The IBM 5379 Model MOl Display
19-inch screen with a 960 x 1000 dot matrix, all points addressable
monochrome, with four different levels of tone
up to 4000 characters in 80 columns by 50 rows.
The IBM 5279 Display is always coupled with an IBM 5278 Display
Attachment Unit.
The IBM 5379 Display is always coupled with an IBM 5378 Display
Attachment Unit, which contains in addition a graphics processor, giving
enhanced graphics performance.
The three displays, together with their display attachment units, thus offer
a choice of screen size, color capability, and graphics drawing speed to suit
various application needs. Their all-points-addressable screens give
greatly enhanced graphics and image capability. They support 3270
alphanumeric application programs running in the host, including programs
written in APL. They also emulate the Color Graphics Adapter of the IBM
PC.
The System Units
Attachments
There are three different models of the IBM 5371 System Unit to choose
from: the Model 12, the Model 14, and the Model 16.
Each model can be used with either the IBM 5279 or the IBM 5379 Display.
The system unit provides for attachment to a host through an IBM 3274
Control Unit. It also provides the IBM PC environment for local computing
and permits the attachment of other devices to the work station. The
different models offer a choice of storage sizes and local disk and diskette
files.
The following equipment can be attached to the work stations:
•
An IBM 5371 keyboard, in standard or APL version.
•
The IBM 5182 Personal Computer Color Printer, the IBM 5152
Monochrome Printer, or the IBM 3852 Color Ink Jet Printer.
•
An IBM 5083 Model 2 Tablet or an IBM 5277 Mouse, for input to
graphics application programs.
•
An IBM 7371, 7372, 7374, or 7375 Color Plotter.
