If you are familiar with emulation equipment, this chapter is designed to help you get up and running in a short amount of time. It describes how to do the hardware installation, software installation, and configuration setup in just a few steps each. CAUTION! The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is a static-sensitive device. Keep the Card in its protective bag until you are ready to install it. 2.1 Unpacking Check the package your Card was shipped in for water-related or shippingrelated damage; contact the carrier if you find any. The package should contain the following: • (1) 5250 Remote Emulator Card • (1) 3.5" software diskette • (1) copy of this manual Keep the original packaging in case you ever have to reship the card. If your system requires 5 1⁄4" diskettes, contact your supplier. 2.2 Installing the Hardware 1. Turn OFF the PC and any peripherals that might be attached to it. Unplug the PC’s power cord or power supply from the electrical outlet and (if possible) from the PC. CAUTION! Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its cables. 11 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD WARNUNG! Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der Netzstecker zu ziehen. 2. Disconnect the PC from its monitor and remove the PC’s cover. Locate an empty expansion slot and remove the slot’s cover (but keep the slot cover’s screw close by). Touch a grounded surface, other than the PC’s chassis to dissipate any static charge you might have built up, then carefully remove the 5250 Remote Emulator Card from its antistatic bag. 3. Grasp the 5250 Remote Emulator Card by its edges. If the Card’s factory-default I/O address 300 to 30F is available in your PC, go to Step 4. Otherwise, using a screwdriver, set the Card’s DIP switch for an unused I/O address (see Table 2-1 below). Table 2-1. Possible Settings of the Card’s DIP Switch Base I/O Address Used 300 to 30F* 310 to 31F 320 to 32F 340 to 34F 350 to 35F 360 to 36F 380 to 38F 3A0 to 3AF Switch-Position Number 1 2 3 4 ON ON ON ON ON ON OFF OFF ON ON ON OFF OFF OFF ON ON ON ON OFF ON ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF ON ON OFF ON ON ON * Factory-default setting 4. Press the card firmly into the expansion slot. Screw the slot cover’s screw back in. 5. Run the Card’s diagnostic program before you replace the PC’s cover: a) Plug in the monitor, keyboard, and power without replacing the PC’s cover, then turn ON the PC. (Be extremely careful while you do this.) b) At the first DOS prompt, go to the directory where you have the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software stored: Type the diskette12 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD drive letter followed by a colon and [ENTER] (if you are keeping it on a copy of the original diskette) or the hard-disk letter followed by a colon, a backslash, the subdirectory name, and [ENTER] (if you’re keeping it on the hard drive). c) At the next DOS prompt, run the Emulator’s diagnostic program by typing emdiag [ENTER] A copyright screen appears, prompting you to press [ENTER] to continue. Then a diagnostic screen appears, showing the PC I/O addresses the Card supports. Use the cursor to highlight the address you want to test-run, then press [ENTER]. d) If this test fails for the given address, there might be a conflict for that address that you’re not aware of. Check the address settings of the PC’s I/O components again, carefully, and try setting the Card to use a different address. If the test fails for any address you try, you probably have a bad Card. See Section 9.4. e) If this test is successful, the program prompts you to let it do a modem-loopback test. Select “N”; the program ends. 6. Use an appropriate cable to connect the 5250 Remote Emulator Card to a host’s communication port or to a modem: For local operation (direct connection to host): Across EIA RS-232D/CCITT V.24 interface: Cross-pinned DB44 male to DB25 female (product code EHN064-0020); Across CCITT X.21 interface: Cross-pinned DB44 male to DB15 female (product code EHN063-0020); Across CCITT V.35 interface: Cross-pinned DB44 male to 34-pin M-block male (product code EHN065-0020); For remote operation (connection to host across modem link): Across EIA RS-232D/CCITT V.24 interface: Straight-throughpinned DB44 male to DB25 female (product code EHN0610020); Across CCITT X.21 interface: Straight-through-pinned DB44 male to DB15 female (product code EHN060-0020); Across CCITT V.35 interface: Straight-through-pinned DB44 male to 34-pin M-block male (product code EHN062-0020); 7. Remote operation only: Follow the modem manufacturer’s instructions for installing and configuring the modem to perform synchronous communication over your type of telephone line. 13 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 8.

Select “Exit” to end the program, then press [ENTER] to return to the DOS prompt. 2.4 Starting Emulation To begin emulation with the default configuration, type cd 5251r [ENTER] em5251r [ENTER] To begin emulation with a non-default configuration file, type cd 5251r [ENTER] em5251r filename [ENTER] where filename is the name of the customized file. The sign-on screen will appear. If you chose the DOS startup as your Emulator Startup option, the DOS screen will appear, and you will need to hotkey to the host session. Refer to Section 7.4 for more information. 15 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 3. Introduction 3.1 General Overview Thank you for purchasing a 5250 Remote Emulator Card. We hope that the Card helps you meet all of your PC-to-twinax connectivity needs. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card brings the best of the twinax and PC worlds together by connecting your IBM® AS/400® or System/3X to a PC either directly or across a phone-line-plus-sync-modem SDLC link. The Card, which operates in DOS or Windows (under a DOS partition), lets your PC emulate (act like) any of several controllers or display stations and lets your PC’s printer emulate several types of system printers. At the time of this writing, it is the fastest card of its type on the market, capable of local operation at up to 64 kbps or remote operation at up to 128 kbps. It emulates a 5394 remote controller, which gives it the capability of working with PC Support software on the AS/400. The Card has 132-column capability and supports multiple languages. 3.2 Interfaces Supported The 5250 Remote Emulator Card supports these three interfaces: • EIA RS-232D, known internationally as V.24, is a standard for interfacing Data Terminal Equipment (DTEs) with Data Communications Equipment (DCEs) over short distances. • X.21 is a general purpose interface between DTEs and Data-CircuitTerminating Equipment (DCTs) for operating on synchronous Public Data Networks (PDN) that provide dialup and leased-line services for data communication. X.21 supports transmitting at speeds up to 64 Kbps to a maximum distance of 1000 meters (3280.8 feet). • V.35 is a high-speed interface. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card supports V.35 transmission at speeds up to 128 kbps (for remote applications) or up to 64 kbps (for local applications) to a maximum distance, depending on your data rate and the type of cable you use, of 600 to 1200 meters (1968.5 to 3937 feet). 16 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 3.3 The Rest of This Manual Chapters 4 and 5 of this manual will guide you through step-by-step installation procedures. Chapter 6 explains how to configure the Card. Once installed, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card can function without further operator intervention, but Chapter 7 includes details on all of the Card's operating functions and Chapter 8 explains the card’s more advanced features such as record/playback, macros, 3812/5219 printer emulation, escape commands, and command pass-through. If problems should arise at any time, Chapter 9 is a troubleshooting guide that might help you diagnose and possibly fix them. 17 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 4. Hardware Installation 4.1 System Requirements 4.1.1 PC REQUIREMENTS You must have these PC resources to use the 5250 Remote Emulator Card: • IBM PC, PC/XT™, AT®, 386, 486, or compatible personal computer that does not use the Micro Channel® Architecture • Floppy-diskette drive • DOS version 3.3 or higher • 225K of RAM + 11K per display session + 29K per printer session 4.1.2 HOST REQUIREMENTS You must have these host resources to use the 5250 Remote Emulator Card: • IBM System/34, /36, /38, or AS/400 • Synchronous communications port that supports the SDLC protocol 4.2 The Complete Package When you receive your Card, check the package it came in for water- or shipping damage; contact the carrier if you find any. The package should contain the following: • (1) 5250 Remote Emulator Card • (1) 3.5" software diskette • (1) copy of this manual Keep the original packaging in case the Card must be reshipped. If your system requires 5 1⁄4" diskettes, please contact your supplier. 18 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 4.3 Procedure for Hardware Installation CAUTION! The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is static-sensitive. Take the same precautions you would with any static-sensitive device. One such precaution is being aware that some elements of your work environment, such as carpeting, floor mats, dry air from winter heating, etc., can cause static buildup. To prevent a static discharge, touch a grounded surface, other than the PC’s chassis, before handling the Card. Do not touch any components on the Card’s surface, especially the microprocessor chips; handle the Card by the edges only. Follow these instructions to install the 5250 Remote Emulator Card in your PC: 1. Turn OFF and unplug the PC and all devices attached to it. CAUTION! Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its cables. WARNUNG! Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der Netzstecker zu ziehen. 2. Disconnect the PC from its monitor. If the monitor is sitting on top of the PC’s case, lift the monitor off and set it aside. 3. Follow the instructions in the PC’s manual for removing the PC’s cover. Set the cover aside and save the screws for reassembly. 4. Locate an empty expansion slot. Using a screwdriver (or, if necessary, a socket wrench), remove the slot’s cover. Keep the slot cover’s screw close by. 5. Touch a grounded surface such as the PC’s chassis to dissipate any static charge you might have built up, then carefully remove the 5250 Remote Emulator Card from its anti-static bag. 19 NAME 6. When you install the Card into the PC, it uses one of the PC’s I/O addresses. The Card is factory-preset to use the base I/O address of 300. Since two cards can’t share the same address (that could cause the PC to crash), you might need to change the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s address setting. If you do have to change this setting, go to the next step; if you don’t, go to Step 8. 7. Locate the DIP switch in the upper left-hand corner of the Card (see Figure 4-1 below). 1234 Figure 4-1. Location of the Card’s DIP switch. Using the screwdriver provided with your Card, set the DIP switch to select an unused I/O address (see Table 4-1 on the next page). Write down the address you’ve selected so that you’ll have it handy when you’re ready to do the software configuration. 8. Hold the card by its edges (do not touch the components or circuitry), and insert the card into the expansion slot. Firmly press the card into the PC motherboard’s socket connector. See Figure 4-2 on the next page. 9. Align the slot on the Card’s bracket with the hole you opened when you removed the expansion slot’s cover: Gently lift or press down on the end of the Card opposite the bracket and connector until the slot and hole are properly lined up. If they are not properly aligned, the card will not seat correctly in the PC and will not function properly. 20 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 4-1.

Run the Card’s diagnostic program before you replace the PC’s cover: a) Plug in the monitor, keyboard, and power without replacing the PC’s cover, then turn ON the PC. (Be extremely careful while you do this.) b) At the first DOS prompt, go to the directory where you have the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software stored: Type the diskettedrive letter followed by a colon and [ENTER] (if you are keeping it on a copy of the original diskette) or the hard-disk letter followed by a colon, a backslash, the subdirectory name, and [ENTER] (if you’re keeping it on the hard drive). c) At the next DOS prompt, run the Emulator’s diagnostic program by typing emdiag [ENTER] A copyright screen appears, prompting you to press [ENTER] to continue. Then, as shown in Figure 4-3 on the next page, a diagnostic screen appears, showing the PC I/O addresses the Card supports. Use the cursor to highlight the address the DIP switch is set for, then press [ENTER]. d) If this test fails for the given address, there might be a conflict for that address that you’re not aware of. Check the address settings of the PC’s I/O components again, carefully, and try setting the Card’s DIP Switch to a different address. If the test fails for several addresses, make sure the Card is seated properly. If the test fails for all the addresses you try, the slot it’s in might be defective; reinstall the Card in a diferent slot. If all addresses still fail, you probably have a bad Card. See Section 9.3. e) If this test is successful, the program prompts you to let it do a modem-loopback test. Go to the next step. 22 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD EM5251R Diagnostics Program Select address range that corresponds to the EM5251R Switch Setting 300-30F 310-31F 320-32F 340-34F 350-35F 360-36F 380-38F 3A0-3AF Menu Command Options: Change Option ← Select Options [ESC] Previous Screen 12.

The recom-mended initial setting is NRZI. This setting must match that of the host. • Interrupt Request Level: An IRQ (Interrupt Request) is a control signal sent by the emulator card to demand the PC’s attention. The Card supports IRQ levels 3, 4, 10, 11, and 15. If you’ve installed the Card in an 8-bit slot, use IRQ 3 or 4. If you’re running Windows, use IRQ 10, 11, or 15. NOTE PC adapter boards require a unique IRQ level. Make sure the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s IRQ level is not the same as the IRQ level of any other board in the same PC. • DMA Channel 1 and DMA Channel 3: By using DMA (Direct Memory Access) channels, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card can transmit data to the host at a higher data rate than 19,200 bps. If you select Disable, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card will not operate above 19,200 bps. NOTE Both channels should be enabled. Problems might occur if both are disabled. • Base I/O Address: This is the Card’s address in the PC’s I/O memory. The address you select here must match the one you set with the Card’s DIP switches during the hardware installation (see Section 4.3). Refer to page 16 for the list of addresses you can choose from. NOTE PC adapter boards require a unique I/O address. Make sure the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s I/O address is not the same as the I/O address of any other board in the same PC. • Baud Rate: The data rate at which the Card operates, measured in bits per second. Selecting Modem automatically sets the 5250 Remote Emulator Card to match the data rate of the attached modem. When you use a null-modem cable, manually select the data rate for the communications line. 6.3 Advanced Functions NOTE If you selected Option 3, Terminal Emulation and PC Support/400, at the Operating Environment setup screen (see Section 6.1.2), do not change any Advanced Functions; press [ESC] and skip ahead to Section 6.4. 37 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD For Windows applications, you must change the hotkey code (see Section 6.3.2); otherwise, only unique applications will require you to work with Advanced Functions (consult with your system operator before doing so).

Move the cursor to Status Attributes and press [ENTER]. Type in the hexadecimal value corresponding to your desired display-line status attributes. (If your monitor is a monochrome model, you can find the list of possible values in Table 6-2; if your monitor is a color model, the possible values are listed in Table 6-3.) NOTE The value you enter here is for the first display session. If you’re using a color monitor, the software automatically assigns each of the following sessions the correspondingly preceding character attribute. For example, if you select red text on a black background (hex value 04) for the first display session, the second session will have cyan text (03), the third session green text (02), and so on. • Field Attributes: Host systems use field attributes to identify different field types on the display screen. For example, a warning or message field on the screen might be flashing red, while the normal screen fields might be green. You can customize these field colors to suit your tastes or applications. When you select the Field Attributes option, a window appears on the screen showing the current field attributes (see Figure 6-8 on the next page and Tables 6-1 through 6-3 on the following two pages).

Type in the hex value for that field, then press [ENTER]. A “beep” will sound if you make an invalid choice. 2. Find the attribute you wish to assign to this field in Table 6-2 (if you have a monochrome monitor) or 6-3 (if you have a color monitor) on page 39. 3. Type in this value and press [ENTER]. Notice that the field assumes the attributes you’ve selected. 4. Continue to change attributes until you’re finished, then follow the directions on the screen to exit. • EBCDIC to ASCII: (This option is for advanced users only.) The character-code set used by the host (EBCDIC) is not compatible with that used by the PC (ASCII). To let both systems communicate, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software uses an EBCDIC-to-ASCII translation table. With this menu option, you can customize the table. For example, to force the “$” character to display as a “#” character, move the cursor to the EBCDIC to ASCII option and press [ENTER]. The translation table will appear. Change the table by first entering the EBCDIC code for a “$” character, which is 5B (see Appendix A for EBCDIC and ASCII tables). Second, enter the ASCII code for the character to be displayed; in this case, the ASCII code for the “#” character is 23. NOTE You might need to load a new code page into the PC for the desired character. • Cursor Type: Use this option to customize your cursor. Choose between 1 (blinking block), 2 (blinking overline), 3 (no cursor) or 4 (blinking underline). • Display Adaptor: Some monitors must change modes to display 132 columns, while other monitors may not support 132-column screens at all. If your monitor supports 132 columns, you must enter the “AL” value for the 132-column mode to enable 132-column display. (The AL value is listed in the video card’s manual as the MODE setting. For most cards, leave the “BL” value at 00.) Type in this value and press [ENTER]. (text continues on page 43) 40 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 6-1.

The Keyboard-Setup Menu. • Hot Key Code: The Hot Key Code is the series of keystrokes used to jump from a DOS session to a host session. The default is [ALT][ESC]. You can customize the hotkey code by pressing [ENTER] at this option. A new screen displaying the keyboard type will appear. Press the key you want to combine with [ALT] to form the hotkey, then press [ENTER]. 43 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD NOTE If you plan to customize the hotkey, be aware that the emulator cannot use any keys whose scan codes are higher than 57. NOTE For Windows, change the hotkey to [ALT][LEFT SHIFT]. This should be displayed as ALT <2A>. • Type Ahead: When Type Ahead is enabled, the PC will hold characters in its buffer. If the host is not ready to accept the characters, the PC will send the characters to the host when it is ready for input. • Scan Code Customize: The Scan Code Customize option lets you redefine how your keyboard’s keys/characters are represented as numbers for transmission to the PC (and to the host during host sessions). Each type of keyboard uses different scan codes to represent its keys. The keyboard type you select is used on all host sessions during emulation. Factory-default scan codes are shown in Appendix D. To change the keyboard scan codes, move the cursor to Scan Code Customize option and press [ENTER]. The screen then displays the keyboard layout. Follow the steps below to customize the keyboard: 1. Look at the keyboard layout, and determine the code of the key you want to change. At the prompt, below the keyboard layout, type in this code. 2. Press [ENTER] to display the key’s function. In place of the prompt, the function of the key is displayed in the Normal mode (pressed alone), the Shifted mode (pressed with the [SHIFT] key), and the Alt mode (pressed with the [ALT] key). The key’s Normal function is highlighted. 3. Use the up- and down-arrow keys ([≠] and [Ø]) to highlight the mode you want to change. Press [ENTER]. A list of all the keys appears in a window at the right of the screen. 4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the function in this window to assign to this key. (Use the Page Up [Pg Up] and Page Down [Pg Dn] keys to bring different sets of functions into this window.) Press [ENTER]. The window at the right of the screen disappears, and the keyboard-layout screen reappears. The new function you’ve assigned appears under the chosen mode for the chosen key. 44 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 5. Press [ESC] twice and you are prompted to save this keyboard file. Answer Y to save your changes or N to discard the changes. Press [ENTER] and then [ESC] to return to the Main Menu. 6.3.3 PRINTER SETUP Use the Printer-Setup Menu (shown in Figure 6-10 below) to create a special or unique printer configuration.

Find the “6 lpi” control codes in the LaserJet manual. 2. If the manual doesn’t report these codes in hexadecimal, translate the decimal codes to hex using Appendix B. 3. The HP LaserJet “6 lpi” control codes are: 46 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 027 038 108 054 068 Decimal 1B 26 6C 36 44 Hexadecimal Type in “05” to tell the software how many characters/codes long the sequence is, then type in the codes themselves, like this: 05 1B 26 6C 36 44 You don’t have to press [ENTER] when you finish; the software will automatically advance to the next line. Command-string sequences can be a maximum of fifteen (“0F”) characters/codes long. • EBCDIC to ASCII Translation: (This option is for advanced users only.) The character-code set used by the host (EBCDIC) is not compatible with that used by the printer (ASCII). To allow both systems to communicate, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software uses an EBCDIC-to-ASCII translation table. With this menu option, you can customize the table. For example, to force the “$” character to print as a “#” character, move the cursor to the EBCDIC to ASCII Translation option and press [ENTER]. The translation table will appear. Change the table by first entering the EBCDIC code for a “$” character, which is 5B (see Appendix B for EBCDIC and ASCII tables). Second, enter the ASCII code for the character to be displayed; in this case, the ASCII code for the “#” character is 23. • Code Page Selection (4214 only): The default code-page selection is Code Page 850. If the printer supports it, you can change to Code Page 437 by pressing [ENTER] at this field and selecting that page. Refer to the printer’s manual for information about the code page(s) the printer uses. NOTE When you change to Code Page 437, any changes made to the Code Page 850 character set will be lost, and vice versa. • CPT Delimiters: The 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s “command passthrough” feature lets the Card recognize printer-control commands and transparently pass them through to the printer. A two-character delimiter (the default setting is “&%”) signals the card to pass the command through. Select the new delimiter by typing the corresponding hexadecimal character codes (refer to Appendix B) in the spaces on the screen. See Section 8.4.3 for more information on the command pass-through feature. 47 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD • 17 to 15 Pitch Correction: Most PC printers do not support 15-pitch printing, but host systems use 15 pitch in many applications. If the printer supports 17 pitch and you would like to print 15 pitch, select this option by moving the cursor to the option and pressing [ENTER]. You will be prompted for the number of the printer session to modify. Be aware that your printer might print very slowly in 15 pitch. You can also be turn this option ON and OFF from the PrinterControl Screen (see Section 7.6.1). • Auto Printer Sharing: When Auto Printer Sharing is enabled, you can print from either the host or the PC. Like pitch correction, you can turn this option ON and OFF from the Printer-Control Screen (see Section 7.6.1). NOTE DOS print jobs will only print during DOS sessions. If you hotkey to a host session while printing a DOS job, printing will be suspended until you return to the DOS session. • Orientation (3812 only): Use this option to select the default print orientation. Your choices are Computer Output Reduction (COR), Portrait, or Landscape. You will be prompted for the number of the printer session to modify. • APO (3812 only): Use this option to enable or disable Automatic Page Orientation. When enabled together with COR orientation (see the preceding paragraph), landscape orientation will be automatically selected if the page is wider than it is high. Portrait will be selected if the paper is higher than it is wide. (See Section 8.2 for more information.) You will be prompted for the number of the printer session to modify. • Paper Size: Use this option to select the size of paper used in the printer as follows: Normal: Letter size: 8.5 x 11 in. (216 x 280 mm) or Legal size: 8.5 x 14 in. (216 x 356 mm) A4: A4 size: 8.27 x 11.69 in. (210 x 297 mm) No Size: Whatever size is loaded in the printer You will be prompted for the number of the printer session to modify. 48 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 6.4 PC Support/400 If PC Support/400 was selected for installation, the adapter-handler screen will appear (as shown in Figure 6-11 below) and will prompt you to enter the correct path for PC Support (this is required for PC Support/400 only).

For example, press and hold the [ALT] key and press the [ESC] key (or press the custom hotkey sequence you chose during the configuration—see Section 6.3.2) to move from a DOS session to a host session. 52 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD There are two major hotkey sequences, Direct Access and Round-Robin: • Direct Access: This key sequence moves directly to a host session. (To be used, this sequence must be enabled during configuration— see Section 6.2.2.) For example, to move to host session 1, press and hold [ALT] and press [1]; to move to session 2, press and hold [ALT] and press [2], etc. To return to DOS, press and hold [ALT] and press [0] or [8]. If an unconfigured session is pressed, the next available session will become active. [ALT][2] Host Session 7 Host Session 2 [ALT][7] • Round-Robin: This key sequence moves sequentially through the available sessions as illustrated below. Starting at the current session, this sequence advances to the highest session and then to DOS. From DOS, this sequence continues back to the lowest session. (The printercontrol screen is the printer session.) To use this method, press and hold [ALT] and press [ESC] (or the customized sequence—see Section 6.3.2). Host Session [ALT] [ESC] PrinterControl Screen [ALT] [ESC] DOS Session 7.3.2 WINDOWS HOTKEY SEQUENCES Different sequences allow you to jump between applications and sessions while in Windows. • Round-Robin (Scrolling) through Applications: Starting at a currently active emulation, press [ALT] and then [TAB] to scroll through the active applications. This sequence advances to each of the currently active applications. 53 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Emulation [ALT] [TAB] Application [ALT] [TAB] Program Manager • Round-Robin (Scrolling) through Sessions: You can also scroll through active applications by pressing [ALT][SHIFT]; you must press [ENTER] to activate the application. Also use [ALT][SHIFT] (or the customized hotkey—see Section 6.3.2) instead of [ALT][ESC]to change sessions while in an emulation window, as shown below; or use the direct-access sequences [ALT][1], [ALT][2], etc., as described in the previous section. Host Session [ALT] [SHIFT] PrinterControl Screen [ALT] [SHIFT] DOS Session 7.4 Status Line During emulation, the bottom line of the screen is the session-status line. It displays information sent from the host, identifies which host address and session are currently being accessed, and highlights other information regarding the active sessions. See Table 7-1, below, for a list of the statusline abbreviations and their meanings. A status abbreviation is active when highlighted. 54 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 7-1. Status-Line Abbreviations Abbreviation Meaning (When Highlighted) rr-cc CURSOR LOCATION (rr = row, cc = column): Identifies the cursor location by row and column. SA SYSTEM AVAILABLE: The host system is communicating with the active session. MWn MESSAGE WAITING: A message from the host system is waiting for the active session. n is the number of the session the message is waiting for. KS KEYBOARD SHIFT: Keyboard shift is active. IM INSERT MODE: The LU session is in insert mode. II INPUT INHIBITED: Keyboard is locked, either because the host system has not completed a previous command, or there is a pending error condition. KB KEYBOARD BUFFERING: Highlighted when there are keystrokes waiting to be sent to the host. Sn LOGICAL UNIT: Where n is the active logical session or unit that is active. An HOST ADDRESS: Where n is the host address. 7.5 Printing Printing from either DOS or host applications on the attached printer is a standard feature. To print from DOS, use either the DOS print command or print through a software program. When printing host jobs, specify the attached printer’s host ID. This lets the host route the print job to the proper printer. The system operator will assign an ID to the attached printer when configuring the printer on the host. 55 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 7.5.1 THE PRINTER-CONTROL SCREEN The Printer-Control Screen controls host printing sent to the attached printer. The PC is unaware that printing is taking place, even in a DOS session, host printing can continue without interruption. However, DOS printing does not continue in a host session. Certain printer functions are controlled from the Printer-Control Screen. While in emulation, hotkey to the session assigned to the printer. The Printer-Control Screen will appear; it’s divided into three (3) sections, as shown in Table 7-2 on the next page and described on pages 57 through 59. Table 7-2.

TRUNCATE/WRAP-AROUND: In truncate mode, narrowcarriage printers ignore data beyond 8” (80 columns). In wrap mode, the data prints on the next line. LINE FEED: Each time the [F3] key is pressed, the paper in the printer will advance one line. FORM FEED: The paper advances to the top of the next page and resets the line and column counts to one. CANCEL PRINTER JOB: Sends a cancel request to the System/3X host. This will not cancel data already in the printer buffer. USER CONTROL OF PITCH, PRINT QUALITY AND LINE SPACING: Defines the pitch, printer quality and line spacing for the attached PC printer. Host commands which alter these values are ignored. HOST CONTROL OF PITCH, PRINT QUALITY AND LINE SPACING: With this enabled, host commands control pitch, print quality, and line spacing. RE-INITIALIZE PRINTER: Returns to the original printer configuration. BUFFER PRINT: Prints host commands for diagnostics. This is referred to as a “hex dump.” ASSIGN PRINTER TO DOS/HOST/AUTO: Prints only DOS jobs when DOS is highlighted, only host jobs when Host is highlighted, or automatically selects from host or DOS when Auto is highlighted. Shifts from 17- to 15-pitch printing (5219 and 3812 emulations do not support this function). Only affects dotmatrix printers. 57 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 2 Section 2 of the Printer-Control Screen shows host- and PC-printer status. These indicators highlight important information regarding the printer’s status when it is assigned to either the host or the PC. For descriptions of these messages, see the “Printer is attached to” paragraph below, Table 7-4 below, and Table 7-5 on the next page. Printer is attached to: Indicates which system is in control of the printer: the host, DOS, or auto. When Host is highlighted, print jobs can be sent from the host to the PC printer. When DOS is highlighted, the printer will not accept print jobs from the host, but a PC print job can print. When Auto is highlighted, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card automatically switches from host to PC printing and vice versa without going back to the printer-control screen (although DOS print jobs will print only during a DOS session). The screen will highlight the current setting of this option in reverse video. Table 7-4. Indicators of Host-Printer Status Status Message Indicated Condition (When Highlighted) READY The printer is ready to receive data. SYSTEM AVAILABLE The host system is operational. CHECK PRINTER An error condition, such as a paper jam or out of paper, has been detected by the printer.

Advanced Features The 5250 Remote Emulator Card has some unique features that come in handy with certain applications that require extra productivity tools. These added features include Record/Playback, 3812 printer emulations, 5219 printer emulations, a special command language, and command pass-through. 8.1 Record/Playback With the Record/Playback feature, you can record a sequence of keystrokes and play them back later by pressing only three keys, which cuts down on repetition. Use these keys to control the Record/Playback feature: Keystroke Function [ALT][F10]Record a sequence of keystrokes (functions as the key on a 5250 keyboard) [ALT][F8] Playback a sequence of keystrokes (functions as the key on a 5250 keyboard) [ALT][F7] Delete a recorded keystroke sequence [ALT][F9] Clear all recorded keystroke sequences 8.1.1 RECORDING A SEQUENCE To record a keystroke sequence, follow these steps: 1. Press and hold the [ALT] key, then press [F10] to enter Record mode. A blinking R appears in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. The number to the right of the blinking R is the number of keystrokes available for recording (maximum of 1,000). 2. Press the key (any of [F1] through [F10] or [0] through [9]) to assign as the “trigger key” for the recorded sequence. (You might want to write down each “trigger key” and its associated sequence in the NOTES pages at the end of this manual.) 3. Type the keystroke sequence to be recorded. 4. When the keystroke sequence is completed, press [ALT][F10] again to save the sequence and exit the Record mode. 61 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 5. To permanently save a recorded sequence to the PC’s hard disk, hotkey to DOS, then go to the drive and directory where the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software is stored. Type SAVEKEYS and press [ENTER]. A message will appear indicating that the recorded keys have been saved. (Each time you start emulation, SAVEKEYS.DAT will be loaded so the saved keystroke sequences can be used.) 8.1.2 PLAYING A RECORDED SEQUENCE Follow these steps to play back a recorded sequence: 1. Press [ALT][F8] to enter Play mode. A blinking P appears in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. 2. Press the “trigger key” (any of [F1] through [F10] or [0] through [9]) assigned to the recorded sequence you want to play back. 3. The playback begins at the cursor location. When it ends, Play mode is automatically exited. 8.1.3 DELETING A SEQUENCE To delete a recorded sequence, press [ALT][F7]. A blinking D appears in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. Press the “trigger key” (any of [F1] through [F10] or [0] through [9]) assigned to the recorded sequence you want to delete, and the sequence will be deleted. 8.1.4 CLEARING ALL SEQUENCES To clear all currently recorded keystroke sequences, press [ALT][F9]. A prompt in the lower left-hand corner of the screen asks, “Clear All (Y/N)?” To clear all the recorded sequences, press Y. 8.2 3812 Printer Emulation The 5250 Remote Emulator Card lets a local (attached to the PC) laser printer that supports HP or PPDS modes emulate the IBM 3812 (nonIPDS) printer. The 3812 printer provides font-changing capability, text rotation, compression features called Computer Output Reduction (COR), and Automatic Page Orientation (APO). The 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s 3812 printer emulation provides font changes and a true 3812 COR emulation. It also obeys host commands for duplexing like the IBM 3816 printer. 62 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD The system operator will specify a default font ID when configuring the 3812 address on the host system. The default font ID should be the most commonly used typestyle. The system operator should select one of the typestyle numbers from the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C with an asterisk (*) indicating the default font ID, then change it in the document, as necessary. 8.2.1 DATA PROCESSING To change font IDs for a data-processing report, add the font number to the CL or OCL printer statement (for the System/36, convert the font number to hexadecimal before adding it to the printer statement). Only the font IDs marked with an asterisk (*) in the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C can be used in host-printer statements. The 3812’s COR feature rotates data-processing reports to landscape orientation and compresses the text to fit 198 columns x 66 lines on the page. The steps below describe printing using the COR feature. Refer to Figure 8-1 on page 66. 1. If a Set Text Orientation (STO) command is specified, the report prints using the STO command to control orientation in the specified font. If an STO command is not specified, the report continues to block 2. 2. If APO is enabled (see Section 6.3.3), the report continues to block 3. With APO disabled, the report continues to block 4. 3. At block 3, the page size is calculated. If the page size is valid (8 1/2" x 14" or smaller) the report continues to block 6; the report prints at block 6 depending upon the page layout. An invalid page size (larger than 8 1/2" x 14") causes the report to continue to block 4. 4. At block 4, the orientation selected in the configuration program determines the output. If landscape is selected, the report prints in landscape using the specified font. If portrait is selected, the report prints in portrait using the specified font. 5. A COR override from the host determines the report orientation. Host COR overrides include: System/36 OCL: Text-Yes or Rotate-0 System/38 CL: PRT QLTY (*STD) or (*NLQ), or PGRTT(0) AS/400: PRT QLTY (*STD) or (*NLQ) and PAGRTT (*COR) 63 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD A host COR override causes the report to print in portrait with the selected font. If the host does not override the COR, the report prints in landscape orientation with the CPI and LPI reduced as shown in Figure 8-1. The printer prints a maximum of 182 columns x 64 lines (IBM PPDS mode) or 198 columns x 66 lines (HP mode) when you use COR to control the output. 64 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD START Page Orientation Logic 1 Set Text Orientation (Rotation) YES USE STO COMMAND NO 2 NO APO Off Automatic Print Orientation YES APO On 3 NO Is Page Size Valid?

The decision-making process for page orientation. 65 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 8.2.2 WORD PROCESSING When the system operator configures the printer on the host, a default font ID is configured for the printer, which should be the most commonly used font. The WP program may also have a default font ID. Since the default font ID can vary depending on the system setup, ask your system operator if you have questions about the default font ID. To change the font, either use the font-change commands in the Card’s command language, or select a font ID number within the word processing program. Refer to the WP program’s manual for information on changing font IDs within the program. See Section 8.4.3 for information on fontchange commands for word-processing documents. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card allows bolding, underlining, and super/subscripting by recognizing the host commands for these features in both WP and DP applications. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card uses a shadow print for bolding, even on small and italic fonts. 8.2.3 PAGE LENGTH The printer prints up to 66 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing may be compressed slightly to fit), or 64 lines at 6 LPI in IBM PPDS mode, on each page of 8.5" x 11" letter-size paper. The System/36 only allows 65 lines per page on 8.5" x 11" letter-size paper. The printer prints up to 72 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing may be slightly compressed to fit) or 70 lines at 6 LPI in IBM PPDS mode on each page of 8.27" x 11.69" A4 size paper. 8.2.4 PAPER SIZE Configure the printer setup on Card for the paper size used most. The Card only recognizes these paper sizes: Letter Paper: 8.5" x 11" (216 x 280 mm) Legal Paper: 8.5" x 14" (216 x 356 mm) A4 Paper: 8.27" x 11.69" (210 x 297 mm) If you choose any other paper dimensions in the word-processing program, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card ignores them and uses the previous paper-size choice. The “No Paper Size” selection uses the paper installed in the tray, regardless of the paper’s size. 8.2.5 BIN SELECTION The 5250 Remote Emulator Card selects paper from bin 2 only if the optional paper tray is installed in the printer. If bin 2 or 3 is chosen in a host document, the printer will print from bin 1 unless the optional paper tray is installed. 66 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 8.2.6 DUPLEX PRINTING The AS/400 will only recognize duplexing in word processing. To access duplexing in data processing, type one of these commands from the Card’s command language into the first line of the document. ¬D0 for simplex printing ¬D1 for landscape duplex printing ¬D2 for portrait duplex printing Refer to Section 8.3.6 for more information. 8.2.7 DOCUMENT/ENVELOPE PRINTING Print a letter and an envelope from DisplayWrite/36 or AS/400 Office in the same document by following this procedure: 1. Set the format for the letter, and enter the letter file. On the first typing line, press [CMD20] for “Change Format.” 2. Select 1 for “Entire Document Options.” 3. Select 1 for “Document Format.” 4. Select 3 for “Typestyle/Color,” type in the font ID Number for the letter (such as No. 11, 86, etc.), then press [ENTER]. 5. From the Document Format screen, select option 4 for “Page Layout/Paper Options.” Scroll to the second screen of these options and select a paper size and a paper source. If the letter is more than one page, select the same paper source for the following pages. Press [ENTER] to return to the Document Format screen. 6. Press [CMD12] to return to the Document Options screen. 7. You can now set up the alternate format for the envelope. Select 2 for “Alternate Format.” 8. Select 3 for “Typestyle/Color.” Type in a font ID for the envelope, such as 5, and press [ENTER] to return to the Alternate Format screen. 9. Select 4, “Page Layout/Paper Options.” Type in a “first typing line” of 11, then scroll down to the second screen of the options; choose a paper width of 7.5 (monarch size) or 9.5 (commercial, #10 size) and a paper length of 4 inches. 67 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 10. For a paper source, select 5 for “Envelope Feed.” Press [ENTER] to return to the Alternate Format screen. 11. Select option 1 for “Margins and Tabs” and type in a left margin of 40. Press [ENTER]. 12. Press [CMD3] to return to the document. 13. Type in the text. When you finish, add in a “page end” by pressing [ALT][P]. 14. Now load in the alternate format for the envelope. To do this, press the [CMD5] key, “Goto,” and type “rf” (Resetting Format). Press [ENTER]. 15. Select option 4 on the Alternate Format screen, “Begin Alternate Format.” Press [ENTER]. 16. The document will now be displayed with the alternate format. The cursor will be on the first typing line with a left margin of 40. 17. Type in the envelope address and send the file to print. The letter will print out first, then the envelope. NOTE The printer may eject a blank page when changing printing orientation. If the Buffer light and Ready light remain steady, press the Print/Check button on the printer’s operator panel to eject the last page. The System/38 only sends margins and other format specifications to a printer when they are different from the previous documents or when the printer has been turned OFF. To choose a different paper size: 1. Select a paper size in the program. 2. Insert paper of the correct size into the printer. 3. Power the printer OFF for about five seconds, then power it back ON again. 4. Release the job for printing from the host. 68 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 8.3 5219 Printer Emulation The 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s 5219 emulation is for LaserJet printers. The HP LaserJet printer file is automatically used when 5219 emulation is selected. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card allows bolding, underlining, and super/subscript by recognizing the host commands for these features for DP or WP applications. The different character styles and pitch are controlled through the IBM typestyle number or font ID. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card uses the IBM typestyle number to select an HP font from a cartridge. The cartridges shown in the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C are the only fonts supported. The system operator will specify a default font ID when configuring the 5219 on the host system, which should be the font ID most commonly used. Select one of the font-ID numbers from the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C with an asterisk (*) indicating the default font ID, then change it as necessary in the DP or WP document. If data-processing reports are sent to the printer, typestyles in the printer’s CL or OCL statement must be changed. 8.3.1 DATA PROCESSING Condensed print and “8 lpi” commands do not work in data-processing documents, because 5219 printers only understand font-ID commands. For DP documents, such as RPG-generated printouts, the Card uses the system-default typestyle unless you change the fonts by specifying the typestyle in the OCL or CL printer statement. Since the host only accepts certain fonts in OCL and CL statements, you can use only the font IDs marked with an asterisk (*) from the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C. To change typestyles in DisplayWrite/36, use one of the following commands: [CMD20], selection No. 1, “Document Option” [CMD20], selection No. 4, “Display Current Format” [CMD9], selection No. 7, “Change Font” See the DisplayWrite® user’s guide for more information on changing typestyles. 8.3.2 WORD PROCESSING When you configure a 5219 address on the host, you must select a default font ID. The normal value is 11 (or 0B in hex), which is a 10-pitch font. 69 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD There are two ways to change fonts for word-processing documents: either select a typestyle within the word-processing program or use a fontchange command from the Card’s command language in the document. The word-processing program’s manual should describe how to change the typestyles within the program. Some word-processing programs, such as Text Management/38, do not allow more than one typestyle number per line of text. In such cases, use the font-change commands in the Card’s command language (see Section 8.4.1). 8.3.3 PAGE LENGTH The 5219 emulation allows 65 lines per page at 6 LPI for word-processing documents and 66 lines per page at 6 LPI for data-processing documents. The HP LaserJet printer allows a maximum of 63 lines per page at 6 LPI. To print 65 lines, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card increases line spacing from 6 lines per inch to about 6.25 lines per inch. This small change is normally not noticeable. A similar small change is made to 8-LPI printing on 8.5" x 11" letter size paper. The printer prints up to 72 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing may be slightly compressed to fit), or 70 lines at 6 LPI in IBM mode, on each page of 8.27" x 11.69" A4 size paper. 8.3.4 PAPER SIZE Configure the printer setup on the Card for the paper size used most. The Card only recognizes these paper sizes: Letter Paper: 8.5" x 11" (216 x 280 mm) Legal Paper: 8.5" x 14" (216 x 356 mm) A4 Paper: 8.27" x 11.69" (210 x 297 mm) If you choose any other paper dimensions in the word-processing program, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card ignores them and uses the previous paper-size choice. The “No Paper Size” selection uses the paper installed in the tray, regardless of the paper’s size. Selecting legal or A4 size paper dimensions on the DisplayWrite/36 “Change Page Format” screen causes the LaserJet display window to flash “Legal Paper.” If the paper dimensions specified are different from letter, legal, or A4, the paper size is unchanged. In Text Management/38, the System/38 does not send paper dimensions to the printer. Instead, it sends a forms message for legal paper to the controlling workstation assigned to the printer. To change the paper tray, take these steps: 70 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 1. Insert a paper tray of the proper size and press the printer’s RESET button. 2. Power the printer OFF and back ON. 3. Release the print job at the host. The System/38 uses a “Printer Support Facility” that sends the margins and other document-form specifications to a printer only when these are different from the previous document or when the printer has been turned OFF. Either way, the LaserJet must be reset when a different paper tray is installed. The line-format screens in DisplayWrite/36 (Command 20) also permit “Justify,” which aligns the right margin. “One-Half Justify” causes only one-half as much alignment of the right margin. For best results in using justification, change the zone width from “6” to “1.” 8.3.5 ENVELOPE PRINTING To print envelopes, specify typestyle number 5, landscape orientation, with the first line of the address on line 30 and a left margin of 55. A trial run with a blank sheet of paper will often help identify an error in positioning the address. Manual Feed: Select the “Envelope Feed” option in the word-processing program’s paper-feed selections and a paper size of 11" x 11". The printer will flash “Manual Feed” on the front-panel display window. Manually feed the envelope into the printer. Envelope Tray: Select “Envelope Feed” and a paper size of 7.5" or 9.5" (or 22 cm). The printer automatically finds the envelope tray (if this has been installed) and prints the envelope. Envelope Feeder: Select “Envelope Feed” and a paper width of 7.5" o 9.5" (or 22 cm). The printer automatically finds the envelope feeder (if this has been installed) and prints the envelope. NOTE The LaserJet may eject a blank page when you change print orientation. 8.3.6 DUPLEX PRINTING Some LaserJet models can print both simplex (single sided) and duplex (double sided); for that matter, they can print both long-edge (landscape) and short-edge (portrait) duplex. However, changing the printer’s simplex/ duplex mode through its front panel can be time consuming. Instead, place printing commands on the first line of the document to control simplex, landscape-duplex, and portrait-duplex printing. Enter one 71 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD of these commands from the Card’s command language on the first line of the document: ¬D0 for simplex printing ¬D1 for landscape-duplex printing ¬D2 for portrait-duplex printing If they are not on the first line, the commands will not become active until the following page. When the printer receives the printing command, it will do all printing in that mode until another printing command is received. In other words, if the printer is most often in simplex mode and is printing in the duplex mode, be sure to put a simplex command at the end of the document to return the printer to simplex mode. Envelope printing between documents won’t change the printer’s mode. On some duplex printing, if the last page is blank on the back side, the information for the last page may remain in the printer until the next printing job is received. To print the last page, take the printer off-line by pressing the ONLINE button, then press the FORM FEED button to print the last page. Put the printer back on-line by pressing the ONLINE button again. NOTE Duplexing is supported in word-processing applications on the AS/400, but the AS/400 does not support duplex printing for data processing. 8.4 The Command Language The 5250 Remote Emulator Card responds to a command language that consists of special character sequences you can place in your documents. The Card recognizes these sequences and sends corresponding codes to the printer to control the printer’s output. You can use these commands in either data-processing or word-processing documents. The Card’s command language consists of three types of commands: font-change commands, escape commands, and command-pass-through commands. These are described in the next three sections. 8.4.1 FONT-CHANGE COMMANDS To change fonts using font-change commands, type the font-change command into the document at the place where the font change is to take effect. The command is immediately active in the document; the Card prints the specified font until it encounters the next font-change command. 72 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD For example, when the ProCollection® cartridge is loaded in the printer, the codes embedded in the following sentence will cause the word “saves” to print in bold Helvetica® instead of plain Courier: On screen: Quality ¬Q45 saves ¬Q85 you time and money. Prints as: Quality saves you time and money. NOTE The host may send the original font code to the printer at the beginning of each page. If this happens, put a font-change command at the beginning of each page of the document. If the font-change command changes the pitch, the host may continue to format each line with the original font-ID pitch. Text Management/38 and some other word-processing programs don’t let you specify more than one font ID per line. Font IDs and font-change commands for the fonts and font cartridges used by the 3812 and 5219 printer emulations are listed in Appendix C. Format font-change commands this way: • 3812 Printer Emulation: Enter font-change commands for 3812 emulation using the format ¬Qn, where ¬ is a “logical not” (Shift 6), Q indicates a font change, and n is the typestyle number (font ID). • 5219 Printer Emulation: Enter either of two types of font-change commands that you can use with 5219 emulation: ¬QHL selects fonts from HP font cartridges: ¬ is a “logical not” (Shift 6), Q indicates a font change, H indicates the HP font cartridge, and L is one or more uppercase letters that indicate a particular font in the cartridge; ¬QIn selects fonts from IBM font cartridges: ¬ is a “logical not” (Shift 6), Q indicates a font change, I indicates the IBM font cartridge, and n is the typestyle number (font ID). 8.4.2 ESCAPE COMMANDS You can also insert commands into your document that perform other functions, such as enabling true 6-LPI printing, causing the Card to ignore format commands from the host, and sending the printer an ASCII ESC command. These commands, shown below, are similar to the font-change commands. 73 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Command Function ¬Ex only). ¬TY ¬TN ¬I ¬S host. Sends an ASCII ESC command to the printer (HP mode Forces true 6-LPI printing (HP mode only). Stops forcing true 6-LPI printing (HP mode only). Makes Card ignore all formatting commands from the host. Makes Card stop ignoring formatting commands from the You can send an ESC (escape) print-control command to the printer with the ¬Ex command (HP mode only); x stands for a sequence of characters that forms the rest of the command. For example, ¬E(s3B would begin bold printing; see an HP operator’s manual for a list of the (sXX commands. When in HP mode, the printer may compress line spacing to fit 66 lines onto a page. This might be undesirable at times, especially with preprinted forms that must align correctly. In these cases, the ¬TY command prevents the printer from compressing the line spacing, and ¬TN permits it again. Use the ¬I and ¬S commands to remove unwanted host commands from a print file. For example, when you print with forms-generating software, the host recognizes the files as text files and formats them with unwanted carriage returns and line feeds. Placing the ¬I at the end of a line and ¬S at the start of the next line causes the 5250 Remote Emulator Card to remove the host’s carriage returns and line feeds and send only the data to the printer. 8.4.3 COMMAND PASS-THROUGH The command-pass-through (hex-transparency) feature gives you access to all of a printer’s built-in features, even if these features are not normally available through the host software. With the command-pass-through feature, you can place printer-specific command sequences into your document, and the 5250 Remote Emulator Card will recognize the sequences and “pass the commands through” to the printer. Take these steps to use this feature:. 1. Find the command (control codes) for your desired print feature in the printer’s manual. 2. Convert the control codes to hexadecimal. 3. Type the delimiter &% (or any custom delimiter configured as described in Section 6.3.3) into the document at the point in the text 74 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD where the feature is to take effect. Type in the “turn feature ON” printer command, then type in the delimiter again. No spaces are allowed. 4. Move the cursor to the point in the text that you want to end the print feature. Type in the delimiter, followed by the “turn feature OFF” printer command, and then the delimiter again. Again, no spaces are allowed. For example: If [ESC][E] turns bold printing ON and [ESC][F] turns bold printing OFF, first convert [ESC][E] to the hexadecimal 1B45 ([ESC] = “1B” and [E]= “45”) and [ESC][F] to 1B46. Then insert the commands into the text like this: This is a &%1B45&%bold&%1B46&% word. The above sentence will print on the printer as: This is a bold word. NOTES Spaces are not allowed between the delimiter and the hex code. Only hexadecimal digits (the numbers 0 through 9 and the letters A through F) may appear between delimiters. Errors in the command-pass-through sequence will cause the 5250 Remote Emulator Card to ignore the command and resume printing at the point the error occurred. Command pass-through may invalidate horizontal spacing. 75 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 9. Troubleshooting The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is designed for easy installation and reliable operation. However, as with all electronic equipment, difficulties can arise. This chapter is intended to help you diagnose and solve these problems. When trouble does crop up, the cause frequently turns out to be host configuration, emulator configuration, or modem settings. The devices emulated by the 5250 Remote Emulator Card must be recognized by the host, so make certain the configuration of the emulation software matches that of the host. Make sure the modem settings match the type of network the emulator is operating with. If this doesn’t solve the problem, take these steps: 1. Verify that all of the installation steps have been completed (see Chapters 4 and 5). 2. Run the Card’s diagnostic program. 3. Write down any error messages displayed or strange system-operating quirks you observe. 4. Try to find the problem and its solution in Sections 9.1 through 9.3. 5. If you’re still stuck, contact your supplier. Go to Section 9.4. 9.1 Common Concerns PC does not power ON. Cause: Action: Power cord not plugged in. Make sure the power cord is plugged into both the power outlet and the back of the PC. Cause: Action: Faulty cord or power outlet. Try another cord or outlet. Cause: Action: No power connections inside PC. Check power connections inside the PC that might have been disconnected during installation of the 5250 Remote Emulator Card. 76 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Graphics characters or blinking characters appear on the screen. Cause: Action: Cause: Action: Cause: Action: 5250 Remote Emulator Card not seated properly. Unplug the PC, open it, and check the installation of the 5250 Remote Emulator Card. I/O-address conflict. Check the addresses of all other cards in the PC (referring to those cards’ manuals if necessary). If one of the other cards is using the same address as the 5250 Remote Emulator Card, you must change one of the two cards’ addresses. Cable-address conflict. Make sure the cable-address settings on the host and in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software match (see Section 6.2.1). Improper keystrokes or no keystrokes appear on the screen. Cause: Action: PC’s keyboard loose or unplugged. Make sure the keyboard cable is tightly connected at both ends. Cause: Action: Host inhibited. Check the II indicator on the host session’s status line. Cause: Action: Wrong keyboard emulation. Make sure the right keyboard emulation (PC or 5250) is selected in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s configuration (see Section 6.2.2). Cursor appears at the top left corner of the screen when emulation starts. Cause: Action: Invalid station address. Check the station addresses on the host and in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s configuration (see Section 6.2.1). Cause: Action: Unanswered messages at the host. Check the host console for unanswered messages. 77 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Cursor appears at the top right corner of the screen when emulation starts. Cause: Action: Invalid station address. Check the station addresses on the host and in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s configuration (see Section 6.2.1). Cause: Action: Damaged cabling or connections. Make sure that no cables are broken and that all cable connections are tight. Substitute another cable if necessary. “Snow” appears on the screen. Cause: Action: Wrong monitor type. Select Color (IBM) monitor type in the configuration program (see Section 6.2.2) Printer does not work. Cause: Action 1: Action 2: Printer not configured or configured incorrectly. Make sure that the printer emulation matches the emulation on the host (see Section 6.2.1). Make sure the printer is configured on the host and in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s configuration (see Section 6.3.3). Cause: Action: Invalid cable address. Make sure the cable-address settings on the host and in the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software match (see Section 6.2.1). Cause: Action: Printer is off line. Make sure the printer is on line and has paper. Send a print screen from DOS to see if the printer is communicating with the PC. No host communication—emulator will not come on line or cannot be varied on. Cause: 78 Communication line to/from host not operating properly. 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Action: Contact the system operator; he or she might need to IPL the host. Make sure the host/modem cable is attached to the emulator. If you can’t find the problem on the premises at either end, have the telephone company check the line. Cause: Action: SDLC encoding not set properly. The host’s and emulator’s encoding settings must match: either both NRZ or both NRZI. If you’re unsure what the host’s setting is, change this setting on the emulator (see Section 6.2.4) and try to bring it on line again. Cause: Action: Either host or Card is configured incorrectly. Make sure the host is configured for the emulator, that the emulator address is correct at the host, and that the host configuration and the local configuration match. Cause: Action: Modem is not the proper type or is not strapped properly. Verify that both modems are of the proper type for the network. Make sure the modems can communicate at the chosen line speed. Check that the modem is “strapped” for the network type (half- or full-duplex, etc.). Perform loopback or end-to-end tests to make sure host-site and emulator-site modems can communicate with each other. Host not varied on or subsystem not started. Vary on the host as described in Section 7.1. Some hosts require the line, device(s), and subsystem to be varied on before the host can communicate. Make sure the subsystem is started. Cause: Action: After you connect the two modems, or when the Card is directly connected to a host without modems, DCD and DSR should be lit. Once the host starts polling, the RX LED should flash. If everything is configured properly, RTS should light, followed immediately by CTS, followed immediately by TX. If DCD and/or DSR are not lit, eiter there is a problem with the configuration of the modem or CSU/DSU, or the cable between the emulator and the modem or CSU/DSU is defective. 79 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD To check the cable, remove the cable connections at both ends and check for bent, broken, or missing pins. In the modem or CSU/DSU configuration, make sure the DSR (Data Set Ready) and DCD (Data Carrier Detect) are set to normal operation, not forced on. DB25 TX RX RTS DSR CTS CD Figure 9-1. LEDs. 80 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD If you have tried all of the above solutions and the emulator is still not active, press the DOS Enter key. This will cause a red error code to appear in the bottom left corner of the display. Refer to the error code chart in Table 9-1 for cause and solution. Table 9-1. Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0040 It has been at least thirty seconds since any valid SDLC frame has been received for any address, and it has also been at least 30 seconds since the DSR signal has been present on the cable from the modem/DCE. This code indicates conditions that would normally result in either error code 0055 or error code 0056, but gives the additional information that DSR is not present. a. The modem is not powered on. b. The telephone connection between the modems/DCEs is down. c. The modem cable is bad or is not corrected properly. d. The Controller is connected to a modem/DCE with a nullmodem (cross-pinned) cable, or is directly connected to the host with straight-through-pinned cable. e. Modems are configured incorrectly. 0049 Software has detected that the MPIC (host-communications card) has functioned in an invalid manner. The MPIC is defective or not installed correctly. The software did not get the interrupt from the card, there is an I/O problem, or the board is bad. 81 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 9-1 (continued). Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0055 Since the startup of the Controller, no valid SDLC frame has been received for the address. This error code will not be displayed if the Controller has ever received any good SDLC frames for any SDLC address. This is true even if the address in the frame is not the address configured for the remote controller, or any of the addresses configured for a multi-card Controller. a. The remote controller has not been varied on at the host. b. NRZI/NONRZI configured on the remote controller does not match the host configuration. c. The cable connecting the Controller to its local modem/ DCE (or that connecting the host to its local modem/DCE) is too long for the chosen data rate. d. The Controller is connected to a modem/DCE with a nullmodem (cross-pinned) cable, or is directly connected to the host with straight-through-pinned cable. e. Modems are configured incorrectly. 82 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 9-1 (continued). Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0056 It has been at least 30 seconds since any valid SDLC frame has been received for any address. However, valid frames were received earlier. This error code will not be displayed if the Controller has received any good SDLC frames for any SDLC address in the last 30 seconds. This is true even if the address in the frame is not the address configured for the remote controller, or any of the addresses configured for a multi-card Controller. The remote controller has been varied off at the host. 83 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 9-1 (continued). Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0057 Since the startup of the Controller (at least 30 seconds ago), no valid SDLC frame has been received for this display station’s remote controller. a. The display stations’s remote controller has not been varied on, but one or more other remote controllers configured on the Controller are still varied on. b. The SDLC address configured for the display station’s remote controller doesn’t match the address configured on the host. c. The display station’s remote controller has not been configured on the host at all. 0058 It has been at least 30 seconds since any valid SDLC frame has been received for the display station’s remote controller. However, frames addressed to this remote controller were received earlier. This error normally shows up only on multi-card Controllers because it implies that other frames are still being received for other remote controller addresses; otherwise, error code 0056 would be displayed, indicating no frames are being received for any address. The display station’s remote controller has been varied off, but one or more emulated remote controllers in the same Controller are still varied on. 84 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 9-1 (continued). Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0059 An SDLC XID command was received for the display station’s remote controller, but that was at least 30 seconds ago and no SDLC i-frame (data frame) has been received since. The remote-controller model (5294 or 5394) configured for the remote controller doesn’t match the host configuration. 85 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table 9-1 (continued). Error Codes. SRC Description Possible Causes(s) 0099 There is no SNA session active for the display station. Normally, this means that the display station or its remote controller is varied off, and the screen is blank. In many cases, when this error code appears, it will be replaced in about 30 seconds with one of the previous seven non-Token-Ring error codes. If this happens, the new error code will be more specific, and should be used to determine the problem. If error code 0099 is not replaced, the problem might be: a. The display station has been varied off at the host, though its remote controller is varied on. b. The display station is not configured on the host, or its twinax address (0 through 6, local station address) is configured incorrectly. Emulator drops off line and will not come back up or stays at a “Vary on pending” status. Cause: Action: Interference on telephone line. Have the phone company check the telephone line. Cause: Action: Message on console. Answer, then delete, the message. Cause: Action: Modem or emulator “locked up.” Power OFF, then power ON both modems and/or the emulator. 86 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Cause: Action: Subsystem terminated. Restart the subsystem. Cause: “Drop line upon sign off” selected as “yes” on the AS/400’s display description. Select “no” to drop the line upon sign off. Action: Slow response time for attached devices. Cause: Action: Interference on communications line. Check for interference on the communications line to/from the host. Cause: Selected data rate is too slow for the number of attached devices or the application. Raise the data-rate settings in the emulator’s configuration and on the modems. Host has nonexistent controller varied on to a multipoint line. Check the host status of the line for such a controller. If the line shows any non-existent controllers that have status other than “varied off,” vary them off. Action: Cause: Action: 9.2 Error Messages The error messages in this section are generated by the 5250 Remote Emulator Card during configuration, while starting emulation, or during active emulation. The IBM Systems/34, /36, /38, and AS/400 have various error messages to help identify communication problems between the host and the PC or PC printer. The IBM host also has a “help” facility designed for error-message recovery. Refer to the IBM Technical Manual for further details. 9.2.1 RUN-TIME ERROR MESSAGES Address Conflict: The same cable address has been assigned to more than one logical-unit session. Bad File Name: The file name cannot be read. This is typically caused when someone uses the wrong filename extension when typing in a configuration file’s name. The only valid extension is .CFG. 87 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Error Creating File: DOS is unable to create a file in the current disk and directory. This is usually because the current disk is unavailable or writeprotected. Error Deleting File: DOS detects an error while attempting to delete a configuration file. This is usually because the current disk is unavailable or write-protected. Error Reading File: The disk file is the wrong size or the data is invalid. If this error occurs while a user-created file is being read, the file must be recreated; otherwise, you should reinstall the configuration software. Error Writing File: DOS detects an error while trying to write data to the current disk. The current disk might be unavailable, write-protected, or full. If you can correct the problem, do so, then press Y and DOS will retry the write; otherwise, press N to abort the write. File Already Exists: The indicated file name already exists. File Could Not Be Found: DOS can’t find the indicated file name. Verify that the current disk and directory are correct. If so, create a new configuration file. File Open Error: DOS detects an error while trying to open the requested file. Verify that the current disk and directory are correct; if so, you should reinstall the configuration software. Invalid Configuration File: The configuration file you are trying to modify is invalid. Verify that you are specifying the correct file. If so, you’ll have to delete and recreate the file. Session is Not a Display Session: The logical session specified for the file transfer has not been configured or is configured as a printer. 9.2.2 ERROR MESSAGES ON LOADING EMULATION SOFTWARE Configuration File is Invalid: The specified configuration file contains incorrect data. Verify that you are using the correct file. If so, you’ll have to delete and recreate the configuration file. Configuration File Not Found: The specified configuration file cannot be located. Verify that the current disk and directory are correct and that the correct configuration file is specified. 88 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Device ID in Configuration File is Invalid: An incorrect device was found while processing the configuration file. Verify the device in the configuration file and, if necessary, delete and recreate the file. Emulation Adaptor Does Not Respond: The 5250 Remote Emulator Card has detected a problem. Power OFF the PC and restart emulation. If the problem persists, verify the hardware configuration. If it is correct, contact your supplier. Emulation Adaptor Diagnostic Error: The Card detects an error during power up. Power OFF the PC and restart emulation. If the problem persists, contact your supplier. Error Reading Keyboard Definition File: The emulation software cannot read the keyboard-definition file. Verify that the current disk and directory are correct. If so, verify that the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software diskette contains the three files KEYBOARD.BAS, KEYBOARD.CHG, and KEYBOARD.DEF. If it doesn’t, contact your supplier. Error Reading Printer Definition File: The emulator software cannot read the printer-definition file. Verify that the current disk and directory are correct; if so, check the configuration and make sure that the printer is correctly configured. If the problem persists, reinstall the software. Keyboard Definition File is Invalid: The data in the keyboard-definition file is incorrect. Recopy the three files KEYBOARD.BAS, KEYBOARD.CHG, and KEYBOARD.DEF from the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software diskette. If this doesn’t help, briefly switch to another keyboard language and then switch back to your desired language; these three files will be overwritten and then recreated. Keyboard Definition File Not Found: The emulation software is unable to locate the keyboard-definition file. If the current disk and directory are correct, copy the three files KEYBOARD.BAS, KEYBOARD.CHG, and KEYBOARD.DEF from the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software diskette into the current disk and directory. Printer Definition File Not Found: The emulation software is unable to locate the printer-definition file. Verify the printer configuration; if it is correct, reinstall the emulation software. 89 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 9.2.3 PC SUPPORT/400 ERROR MESSAGES Handler is already resident: If PC Support is not active, reboot the system. 9.2.4 HOST ERROR MESSAGES The host system also has a set of error messages to report problems with communication between the host and the display station. These four-digit error messages consist of codes 0040 through 0054. See the IBM Technical Reference Manual for your host type (System/34, /36, /38, or AS/400) for further information on host error messages. Use the [ERROR RESET] key to clear the error condition and proceed with the host communications. 9.3 Application Compatibility The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is compatible with most PC application programs. The following information may help prevent any conflicts. 9.3.1 MICROSOFT WINDOWS The 5250 Remote Emulator Card software is Windows compatible if used under a Windows DOS partition. Included with the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software are two *.PIFs (Program Information Files) for starting emulation from Windows. You must enter the pathname of the *.PIF file on the command line of the NEW PROGRAM OBJECT window when you create an icon for the emulation software. 9.3.2 DOS SHELL Make sure all programs, including the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s emulation program, are loaded before you load the DOS Shell. If the emulation program is loaded from DOS Shell, the next application program may not load properly, since the PC’s memory is not fully free. 9.3.3 43- OR 50-LINE MODE The ANSI.SYS screen driver must be installed when you use programs with 43- or 50-line mode, such as Quattro® Pro. Otherwise, the number of lines might revert to another size when you hotkey to a host session and then back to the DOS session. The screen colors may change during the hotkeying for some programs (such as Microsoft Works), but the data will remain unaffected and the screen colors will be restored after the next startup. 90 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 9.3.4 HANDSON When you use HandsOn or Novell® Menu for file transfer, the PC clock might lose the proper time, but data is unaffected. 9.4 Calling Your Supplier If you determine that your 5250 Remote Emulator Card is malfunctioning, do not attempt to alter or repair it. It contains no user-serviceable parts. Contact your supplier: The problem may be solvable over the phone. Before you do, make a record of the history of the problem. Your supplier will be able to provide more efficient and accurate assistance if you have a complete description, including: • the nature and duration of the problem, • when the problem occurs, • the components involved in the problem, • any particular application that, when used, appears to create the problem or make it worse, • the revision level of your software (this is printed on the diskette label), • the date you purchased the Card, • the make and model of any attached printer, and • the type of host system to which the Card is attached. 9.5 Shipping and Packaging If you need to transport or ship your Card: • Package it carefully. We recommend that you use the original container. • If you are shipping the Card for repair, include its software diskette. If you are returning the Card, make sure you include everything you received with the unit. Before you ship, contact your supplier to get a Return Authorization (RA) number. 91 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Appendix A: Names of Executable Files This appendix lists the filenames for the executable programs included with the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software.

Font-change commands for each font are also listed (see Section 8.4.1). As on the cartridges themselves, cartridge fonts are listed in ascending order by pitch. Typestyle numbers with an asterisk (*) next to them are acceptable IBM font IDs for device configuration and OCL or CL printer commands (in hexadecimal). Typestyle numbers in parentheses are alternatives that more closely match the IBM CPI spacing of the font. Font-change commands begin with a logical not (¬), which is [UPPER SHIFT] [6] on U. S. keyboards. The caret (^) symbol may be substituted in non-U.S. applications. Remember that you can’t right-justify proportional fonts with the IBM justify command. C.1 5219 Emulation Tables C-1 and C-2 on the next few pages list IBM typestyle numbers (font IDs) and font-change commands for resident (internal to the printer) HP LaserJet fonts and HP font cartridges with the 5219 printer emulation. NOTE Typestyle number 86 prints the resident 10-CPI Courier font at 12 CPI spacing in portrait (¬QXM). Typestyle number 85 prints the resident 16CPI Line Printer font at 12-CPI spacing in landscape (¬QXN). 102 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Table C-1.

You can change the scan codes that the Card relays from the keyboard connected to the Card’s PC by using the Scan Code Customize option under the Advanced Functions—Keyboard menu in the configuration software (see Section 6.3.2). To make sure which code maps to which function, see Appendix E. 129 130 3C 3E 40 42 44 3C 3E 40 42 44 3B 3D 3F 41 43 3B 3D 3F 41 43 38 2A 0F 29 38 1D 2A 1D 0F 01 02 1E 10 39 28 0E 3A 1C 2B 29 1B 36 0D 3A 1A 35 0C 27 19 34 0B 26 18 33 0A 25 17 32 09 24 16 31 08 23 15 30 07 22 14 2F 06 21 13 2E 05 20 12 2D 04 1F 11 2C 03 AT Keyboard 39 28 1B 36 0D 1A 35 0C 27 19 34 0B 26 18 33 0A 25 17 32 09 24 16 31 08 23 15 30 07 22 14 2F 06 21 13 2E 05 20 12 2D 04 1F 11 2C 03 1E 10 2B 02 PC Keyboard 0E 52 37 1C 4F 4B 47 01 4F 4B 47 45 52 50 4C 48 45 53 50 4C 48 53 51 4D 49 46 51 4D 49 46 4E 4A 37 54 4E 4A 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD 6C 7C 6D 6F 20 3E 7D 57 54 6E 70 31 24 36 05 42 34 43 44 28 1B 0D 35 1A 0C 27 19 0B 26 18 33 68 57 0E 3C 2C 3D 1C 2D 48 46 49 4C 47 45 48 44 4E 4D 43 4A 42 37 41 65 0C 67 45 56 46 62 49 4B 4C 51 4D 53 50 52 4F 4A 66 5E 48 40 5B 47 64 5A 4E 63 61 60 5F 5D 5C 68 1B 2B 0A 3B 58 2B 1C 59 36 1A 2A 09 3A 19 29 08 39 18 28 07 38 17 27 06 37 0F 16 26 5250 Keyboard 25 15 41 25 0A Enhanced PC Keyboard 04 35 14 40 32 17 09 24 16 31 39 23 08 03 34 30 15 3F 13 23 22 07 02 33 12 22 01 32 11 21 0E 3E 71 3D 7E 3C 73 3B 06 21 2F 14 05 20 2E 13 04 2D 12 03 11 1F 38 2C 1E 10 02 72 01 29 0F 3A 2A 1D 131 5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD Appendix E: Keyboard Templates Table E-1 below gives a general definition for each 5250 (host) key. Use the table with the keyboard templates on the next eight pages to keep track of where the functions you need are. There is one keyboard template for each possible combination of PC Keyboard and Emulated Keyboard (see Section 6.2.2). In addition, there are two pairs of templates for the Enhanced keyboard, one for the USA / CAN (ORIG) language and one for the USA / CAN (TERM) langauge (see Section 6.2.3). (We’ve included an Emulator Card template with each keyboard template to give you a set of single-page quick reference guides.) Use the information in this appendix with that in Appendix D when you want to customize your keyboard’s scan codes. Table E-1. Key Functions 5250 Keys [CMD] [DEL] [DUP] [ERASE INPUT] [ERROR RESET] [FIELD +] [FIELD –] [FIELD EXIT] [HELP] 132 Functions of the Keys Causes the host to disregard the normal function of a repeating key and perform the function assigned in the host’s program instead. Deletes the character where the cursor is located. Requests that the host program duplicate the data from the same field in the previous record. Erases data entered in all input fields. The cursor will move to the top left corner of the screen. Unlocks keyboard after it is locked because of an error condition. Will also reset the help, insert, command, and system-request modes. Can be used as a field-exit key in all fields. Operates much like the [FIELD +] key, but in signed-numeric and numeric fields only. Used to exit fields that are specified in a program as field-exit required, or as right-justified. Describes the current error condition.
