Image/Fax-View and Print (3489)
•

The 3489 can display and locally print a single-page monochrome image or facsimile.

•

Designed for AS/400 applications that support image or facsimile. For example; IBM's
Facsimile Support/400* (V2 R3, V3 R0.5 or V3 R1) and IBM's ImagePlus* Workfolder
Application Facility/400 (V2 R4).

•

The 3489 supports IOCA, PCX and TIFF image formats. The 3489 supports scrolling,
reverse image, rotation and scaling image viewing manipulations. All image manipulations are performed within the 3489.

•

The AS/400 application displays a pop-up Image/Fax Viewport.
determines the size and location of the Image/Fax Viewport.

•

Using the IBM mouse or lightpen, the user can locally scroll the image in any direction.
The image moves at the same rate and direction as the IBM mouse moves. Using the
Local Control Scale Up feature, the user can define a magnify area in the Image/Fax
Viewport. The magnify area is scaled to the size of the Image/Fax Viewport. Through
the AS/400 application, the user can rotate the image 0, 90, 180 or 270 degrees. Also
through the AS/400 application, the user can scale up/down the image. The 3489 supports a scaling range of 3% to 400%.

•

An image, either displayed or non-displayed, in the 3489 can be printed on the following
3489 locally attached printers: IBM's LaserPrinter* (4019, 4029, 4039), IBM's ExecJet* II
(4076) or HEWLETT-PACKARD LaserJet** III. Note: Depending on the resolution of the
image/fax and the orientation of the image printing (landscape or portrait), additional
memory for the printers may be required.

•

For programming information on Image/Fax, refer to "5494 Remote Control Unit Functions Reference" SC30-3533

The AS/400 application

address. Shared Addressing increases the total number of possible display sessions per
twinaxial workstation controller port from 7 to 28, which increases the total number of
possible display sessions that can be supported by the workstation controller. Shared
Addressing reduces workstation controller and cabling costs when two, three, or four
display sessions is required.

•

For 3488 support of Shared-Addressing,

PTF MF10166 or later is required.

PC/TV** Attachment, 5250 Video Delivery (3489)

or between two separate display sessions. Two modes are supported: Linear (sequential
string marked by starting and ending positions) and Block (rectangular area). Linear copy
requires shift key, followed by primary button press, dragging, and then releasing. Block
copy requires the shift key, followed by primary button press/release/press (within userspecified double click interval), dragging, and then releasing. Paste operations occur by
pressing shift key, followed by secondary button press. The same data can be pasted unlimited times, until display is powered off, or another copy is performed.
AS/400 Simple Hotspots: AS/400 Menu Hotspots allows navigation through AS/400 (or similarly constructed) menus without keyboard interaction by placing the mouse pointer on a
menu item and clicking the primary mouse button. AS/400 Menu Hotspots have the following form: "xxn.yzzzzz" where x is a blank, null, or display attribute; n is a one to two
digit number; y is a blank or null; zzzzz is text. Command Key Hotspots allows the user to
place the mouse pointer on the command (F1-F24) keys and press the primary mouse button.
Command Key Hotspots have the following form: "Fn=", where n is a one or two digit
number between 1 and 24. The user can scroll a file by pressing the primary mouse button
on "+", "-", "More...", or "Bottom" characters. Pressing the secondary mouse button on
"More..." will scroll backward in a file. Double clicking the primary mouse button simulates
the pressing of the Enter key.
