The emulator keyboard is designed to be similar to a traditional emulator. The alpha-numeric keys will follow the characters printed on your keyboard. The other keys work as follows:
Key |
TN3270 / TN5250 Action |
VTxxx Action |
Enter |
Submit the current screen with ENTER as AID |
In VT mode, will send text along with the CR (carriage return, ASCII 13) |
F1..F12 |
Submit the current screen with PF1 through PF12 as AID |
In VT mode, many F-keys have no meaning--very application dependent |
Shift-F1..F12 |
Submit the current screen with PF13 through PF24 as AID |
F-key 13-24 |
ESC |
Send a CLEAR key |
Sends the ESC key if in "send each keystroke mode" |
CursorUp |
Move the cursor in the emulator up one line |
Send all pended keystrokes and the "cursor up" command to the host |
CursorDown

CursorRight

Send-in the current keystrokes (flush)--useful when NOT in "send each keystroke mode" and an ENTER or TAB would not provide the correct effect. For example, when a single keystroke executes a Y/N or menu option.
