Keyboard Operation Modes
You can select either of two keyboard operation modes, Emulation or Native. The
default setting is to emulate an IBM 3278 88-key keyboard. You can change the
keyboard operation mode by changing the Keyboard Type under the Offline Keyboard
menu. See “Offline Keyboard Menu” in this chapter for information on how to select
keyboard operation modes.
Keyboard Definition mode is supported with Native Mode selections.
Emulation Mode
Emulation mode is available for a 122-key, a 104-key, or an 88-key keyboard. In this
mode, the keyboard emulates an IBM 3278 88-key keyboard and the Typewriter
Numeric Pad operates only in Nonshift mode. Some keys on the 122-key keyboard
do not function in Emulation mode. The control unit to which the display station is
attached must be configured to support Emulation mode.
