Display Operation
This chapter describes in detail the operation of the TN5250e display sessions.
The number of display sessions you configure is up to you, each with a different host if desired.
Configuration of the 2677e is accomplished either through the local Connection Manager, or remotely
using the I-O Configuration Utility. For information on using the Configuration Utility, refer to
page 17,
Configuring the 2677e using the Configuration Utility.
Multiple Sessions
The display station can have as many display sessions as you desire connected to the same or different
hosts. You can switch from one session to another as needed. This is helpful when a session is
inhibited, as you can change to another session and work on a different application. To switch between
sessions, use the key sequence of ALT- Esc or use the mouse and click on another TeemTalk session
at the bottom of the screen.
The display emulation and display ID of the current session is displayed in the tool bar at the bottom of
the screen, just above the start/ session bar.
Status Line Indicators
Across the bottom of the screen are a series of indicators that let you know what the status of the
display station and/or current session is. In normal operation the status line will look something like this:
The T indicates a terminal session and along with the solid block indicates the current session is
communicating with its host. The green light on the left indicates the session is active, if red, the session
is not connected. The IBM-3477-FC indicates the display emulation of the selected session. The
DSP2677A is the display ID on the host.
The highlighted TeemTalk button on the bottom row indicates which display session is showing on the
terminal.
The blue
A
indicates that Caps Lock is On. Clicking on the network connector displays the IP Address,
Subnet Mask and Gateway addresses. EN indicates the English language. Hover the mouse over the
time will display the day and date, clicking on the time will display the Certificates. Clicking the screen
ikon, will display the desktop.
