Customizing 3270 Emulation
Customizing Miscellaneous Options
If the terminal you are using has the facility to allow
programs to write to its status line, mark this check
box if you want the TN3270 emulation program's
status line to be written to the terminal's status line.
Leave the check box unmarked if the terminal does not
support this, or if you do not want to use it (for
example, so that you can view both status lines). For
more information about how the TN3270 emulation
program displays its status line, see Appendix B,
“Status Line Information.”
The TN3270 emulation program checks this option
only when a session is started. If you change it while a
session is enabled, the change does not take effect until
you stop and restart the session.
If your terminal does not support writing to the status
line, the emulator ignores this option. For more
information about whether your terminal supports this
option, contact your System Administrator, or refer to
the Installation chapter in the HP-UX TN3270
Administrators Guide.
Motif The Motif version of the program ignores this option;
there is no separate terminal status line.
End of section
Status line displayed at startup
Mark this check box if you want the status line to be
“always on” when you start the program, or leave it
unmarked if you want the status line to be displayed
only when there is a condition leading to a Do Not
Enter or Communications Check message.
You can switch between the two modes while the
program is running by using the STAT TOG (Status
Line Toggle) key. For more information, see Appendix
B, “Status Line Information.”
