Display/Update Host Connections
Each LINCS port can support up to ten sessions. Sessions on the port are labeled A through J.
The port’s sessions can be attached to different hosts, enabling display stations to switch
easily from one host to another. The sessions can be attached to 3270 hosts or ASCII hosts.
Using the update option ( ,u ) and password, a supervisory disconnect on any host session
may be processed. Each host-LU contains a field to the left of the host identifier (see the
example panel). This field can be used to disconnect a session by entering the letter D or d in
the field and then pressing the PF10 key. Multiple sessions may be disconnected simultaneously.
When the disconnect is processed, an asterisk ( * ) is placed to the left of the host-LU field. If
the disconnect cannot occur for any reason, a question mark ( ? ) appears to the left of the
host-LU field.
An additional parameter may be entered to show only the connections for a particular host
type. This parameter may be entered with or without the update option (such as 6,3 or 6,u,3 ).
Use three ( 3 ) as the parameter to display 3270 host connection information, @ for LAT, T or
t for TELNET, and X or x for ASCII.
Host Connection Panel
The Host Connection Panel displays the host connections that are configured, in a format
similar to the configuration panel. As LINCS capabilities have grown from the original 16
Host support to 128 Host capabilities (on the SCON-28L), the format of the information has
changed somewhat. The table following the example panel describes both the original and the
newer or modified character representations.
