Match iSeries system parameters for a 5494 connected by X.21

You must coordinate communications configuration parameters between the iSeries™ server and the 5494 remote controller that is connected by X.21. These parameters are described in the following table. Then the related fields and subfields from the 5494 configuration display are listed next. These values are followed by the iSeries configuration value and the matching 5494 value to be entered in the display subfield. You can coordinate these values automatically or manually. Pick one of these ways:

To automatically connect the iSeries server to a 5494 controller, you can use the automatic remote controller (QAUTORMT) system value.
To manually connect the iSeries server to a 5494 controller, use the following table.

For more information about configuring the 5494, see these books:

iSeries Prompt	iSeries Parameter	5494 Field	5494 Subfield	iSeries Value	5494 Value	Notes
Connection number	CNNNBR	15	-	-	-	Values specified for the iSeries CRTCTLAPPC command and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match. If the iSeries CRTCTLAPPC command specifies CNNNBR(*DC), the X.21 direct-call user facility must be used to make the connection.
Local location name	LCLLOCNAME	H1	1	-	-	Values specified for the iSeries CRTCTLRWS command and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match.
Remote control point name	RMTCPNAME	13	-	-	-	Values specified for the iSeries CRTCTLAPPC command and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match.
Remote network identifier	RMTNETID	11	3	-	-	Values specified for the iSeries CRTCTLAPPC and CRTCTLRWS commands and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match.
Remote location name	RMTLOCNAME	12	-	-	-	Values specified for the iSeries CRTCTLRWS command and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match.
Link type	LINKTYPE	AA	-	*X21	4	5494 configuration values must match the values specified for the LINKTYPE parameter on the CRTCTLAPPC command. Select 2 for X.21 network connections.
Station address	STNADR	2	-	-	-	Values specified in the iSeries controller description and for the 5494 Remote Control Unit must match. This value must also be specified as the last 2 digits of the iSeries EXCHID parameter.
