TE 2000 5250 Terminal Emulation Programmer's Guide
This table lists additional operations you can perform on your terminal.
Enters a cent sign.
Moves the cursor to the first unprotected character position of the first line in the
screen. If the entire screen is a protected field, the cursor returns to the home posi-
tion.
Enters a Not symbol.
Moves the cursor back to the most recent first field position. If the cursor is in the
middle of a field, it moves it to the first position of the same field. If the cursor is at
the first position of a field, it moves it to the first position of the preceding input
field.
Controller repeats hex "1C" from the cursor position to the end of the field. This
shows in the display as an overstruck asterisk.
For numeric fields, makes the input a negative number.
Advances cursor to the next input field. For numeric fields, makes the input a posi-
tive number.
This is valid within any unprotected entry input field in which the Dup or Field
Mark key is allowed (FFW bit 3 set to on). The Field Mark character (X'1E') is dis-
played as an overscore on IBM 5251 Display Stations and as a space on all other sup-
ported workstations. If an operator presses the Field Mark key in an entry field that
does not allow the Dup or Field Mark key, operator error 0019 is posted. The Field
Mark code point is allowed in an outbound data stream.
Moves the cursor to the first position in the next input field.
To enter an operation:
Press the keys listed in the chapter for the terminal. Or, scan the bar code
in Appendix A, "Bar Code Scanning."
The terminal's display reserves a line for status information. The status line
can display system (nonlocal) information such as a message waiting from
the host computer, help messages in response to the [Help] key, or the sys-
tem request state of the terminal.
System codes can also appear on the status line. System messages and codes
are described in Chapter 6, "Display Data Stream."
