IBM 3153 ASCII Terminal Display - Delete key not working

Applicable to: World-Wide

Symptom:
3153 Delete key not working.

Background Information:
When the 3153 Delete key is pressed, the 3153 sends to the host the Delete ASCII sequence (based on the ASCII/ANSI emulation selected). The host operation system/application determines how the Delete ASCII sequence is processed.

Based on the ASCII/ANSI emulation, the 3153 Delete Key sends the following Delete ASCII sequence:

Emulation	Sequence
IBM 3151	ESC Q
WYSE 50,60	ESC W
DEC VT300,VT200,VT100	DEL

Recommended Solution:
If the Delete Key is not working as expected, contact the programmer, application developer or systems administrator. The problem is within the host operating system or host application.
