Chapter 7. CUT Device Support

Note that if the File Transfer feature is enabled, the Change Profile key will be ignored.
Windowing Profile 0 is the only profile that can be used in conjunction with the File Transfer
feature.

• Jump - The jump key will take you through the sessions (up to 5) that are defined in your

current profile. In profile 0, the jump key takes you through all of your configured sessions.

• Zoom - The Zoom key can be used to view your foreground sessions data on a full screen.

While displaying a Windowing Profile other than profile 0, you will only see a portion of
the data from each windows session. When you want to see the full screen of data on a
particular session, you can jump to that session and use the Zoom key to display the data on
a full screen. Pressing the Zoom key again will re-display the original Windowing Profile.

A display’s status line will show the current windowing profile in column 7. This can be
helpful if you have multiple profiles defined.

Configuration and Management

Configuration - Windowing is enabled in a display’s Device Profile. If it is enabled, then all
CUT devices assigned to the Device Profile will have access to the feature.

Management - The “Display/Update Windowing Setup” utility which is on the Customization
Data Menu is Central Control Mode can be used to define System Profiles, or to copy System
Profiles to your User Profiles. It also allows you to name your profiles and sessions.

Work Station Control Mode

Work Station Control (WSC) Mode is the mode you must enter in order to define your
windowing profiles. To enter WSC mode, press the key combination. Refer to
the Windowing Keys table for the location of these keys. Note that while you are in WSC
mode, your host sessions remain active and will continue to display data that the host may
send.

When you enter WSC mode, your cursor will disappear and the status line will be used to
display Work Station Control Mode information. The following is an example of the WSC
status line.
