<h1 class="topictitle1">Using a display station</h1>
<div><p>You can read this topic for keyboard and display differences when
using a display station during a Telnet 3270 full-screen session.</p>
<div class="section"><p>When using a display station during a Telnet 3270 full-screen
session, you should be aware of keyboard and display differences. Other special
considerations for Telnet 3270 mode include the number of input fields, error
messages, and ending a session.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Specifying Keyboard and Character Sets</h4><p>The keyboard
language type you specify for your work station, using the keyboard language
type parameter on the STRTCPTELN command, must be the same as the keyboard
language type parameter of the remotely attached workstation. If you specify
a keyboard language type that does not match, some of the characters do not
display as expected.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">5250 and 3270 Keyboards</h4><p>The placement and function
of keys are different on the 5250 keyboard (3196G, 3180 Model 2, or 5291)
than on the 3278 keyboard.</p>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> For the Telnet client operating in a 3270
full-screen mode, the 3270 Clear function sets to the key sequence Shift-Cmd-Backspace
by default.</div>
<p>The System Operation for New Users book provides keyboard
differences for the following keyboards</p>
<ul><li>IBM-enhanced keyboard</li>
<li>122-key typewriter keyboard</li>
<li>5250 keyboard</li>
<li>Personal computer or personal computer IBM<sup>®</sup> AT<sup>®</sup> computer-style keyboard</li>
<li>Personal computer or personal computer AT 5250 style keyboard</li>
<li>IBM-enhanced personal computer keyboard</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Personal computer keyboards</h4><p>If your personal computer
uses the iSeries™ Access
for Windows<sup>®</sup> Workstation
Function (WSF), you can display the layout of your 5250 keyboard using the
Work Station Function Keys (WSFKEYS) command. You can alter the style using
the Configure Work Station Function (CFGWSF) command. These commands are discussed
in the 'Client Access/400 for DOS with Extended Memory Setup' book. If your
personal computer does not use the workstation function, refer to the appropriate
documentation for your emulator (for example, OS/2<sup>®</sup> CM/2) to view or change the keyboard
style.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">TN3270--Minus sign</h4><p>If you specified the value *YES
for the numeric lock keyboard parameter of the STRTCPTELN command, if you
are using a data entry keyboard, and if the cursor is located in a numeric-only
field, then complete these tasks to display a 5250 minus sign:</p>
<ol><li>Press the Num (Numeric) key.</li>
<li>Press the minus sign (-) key.</li>
</ol>
<p>To display a 3278 minus sign, press the minus sign key.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">TN3270--Page down and page up</h4><p>If the 3270 application
has a display that does not allow all the input data fields to be viewed,
use the 5250 Page Down and Page Up keys to enter data when the maximum number
of input fields on the display is exceeded.</p>
<p>You can also assign PF and
PA functions to the page keys by specifying their use on the STRTCPTELN command.</p>
<p>The
cursor always appears as an underline on both 5250 and 3270 displays.</p>
