All information applies to both platforms unless otherwise in-            dicated.             DESCRIPTION   O           The Compaq DECwindows SNA 3270 Terminal Emulator for OpenVMS (DECwin- N           dows TE) is a software product that allows users of supported, Open-N           VMS based Compaq workstations and servers in a DECnet or TCP/IP net-J           work to access and use applications running on an IBM mainframe.  P           The product runs in the DECwindows Motif[R] environment. Access to theO           IBM host-based applications system from OpenVMS systems is via one of 7           the following SNA server or gateway products:   &           TCP/IP or DECnet Connections  #           o  Compaq SNA Peer Server   &           o  Compaq SNA Domain Gateway  4           o  Compaq SNA Access Server for Windows NT  Q           o  Compaq SNA Server for OpenVMS Alpha, an OpenVMS layered product that C              supports local access as well as remote DECnet clients   !           DECnet Only Connections   @           o  Compaq DECnet SNA Gateway for Synchronous Transport  <           o  Compaq DECnet SNA Gateway for Channel Transport  N           o  Compaq SNA Server for OpenVMS VAX, an OpenVMS VAX layered productH              that supports local access as well as remote DECnet clients  M                                                                    April 2001            L           Compaq DECwindows SNA 3270 Terminal                   SPD 31.58.04+           Emulator for OpenVMS, Version 2.1   6           Communicating Between IBM and Compaq Systems  P           In normal operation, IBM systems transfer a formatted screen much likeQ           a "form" or "panel" to the IBM 3270 block mode terminal. Terminal users M           fill in required data and the 3270 terminal transmits the completed Q           form to the IBM host as a single unit. In contrast to this "block-mode" O           approach, Compaq terminals and workstations send data to OpenVMS host O           systems one character at a time. Using the DECwindows TE enables Com- M           paq's character-mode terminals to emulate IBM's block-mode style of N           computing by buffering outbound IBM data in the host system's memoryN           before displaying it, as a single block, on the Compaq terminal. TheM           Compaq terminal then transmits the screen form to the IBM host sys- +           tem via an SNA server or gateway.   +           Translating ASCII and EBCDIC Data   P           Compaq systems use ASCII code to represent data, while IBM systems useN           EBCDIC. DECwindows TE contains built-in translation tables that con-N           vert ISO Latin character input (given in ASCII code) to IBM multina-R           tional EBCDIC code for transfer through the SNA server or gateway. UsersO           of DECwindows TE can modify these translation tables to fit most lan-            guage needs.  $           Starting the DECwindows TE  M           Users can invoke the DECwindows TE from the OpenVMS command line or H           choose a custom menu selection on FileView or Session Manager.  S           Users invoking DECwindows TE from an OpenVMS command line use the SNATERM M           command, along with DECwindows qualifiers to specify the IBM system O           and system resources to which they want to connect. While the DECwin- Q           dows TE utility is running, its display window is formatted in the same O           style as a 3270 display station with the option of 3270, 3279-S3G, or M           3192-G terminal types. Exiting DECwindows TE returns control to the #           OpenVMS Operating System.             ,                                            2           L           Compaq DECwindows SNA 3270 Terminal                   SPD 31.58.04+           Emulator for OpenVMS, Version 2.1              Features  N           o  Provides a DECwindows Motif style graphical user interface (GUI).N              This GUI complies with The Open Group[TM] Motif specification forN              both an open graphical user interface and an application program-"              ming interface (API).  N           o  Copy and Paste support of text within the current DECwindows ses-?              sion and to and from other DECwindows applications   N           o  Provides default keyboard maps for LK201, Mac X, and IBM enhanced              PC keyboards   N           o  Equipped with a Record and Playback feature that enables users toL              save and replay up to 127 keystrokes to a selected function key  &           o  Graphics printing support  '           o  Graphics packages support:   ;              -  IBM's GDDM (Graphical Data Display Manager)   *              -  SAS Institutes's SAS/Graph  H           The DECwindows TE emulates the following IBM Display Stations:             o  3178              o  3180M1-5              o  3278M1-5              o  3279-S3G              o  3179-G              o  3192-G   .           Supported IBM 3270 Terminal Features  -           o  Protected and unprotected fields   M           o  Up to 1,920 characters (exception is 3278 Model 1 where applica-               ble)   *           o  Alphanumeric and numeric data  ,                                            3           L           Compaq DECwindows SNA 3270 Terminal                   SPD 31.58.04+           Emulator for OpenVMS, Version 2.1   5           o  Audible alarm and blinking cursor option   K           o  Intensified display, normal display, and nondisplay characters   4           o  Alphanumeric cursor (block cursor only)  "           o  Numeric lock override  O           o  Auto-repeat keys (as available on workstation keyboard SET-UP fea-               ture)  O           o  SYS REQ (allows user to switch between SSCP-LU and LU-LU sessions)   +           o  Local Function Keys supported:   3           - Erase to End    - Cursor Left and Right            of Field  .           - Erase Input     - Delete Character  '           - Print           - Duplicate   (           - Backtab         - Field Mark  )           - Cursor Up       - Insert Mode            and Down             - Cursor Home   <           o  Base color by data stream and structured fields  R           o  Local and host initiated copy and printer order FF (form feed) (black              and white only)  0           o  3270 Extended Attributes Supported:  T              -  Foreground and background colors (blue, red, pink, green, turquoise,%                 yellow, white, black)   F              -  Extended highlighting (reverse video and underscoring)  0              -  Programmed symbols/character set  N           IBM 3278 and 3180 Display Station Models 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 Features:  !              Screen Size Support:   ,                                            4           L           Compaq DECwindows SNA 3270 Terminal                   SPD 31.58.04+           Emulator for OpenVMS, Version 2.1   .                 Model 1 - Up to 960 characters/                 Model 2 - Up to 1920 characters /                 Model 3 - Up to 2560 characters /                 Model 4 - Up to 3440 characters /                 Model 5 - Up to 3564 characters   9           IBM 3179-G and 3192-G Display Station Features:   &           o  Vector-to-raster graphics             o  Mouse support  D           o  Trimming function as provided in DECwindows environment  5           o  Graphic cursor (only white cross cursor)   *           o  Programmed Symbol Set A and B  ,           o  Up to 2560 characters (32 x 80)  0           IBM 3279-S3G Display Station Features:  &           o  Programmed Symbol Set A-F  ,           o  Up to 2560 characters (32 x 80)  ,           3270 Terminal Features Unsupported  N           o  Selector light pen, security lock, magnetic strip card, and oper-,              ator identification card reader  /           o  <-!

Less memory may be re- Q           quired on the client system (the system where the software is installed M           and executed) if the server (the component that displays the appli- M           cation) resides on another system.
