be set to the host language upon POR of the device, when connecting to a host, and
when swapping sessions. If a session is not connected to a host upon POR, the keyboard
tables language will be set to the primary language until the session connects.
• Primary - The keyboard table language will be set to the primary language upon POR of
the device.
• Secondary - The keyboard table language will be set to the secondary language upon
POR of the device.
Connecting to a 3270 host does NOT affect the keyboard language when Primary or Secondary
is chosen.
When connecting to an ASCII host via LAT, TELNET, or ASYNC, the keyboard table language
and host translate table language will ALWAYS be the same. Both languages will be set to the
language specified in the ASCII Session profile. When pressing Exsel-L to toggle the keyboard
language, both languages will be set to the alternate language.
PC File Transfer
Options are: ENABLE or DISABLE
This configuration option determines the status of File Transfer after IML. If an attached
device is powered off and on, File Transfer is not affected.
PC File Transfer and Windowing cannot be used concurrently. For this reason, a hot key is
available (Alt X) to allow for quick entry or exit to File Transfer mode. If you wish to use
Windowing on a PC configured for file transfer, you must disable File Transfer by pressing
this key prior to selecting a windowing profile other than profile 0. To perform a File Transfer
operation, you must go back to profile 0 and reenable File Transfer by pressing the key again.
The Time of Day clock display is also not compatible with the PC File Transfer display.
When PC File Transfer is enabled, the Time of Day clock will not be displayed even if enabled.
