1.1 Brief description of the product MT9750

MT9750 V5.0 is a terminal emulation program that can be used under MS

Win-

dows

NT 4.0 and MS Windows 95 as a true 32-bit application. MT9750 emu-

lates the functions of a data display terminal on your PC (in the BS2000

envi-

ronment, terminals are called data display terminals). With the exception of only

slight differences, it simulates the functions of a 9763 data display terminal and

when configured appropriately it can emulate another terminal from the 9750

product family. The appearance can be adapted to suit your individual require-

ments regardless of the functions emulated. The term 9750 is used in this

manual as a generic term for data display terminals of type 9750, 9755, 9756,

9758, and 9763.

9750 data display terminals are connected to Siemens Nixdorf mainframes run-

ning the BS2000 operating system (BS2000 hosts). Using the emulation pro-

gram, you can enter commands at your PC that are interpreted by the BS2000

host. In this way, your PC replaces a data display terminal and also offers the

diverse options associated with the modern PC world.
