Product Description
The System 36/38 Workstation Emulation Adapter/A, Part Number 69X6279,
when used with a compatible terminal emulation program, enables systems
meeting the IBM Micro Channel (R) Standard to be attached to IBM System/36,
System/38, and AS/400 (R) hosts. This adapter provides four physical address
links to your AS/400 or S3X host.
The IBM System 36/38 Workstation Emulation Adapter/A and System 36/38
Attachment Cable allow IBM Personal System/2 Models to emulate either 5250
Displays or 5250 Printers. The adapter is attached to the twinax cable
used in System 36/38 environments. The adapter, along with the IBM System
36/38 Workstation Emulation Program, Version 1.0, allows access to the
application programs on the System 36/38 as if the user were at a 5250
workstation. As a printer, the user can print the output of System 36/38
application programs on a printer attached to the IBM Personal System/2.
The IBM System 36/38 Workstation Emulation Program provides limited multitasking
capabilities that allow the IBM Personal System/2 to interact with the
System 36/38 as if it were four separate terminals or printers. The sessions
can be any combination of printer, display, or host graphics sessions that
do not exceed four sessions total. The user can easily switch between up
to four different System 36/38 tasks, as well as one DOS task.
An 8088 processor is provided on the IBM System 36/38 Workstation Emulation
Adapter/A reducing the timing dependencies on the IBM Personal System/2.
Compatible IBM 5250 terminal emulation programs include:
- System 36/38 Workstation Emulation Program V1.0
- 5250 Emulation for Windows V1.1
- Personal Communications AS/400 for Windows V4.0
- Personal Communications AS/400 for OS/2 V4.0
- IBM Communications Manager-based products such as Extended Services
for OS/2 (TM) and IBM Communications Manager/2 Version 1.0 and later (these
products support AS/400 attachment only).
