the System Disk and PFSV will be displayed in the MSG area on the status line. The
profiles which are saved will be restored to the device upon subsequent IML of the LINCS
node.

• Restoring Profiles -You may restore your previously saved profiles by pressing the

and key combination. Keep in mind that your saved profiles will be restored upon
IML of the LINCS node. Using the restore function is useful if you have modified your
profiles and wish to restore them as they were last saved. If your profiles are successfully
restored, you will be PFRS in the MSG area on the status line.

Keep in mind that a profile cannot be restored if any of the following statements are true.

• The saved profile mod size is not compatible with the mod size of the currently attached

display station.

• The display station has fewer sessions than the saved profile.

• Changing Profiles - The key allows you to switch to the next defined profile.

When the key is pressed, the PROFILE= field on the status line will display the new profile
number and the screen will be updated to display the windows in the new profile.

• Selecting Windows - Use the jump function to select a window. You can select a window

from Application mode or WSC mode.

• Selecting a Window from Application Mode - Press the key. The next window

that is set up in the current profile becomes the active window. When a window is selected,
its border (if displayed) changes to foreground border colors and/or symbols, and the
status line is updated to show the selected windows name. The previously selected
window’s border shows background symbols and/or colors. Keep pressing the
key to advance the active window through windows A, B, C, D and E if they are defined.
After the last window is selected the next depression of the key makes window
A the active window. If you know the letter designation of the window you want to
select, press the ALT key + character key for that window (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, or J).
The window is selected.

• Selecting a Window from WSC Mode -Press the character key (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I,

or J) that corresponds to the window you want to select, or press the key as
described above.

• Zooming a Window - While in WSC mode, you may want to view a sessions data on a full

screen. You can do this by pressing the key, which is basically the same as switching
to profile 0. You can press the Zoom key again to return to the original Windowing Profile.

• Browsing Windows - The Browse function allows you to move data vertically or horizontally

within a window so that you can see session data that exists beyond the window’s borders.

To browse, press the key and then use the cursor movement keys to browse the
data in the desired direction. The data in the current window will be shifted as the cursor
movement keys are pressed. To browse data in another window, press the desired session
letter (a-j), or jump to the desired session using the key. You can exit browse mode
by pressing again.

• Copying Data - With the Copy function you can copy data from a 3270 session or an ASCII

session in one window to a 3270 session or an ASCII session in another window. You can
also copy from one location in a window to another location within the same window.

Note: You can use the Keyboard Definition utility (KDU) to define Copy and Send keys. Refer
to the Configuration and Central Control manual for instructions on how to use the KDU.
