INTRODUCTION
Appendix F
The International Business Machines Corporation's (IBM's) 3270 Information Display Sys-
tem has found wide applications in a variety of businesses. However, some users have also
found it desirable to have other computer-related products manufactured by different com-
panies. As IBM equipment responds to its own character codes and transmission commands,
it has been difficult to ttmix" product lines.
With its dual personality, the HP 2625A may function over Port 1 as an Hewlett-Packard
terminal interacting with Hewlett-Packard products while it functions over Port 2 as an IBM
3276 Control Unit within an IBM environment. You may also connect the 2625A over Port 1
to non HP systems which support ASCII asynchronous point-to-point data communications in
character mode.
This appendix describes how to install your terminal into an IBM environment, how to
configure the terminal for IBM mode, and differences in operation between the IBM 3276 and
the HP 2625A. It doesn't attempt to rewrite existing IBM documentation. Therefore, you
should have access to the following IBM manuals:
• An Introduction to the 3270 Information Display System, GA27-2739
