AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e User's Manual
Parameter Summary
Common Mainframe &
AS/400 Parameters
The following tables summarize SNA host communication parameters
that must be considered when installing the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e.
The parameters are presented as:
• Common Mainframe and AS/400 parameters
• Mainframe specific parameters
• AS/400 specific parameters
Parameter
DEVICE_EMUL
Th DEVICE_EMUL parameter controls the Control Unit emulation mode. When set to 3174, the Print
Server will appear as a 3174 PU 2.0 node to the host. This mode may be used for both mainframe and
AS/400 environments.
When set to 5494, the Print Server will appear as a 5494 PU2.1 node to the host. This is the
recommended mode for the AS/400 environment. The 5494 mode cannot be used in the mainframe
environment.
H1_ADDR
The H1_ADDR is the Host Ethernet MAC address. It is normally set to the MAC address of the host.
When the Print Server is connected to the host through a gateway, this parameter should be set to the
MAC address of the gateway. For a directly attached AS/400 system, this value is found in the "Line
Description".
AUTODIAL
The AUTODIAL parameter controls whether the print server will automatically try to establish the link
when the print server is switched on, or if communication is lost.
When running 5494 CU mode, this parameter also controls whether Automatic Configuration should be
performed.
