Inventu Viewer+ Configuration Management

For 5250 (AS400 / iSeries / IBM i) hosts, the host program can trigger an error condition while writing a message to the bottom of the screen.  In the original terminals, this locked the keyboard until the Reset key was pressed.  With the FVTerm emulator, by default the keyboard is locked by the error condition and display of the error message.

 

Set this to yes if you want the keyboard locked when an error condition is triggered by the host application.

 

Possible Values:

 

Checked step_default_24

An Error Message will Lock the keyboard--note that with newer versions, the RESET-PC function is mapped to the Left Control for 5250 connections making it easier to unlock the keyboard (previously needed to refresh the emulation display to unlock)

Un-Checked

Error conditions will not lock the keyboard automatically--the PC-Reset can still be used to clear the message at the bottom of the screen.

 

In a Profile, this value can be inherited from a linked, parent profile.  The Track Marks (step_inherited_24) will indicate if the value is default, from the parent Profile or unique to this profile.
