Chapter 23: Mini-Controller Configuration
Host Menu Options

Host Menu Options
When you choose an existing Host Number, the 9160 G2 displays that host's configuration
parameters. The 5250, 3274, and ANSI emulations have four sub-menus: the host's Emula-
tion Options, TESS Options, Telnet Protocol Options, and Function Key Mappings (for an
overview of the page see Figure 23.1 on page 255).
23.4.1 3274 Emulation
23.4.1.1 Emulation Options
With IBM 3274, or IBM 5250 emulation, the 9160 G2 mini-controller converts the applica-
tion data stream from the host to TESS (Teklogix Screen Subsystem) commands. Some of
the parameters in this page govern the conversion of the host screens to TESS.
Is Host Fujitsu
If this parameter is enabled, the 9160 G2 mini-controller expects the data from the host to
contain commands, etc., native to a Fujitsu host. Enabling this parameter causes the standard
IBM formatting codes (for start of field, setting buffers, etc.) to be replaced by the codes
used by Fujitsu host computers.
Use International EBCDIC
If this parameter is enabled, the 9160 G2 mini-controller uses the International EBCDIC
character set, swapping the positions of the ! and ] characters.
Allow null character in fixed fields:
If this parameter is enabled, the 9160 G2 mini-controller allows null characters in the
whitespace in fields that have visual video attributes such as reverse video. The default for
the 3274 host emulation is disabled.
