Alphabet Keys; Space Bar - IBM 3270 Operator's Manual

Operator Console Keyboard
The characters on the faces of the Alphabet keys are always
displayed as capitals (uppercase characters). The capital (upper-
case) letter on the face of the key is displayed on your screen
whether an alphabet key is operated with the SH I FT key pressed
or with no shift.
On the 3270, unl ike on a typewriter or a keypunch, a space is
considered an actual character that occupies a position on the
face of the screen. When the Space Bar is pressed, a space is
entered on the screen and will replace whatever character is
presently in that position. Thus, the Space Bar should not be
used to position the cursor.
The Space Bar has typamatic capability if held down.
