Chapter 23: Mini-Controller Configuration
5250 Emulation
23.4.2 5250 Emulation
23.4.2.1 Emulation Options
With IBM 5250, or IBM 3274 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.
Write Error Code
If advisory text is selected here, the 9160 G2 sends error codes to the mobile computer
screen as advisory text, which is written at the bottom of the screen. If screen text is chosen,
the 9160 G2 sends the error codes as regular screen text.
Use International EBCDIC
If this parameter is enabled, the 9160 G2 will swap the positions of the ! and ] characters in
the EBCDIC character table.
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 5250 host emulation is enabled.
