IBM 3153 ASCII Terminal Display - Return key not working
Applicable to: World-Wide
Symptom:
3153 Return Key is not working.
Background Information:
When the 3153 is configured for IBM 3151 emulation, the user or the host can determine the operation of the Return Key.
The 3153 Return Key is above the right shift key and is labeled 'Return' or 'Enter' (based on ASCII style or PC style keyboard).
IBM 3151 emulation supports:
- Return Key = New Line (3153 factory default setting)
- Return Key = Field
Return Key = New Line:
Every time the Return Key is pressed the 3153 performs New Line operation. The Return Key sends a <CR> or <CR><LF> based on the 3153 New Line Setup option.
Return Key = Field:
Every time the Return Key is pressed the 3153 performs Field operation.
The Return Key can be selected by the:
- User by entering 3153 setup menu, and selecting 'F5 Keys' setup menu.
- Host Application by using the IBM 3151 Set/Read Control 3 Command. Refer to IBM 3153 or IBM 3151 Programmers Reference Manual.
Recommended Solution:
If the Return is not working, using the 3153 setup menus and change the 'Return Key' setup parameter from 'Field' to 'New Line' or 'New Line' to 'Field.
Notes:
For 3153 attachment to RS/6000, the preferred 3153 setup value for 'Return Key' = 'New Line' For 3153 attachment to AS/400, the preferred 3153 setup value for 'Return Key' = 'New Line'
