5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
2. Quick Setup Guide
Thank you for buying the 5250 Remote Emulator Card. If you are familiar
with emulation equipment, this chapter is designed to help you get up and
running in a short amount of time. It describes how to do the hardware
installation, software installation, and configuration setup in just a few steps
each.
CAUTION!
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is a static-sensitive device. Keep the
Card in its protective bag until you are ready to install it.
2.1 Unpacking
Check the package your Card was shipped in for water-related or shipping-
related damage; contact the carrier if you find any. The package should
contain the following:
• (1) 5250 Remote Emulator Card
• (1) 3.5" software diskette
• (1) copy of this manual
Keep the original packaging in case you ever have to reship the card. If
1
your system requires 5 ⁄4" diskettes, contact your supplier.
2.2 Installing the Hardware
1. Turn OFF the PC and any peripherals that might be attached to it.
Unplug the PC’s power cord or power supply from the electrical
outlet and (if possible) from the PC.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if
possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card
or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you
have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its
cables.

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
WARNUNG!
Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die
Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen
werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel
angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der
Netzstecker zu ziehen.
2. Disconnect the PC from its monitor and remove the PC’s cover.
Locate an empty expansion slot and remove the slot’s cover (but keep
the slot cover’s screw close by). Touch a grounded surface, other than
the PC’s chassis to dissipate any static charge you might have built up,
then carefully remove the 5250 Remote Emulator Card from its anti-
static bag.
3. Grasp the 5250 Remote Emulator Card by its edges. If the Card’s
factory-default I/O address 300 to 30F is available in your PC, go to
Step 4. Otherwise, using a screwdriver, set the Card’s DIP switch for an
unused I/O address (see Table 2-1 below).

4.Press the card firmly into the expansion slot. Screw the slot cover’s
screw back in.
5.Run the Card’s diagnostic program before you replace the PC’s cover:
a) Plug in the monitor, keyboard, and power without replacing the
PC’s cover, then turn ON the PC. (Be extremely careful while you do
this.)
b) At the first DOS prompt, go to the directory where you have the
5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software stored: Type the diskette-
12
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
drive letter followed by a colon and [ENTER](if you are keeping it
on a copy of the original diskette) or the hard-disk letter followed
by a colon, a backslash, the subdirectory name, and [ENTER](if
you’re keeping it on the hard drive).
c) At the next DOS prompt, run the Emulator’s diagnostic program
by typing
emdiag [ENTER]
A copyright screen appears, prompting you to press [ENTER]to
continue. Then a diagnostic screen appears, showing the PC I/O
addresses the Card supports. Use the cursor to highlight the
address you want to test-run, then press [ENTER].
d) If this test fails for the given address, there might be a conflict for
that address that you’re not aware of. Check the address settings of
the PC’s I/O components again, carefully, and try setting the Card
to use a different address. If the test fails for any address you try,
you probably have a bad Card. See Section 9.4.
e) If this test is successful, the program prompts you to let it do a
modem-loopback test. Select “N”; the program ends.
6. Use an appropriate cable to connect the 5250 Remote Emulator Card
to a host’s communication port or to a modem:
For local operation (direct connection to host):
Across EIA RS-232D/CCITT V.24 interface: Cross-pinned DB44
male to DB25 female (product code EHN064-0020);
Across CCITT X.21 interface: Cross-pinned DB44 male to DB15
female (product code EHN063-0020);
Across CCITT V.35 interface: Cross-pinned DB44 male to 34-pin
M-block male (product code EHN065-0020);
For remote operation (connection to host across modem link):
Across EIA RS-232D/CCITT V.24 interface: Straight-through-
pinned DB44 male to DB25 female (product code EHN061-
0020);
Across CCITT X.21 interface: Straight-through-pinned DB44 male
to DB15 female (product code EHN060-0020);
Across CCITT V.35 interface: Straight-through-pinned DB44 male
to 34-pin M-block male (product code EHN062-0020);
7. Remote operation only: Follow the modem manufacturer’s
instructions for installing and configuring the modem to perform
synchronous communication over your type of telephone line.

3. Introduction
3.1 General Overview
Thank you for purchasing a 5250 Remote Emulator Card. We hope that
the Card helps you meet all of your PC-to-twinax connectivity needs.
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card brings the best of the twinax and PC
®
®
worlds together by connecting your IBM AS/400 or System/3X to a PC
either directly or across a phone-line-plus-sync-modem SDLC link. The
Card, which operates in DOS or Windows (under a DOS partition), lets
your PC emulate (act like) any of several controllers or display stations and
lets your PC’s printer emulate several types of system printers. At the time
of this writing, it is the fastest card of its type on the market, capable of
local operation at up to 64 kbps or remote operation at up to 128 kbps. It
emulates a 5394 remote controller, which gives it the capability of working
with PC Support software on the AS/400. The Card has 132-column
capability and supports multiple languages.
3.2 Interfaces Supported
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card supports these three interfaces:
• EIA RS-232D, known internationally as V.24, is a standard for
interfacing Data Terminal Equipment (DTEs) with Data
Communications Equipment (DCEs) over short distances.
• X.21 is a general purpose interface between DTEs and Data-Circuit-
Terminating Equipment (DCTs) for operating on synchronous Public
Data Networks (PDN) that provide dialup and leased-line services for
data communication. X.21 supports transmitting at speeds up to
64 Kbps to a maximum distance of 1000 meters (3280.8 feet).
• V.35 is a high-speed interface. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card
supports V.35 transmission at speeds up to 128 kbps (for remote
applications) or up to 64 kbps (for local applications) to a maximum
distance, depending on your data rate and the type of cable you use,
of 600 to 1200 meters (1968.5 to 3937 feet).

4.3 Procedure for Hardware Installation
CAUTION!
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is static-sensitive. Take the same
precautions you would with any static-sensitive device. One such
precaution is being aware that some elements of your work
environment, such as carpeting, floor mats, dry air from winter heating,
etc., can cause static buildup. To prevent a static discharge, touch a
grounded surface, other than the PC’s chassis, before handling the
Card. Do not touch any components on the Card’s surface, especially
the microprocessor chips; handle the Card by the edges only.
Follow these instructions to install the 5250 Remote Emulator Card in your
PC:
1. Turn OFF and unplug the PC and all devices attached to it.
CAUTION!
Make sure that the PC is OFF and its power supply is unplugged and (if
possible) its power cord removed before you begin installing the Card
or connecting any of its cables. Don’t turn the PC back ON until you
have completely finished installing the Card and connecting all of its
cables.
WARNUNG!
Vergewisseren Sie sich, dass die PC ausgeschaltet und die
Netzzuleitung entfernt ist bevor irgendwelche Kabel angeschlossen
werden. Schalten Sie Gerät nicht wieder ein bevor alle Kabel
angeschlossen sind. Zur vollständigen Trennung vom Netz ist der
Netzstecker zu ziehen.
2. Disconnect the PC from its monitor. If the monitor is sitting on top of
the PC’s case, lift the monitor off and set it aside.
3. Follow the instructions in the PC’s manual for removing the PC’s
cover. Set the cover aside and save the screws for reassembly.
4. Locate an empty expansion slot. Using a screwdriver (or, if necessary,
a socket wrench), remove the slot’s cover. Keep the slot cover’s screw
close by.
5. Touch a grounded surface such as the PC’s chassis to dissipate any
static charge you might have built up, then carefully remove the
5250 Remote Emulator Card from its anti-static bag.

NAME
6. When you install the Card into the PC, it uses one of the PC’s I/O
addresses. The Card is factory-preset to use the base I/O address of
300. Since two cards can’t share the same address (that could cause
the PC to crash), you might need to change the 5250 Remote
Emulator Card’s address setting. If you do have to change this setting,
go to the next step; if you don’t, go to Step 8.
7. Locate the DIP switch in the upper left-hand corner of the Card
(see Figure 4-1 below).
1 2 3 4
Figure 4-1. Location of the Card’s DIP switch.
Using the screwdriver provided with your Card, set the DIP switch to
select an unused I/O address (see Table 4-1 on the next page). Write
down the address you’ve selected so that you’ll have it handy when
you’re ready to do the software configuration.
8. Hold the card by its edges (do not touch the components or
circuitry), and insert the card into the expansion slot. Firmly press the
card into the PC motherboard’s socket connector. See Figure 4-2 on
the next page.
9. Align the slot on the Card’s bracket with the hole you opened when
you removed the expansion slot’s cover: Gently lift or press down on
the end of the Card opposite the bracket and connector until the slot
and hole are properly lined up. If they are not properly aligned, the
card will not seat correctly in the PC and will not function properly.

11. Run the Card’s diagnostic program before you replace the PC’s cover:
a) Plug in the monitor, keyboard, and power without replacing the
PC’s cover, then turn ON the PC. (Be extremely careful while you
do this.)
b) At the first DOS prompt, go to the directory where you have the
5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software stored: Type the diskette-
drive letter followed by a colon and [ENTER](if you are keeping
it on a copy of the original diskette) or the hard-disk letter followed
by a colon, a backslash, the subdirectory name, and [ENTER]
(if you’re keeping it on the hard drive).
c) At the next DOS prompt, run the Emulator’s diagnostic program
by typing
emdiag [ENTER]
A copyright screen appears, prompting you to press [ENTER]
to continue. Then, as shown in Figure 4-3 on the next page, a
diagnostic screen appears, showing the PC I/O addresses the
Card supports. Use the cursor to highlight the address the DIP
switch is set for, then press [ENTER].
d) If this test fails for the given address, there might be a conflict for
that address that you’re not aware of. Check the address settings
of the PC’s I/O components again, carefully, and try setting the
Card’s DIP Switch to a different address. If the test fails for several
addresses, make sure the Card is seated properly. If the test fails for
all the addresses you try, the slot it’s in might be defective; reinstall
the Card in a diferent slot. If all addresses still fail, you probably
have a bad Card. See Section 9.3.
e) If this test is successful, the program prompts you to let it do a
modem-loopback test. Go to the next step.

• NRZ/NRZI Encoding: NRZ (Non-Return to Zero) and NRZI
(Non-Return to Zero Inverted) are SDLC transmission-coding options
used to keep synchronization loss between modems to a minimum.
The recom-mended initial setting is NRZI. This setting must match
that of the host.
• Interrupt Request Level: An IRQ (Interrupt Request) is a control
signal sent by the emulator card to demand the PC’s attention. The
Card supports IRQ levels 3, 4, 10, 11, and 15. If you’ve installed the
Card in an 8-bit slot, use IRQ 3 or 4. If you’re running Windows,
use IRQ 10, 11, or 15.
NOTE
PC adapter boards require a unique IRQ level. Make sure the 5250
Remote Emulator Card’s IRQ level is not the same as the IRQ level of
any other board in the same PC.
• DMA Channel 1 and DMA Channel 3: By using DMA (Direct Memory
Access) channels, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card can transmit data
to the host at a higher data rate than 19,200 bps. If you select Disable,
the 5250 Remote Emulator Card will not operate above 19,200 bps.
NOTE
Both channels should be enabled. Problems might occur if both are
disabled.
• Base I/O Address: This is the Card’s address in the PC’s I/O memory.
The address you select here must match the one you set with the Card’s
DIP switches during the hardware installation (see Section 4.3). Refer
to page 16 for the list of addresses you can choose from.
NOTE
PC adapter boards require a unique I/O address. Make sure the 5250
Remote Emulator Card’s I/O address is not the same as the I/O address
of any other board in the same PC.
• Baud Rate: The data rate at which the Card operates, measured in
bits per second. Selecting Modem automatically sets the 5250 Remote
Emulator Card to match the data rate of the attached modem. When
you use a null-modem cable, manually select the data rate for the
communications line.

• Status Attributes: Use this option to define how the host system’s status
line is displayed on the PC screen. Move the cursor to Status Attributes
and press [ENTER]. Type in the hexadecimal value corresponding to
your desired display-line status attributes. (If your monitor is a
monochrome model, you can find the list of possible values in Table
6-2; if your monitor is a color model, the possible values are listed in
Table 6-3.)
NOTE
The value you enter here is for the first display session. If you’re using a
color monitor, the software automatically assigns each of the following
sessions the correspondingly preceding character attribute. For
example, if you select red text on a black background (hex value 04) for
the first display session, the second session will have cyan text (03), the
third session green text (02), and so on.
• Field Attributes: Host systems use field attributes to identify different
field types on the display screen. For example, a warning or message
field on the screen might be flashing red, while the normal screen
fields might be green. You can customize these field colors to suit your
tastes or applications. When you select the Field Attributes option, a
window appears on the screen showing the current field attributes
(see Figure 6-8 on the next page and Tables 6-1 through 6-3 on the
following two pages).

To change the field attributes at this screen, take these steps:
1. Find your desired IBM 5250 attribute in Table 6-1 on the next page.
Type in the hex value for that field, then press [ENTER]. A “beep”
will sound if you make an invalid choice.
2. Find the attribute you wish to assign to this field in Table 6-2 (if you
have a monochrome monitor) or 6-3 (if you have a color monitor)
on page 39.
3. Type in this value and press [ENTER]. Notice that the field assumes
the attributes you’ve selected.
4. Continue to change attributes until you’re finished, then follow the
directions on the screen to exit.
• EBCDIC to ASCII: (This option is for advanced users only.) The
character-code set used by the host (EBCDIC) is not compatible with
that used by the PC (ASCII). To let both systems communicate, the
5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software uses an EBCDIC-to-ASCII
translation table.
With this menu option, you can customize the table. For example, to
force the “$” character to display as a “#” character, move the cursor to
the EBCDIC to ASCII option and press [ENTER]. The translation table
will appear. Change the table by first entering the EBCDIC code for a
“$” character, which is 5B(see Appendix A for EBCDIC and ASCII
tables). Second, enter the ASCII code for the character to be displayed;
in this case, the ASCII code for the “#” character is 23.
NOTE
You might need to load a new code page into the PC for the desired
character.
• Cursor Type: Use this option to customize your cursor. Choose
between 1 (blinking block), 2 (blinking overline), 3 (no cursor) or 4
(blinking underline).
• Display Adaptor: Some monitors must change modes to display 132
columns, while other monitors may not support 132-column screens at
all. If your monitor supports 132 columns, you must enter the “AL”
value for the 132-column mode to enable 132-column display. (The AL
value is listed in the video card’s manual as the MODE setting. For
most cards, leave the “BL” value at 00.) Type in this value and press
[ENTER].

• EBCDIC to ASCII Translation: (This option is for advanced users only.)
The character-code set used by the host (EBCDIC) is not compatible
with that used by the printer (ASCII). To allow both systems to
communicate, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software uses an
EBCDIC-to-ASCII translation table.
With this menu option, you can customize the table. For example,
to force the “$” character to print as a “#” character, move the cursor
to the EBCDIC to ASCII Translation option and press [ENTER].
The translation table will appear. Change the table by first entering
the EBCDIC code for a “$” character, which is 5B(see Appendix B
for EBCDIC and ASCII tables). Second, enter the ASCII code for
the character to be displayed; in this case, the ASCII code for the
“#” character is 23.
• Code Page Selection (4214 only): The default code-page selection is
Code Page 850. If the printer supports it, you can change to Code
Page 437 by pressing [ENTER]at this field and selecting that page.
Refer to the printer’s manual for information about the code page(s)
the printer uses.
NOTE
When you change to Code Page 437, any changes made to the Code
Page 850 character set will be lost, and vice versa.
• CPT Delimiters: The 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s “command pass-
through” feature lets the Card recognize printer-control commands
and transparently pass them through to the printer. A two-character
delimiter (the default setting is “&%”) signals the card to pass the
command through.
Select the new delimiter by typing the corresponding hexadecimal
character codes (refer to Appendix B) in the spaces on the screen.
See Section 8.4.3 for more information on the command pass-through
feature.

• Auto Printer Sharing: When Auto Printer Sharing is enabled, you can
print from either the host or the PC. Like pitch correction, you can
turn this option ON and OFF from the Printer-Control Screen (see
Section 7.6.1).
NOTE
DOS print jobs will only print during DOS sessions. If you hotkey to a
host session while printing a DOS job, printing will be suspended until
you return to the DOS session.
• Orientation (3812 only): Use this option to select the default print
orientation. Your choices are Computer Output Reduction (COR),
Portrait, or Landscape. You will be prompted for the number of the
printer session to modify.
• APO (3812 only): Use this option to enable or disable Automatic Page
Orientation. When enabled together with COR orientation (see the
preceding paragraph), landscape orientation will be automatically
selected if the page is wider than it is high. Portrait will be selected if
the paper is higher than it is wide. (See Section 8.2 for more
information.) You will be prompted for the number of the printer
session to modify.
• Paper Size: Use this option to select the size of paper used in the
printer as follows:
Normal:
Letter size: 8.5 x 11 in. (216 x 280 mm) or
Legal size: 8.5 x 14 in. (216 x 356 mm)

7.5 Printing
Printing from either DOS or host applications on the attached printer is a
standard feature. To print from DOS, use either the DOS print command
or print through a software program. When printing host jobs, specify the
attached printer’s host ID. This lets the host route the print job to the
proper printer. The system operator will assign an ID to the attached
printer when configuring the printer on the host.

7.5.1 THE PRINTER-CONTROL SCREEN
The Printer-Control Screen controls host printing sent to the attached
printer. The PC is unaware that printing is taking place, even in a DOS
session, host printing can continue without interruption. However, DOS
printing does not continue in a host session.
Certain printer functions are controlled from the Printer-Control
Screen. While in emulation, hotkey to the session assigned to the printer.
The Printer-Control Screen will appear; it’s divided into three (3) sections,
as shown in Table 7-2 on the next page and described on pages 57 through

8. Advanced Features
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card has some unique features that come
in handy with certain applications that require extra productivity tools.
These added features include Record/Playback, 3812 printer emulations,
5219 printer emulations, a special command language, and command
pass-through.
8.1 Record/Playback
With the Record/Playback feature, you can record a sequence of
keystrokes and play them back later by pressing only three keys,
which cuts down on repetition.
Use these keys to control the Record/Playback feature:
Keystroke
Function
[ALT][F10]Record a sequence of keystrokes (functions as the
<Record>
key on a 5250 keyboard)
[ALT][F8] Playback a sequence of keystrokes (functions as the <Play>
key on a 5250 keyboard)
[ALT][F7] Delete a recorded keystroke sequence
[ALT][F9] Clear all recorded keystroke sequences
8.1.1 RECORDING A SEQUENCE
To record a keystroke sequence, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the [ALT]key, then press [F10]to enter Record
mode. A blinking Rappears in the lower left-hand corner of the
screen. The number to the right of the blinking Ris the number of
keystrokes available for recording (maximum of 1,000).
2. Press the key (any of [F1]through [F10]or [0]through [9])
to assign as the “trigger key” for the recorded sequence. (You might
want to write down each “trigger key” and its associated sequence in
the NOTES pages at the end of this manual.)
3. Type the keystroke sequence to be recorded.
4. When the keystroke sequence is completed, press [ALT][F10]
again to save the sequence and exit the Record mode.

5. To permanently save a recorded sequence to the PC’s hard disk,
hotkey to DOS, then go to the drive and directory where the 5250
Remote Emulator Card’s software is stored. Type SAVEKEYSand
press [ENTER]. A message will appear indicating that the recorded
keys have been saved. (Each time you start emulation, SAVEKEYS.DAT
will be loaded so the saved keystroke sequences can be used.)
8.1.2 PLAYING A RECORDED SEQUENCE
Follow these steps to play back a recorded sequence:
1. Press [ALT][F8]to enter Play mode. A blinking Pappears in the
lower left-hand corner of the screen.
2. Press the “trigger key” (any of [F1]through [F10]or [0]through
[9]) assigned to the recorded sequence you want to play back.
3. The playback begins at the cursor location. When it ends, Play mode
is automatically exited.
8.1.3 DELETING A SEQUENCE
To delete a recorded sequence, press [ALT][F7]. A blinking Dappears
in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. Press the “trigger key” (any
of [F1]through [F10]or [0]through [9]) assigned to the recorded
sequence you want to delete, and the sequence will be deleted.
8.1.4 CLEARING ALL SEQUENCES
To clear all currently recorded keystroke sequences, press [ALT][F9].
A prompt in the lower left-hand corner of the screen asks, “Clear All
(Y/N)?” To clear all the recorded sequences, press Y.
8.2 3812 Printer Emulation
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card lets a local (attached to the PC) laser
printer that supports HP or PPDS modes emulate the IBM 3812 (non-
IPDS) printer. The 3812 printer provides font-changing capability, text
rotation, compression features called Computer Output Reduction (COR),
and Automatic Page Orientation (APO). The 5250 Remote Emulator
Card’s 3812 printer emulation provides font changes and a true 3812 COR
emulation. It also obeys host commands for duplexing like the IBM 3816
printer.

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
The system operator will specify a default font ID when configuring the
3812 address on the host system. The default font ID should be the most
commonly used typestyle. The system operator should select one of the
typestyle numbers from the Typestyle Reference Chart in Appendix C
with an asterisk (*) indicating the default font ID, then change it in the
document, as necessary.
8.2.1 DATA PROCESSING
To change font IDs for a data-processing report, add the font number to
the CL or OCL printer statement (for the System/36, convert the font
number to hexadecimal before adding it to the printer statement). Only
the font IDs marked with an asterisk (*) in the Typestyle Reference Chart
in Appendix C can be used in host-printer statements.
The 3812’s COR feature rotates data-processing reports to landscape
orientation and compresses the text to fit 198 columns x 66 lines on the
page. The steps below describe printing using the COR feature. Refer to
Figure 8-1 on page 66.
1. If a Set Text Orientation (STO) command is specified, the report
prints using the STO command to control orientation in the specified
font. If an STO command is not specified, the report continues to
block 2.
2. If APO is enabled (see Section 6.3.3), the report continues to block 3.
With APO disabled, the report continues to block 4.
3. At block 3, the page size is calculated. If the page size is valid
(8 1/2" x 14" or smaller) the report continues to block 6; the report
prints at block 6 depending upon the page layout. An invalid page size
(larger than 8 1/2" x 14") causes the report to continue to block 4.
4. At block 4, the orientation selected in the configuration program
determines the output. If landscape is selected, the report prints in
landscape using the specified font. If portrait is selected, the report
prints in portrait using the specified font.
5. A COR override from the host determines the report orientation.
Host COR overrides include:
System/36 OCL: Text-Yes or Rotate-0
System/38 CL: PRT QLTY (*STD) or (*NLQ), or PGRTT(0)
AS/400: PRT QLTY (*STD) or (*NLQ) and PAGRTT (*COR)

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
A host COR override causes the report to print in portrait with the
selected font. If the host does not override the COR, the report prints
in landscape orientation with the CPI and LPI reduced as shown in
Figure 8-1.
The printer prints a maximum of 182 columns x 64 lines (IBM PPDS
mode) or 198 columns x 66 lines (HP mode) when you use COR to
control the output.

8.2.2 WORD PROCESSING
When the system operator configures the printer on the host, a default
font ID is configured for the printer, which should be the most commonly
used font. The WP program may also have a default font ID. Since the
default font ID can vary depending on the system setup, ask your system
operator if you have questions about the default font ID.
To change the font, either use the font-change commands in the Card’s
command language, or select a font ID number within the word processing
program. Refer to the WP program’s manual for information on changing
font IDs within the program. See Section 8.4.3 for information on font-
change commands for word-processing documents.
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card allows bolding, underlining, and
super/subscripting by recognizing the host commands for these features
in both WP and DP applications. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card uses a
shadow print for bolding, even on small and italic fonts.
8.2.3 PAGE LENGTH
The printer prints up to 66 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing
may be compressed slightly to fit), or 64 lines at 6 LPI in IBM PPDS mode,
on each page of 8.5" x 11" letter-size paper. The System/36 only allows
65 lines per page on 8.5" x 11" letter-size paper.
The printer prints up to 72 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing
may be slightly compressed to fit) or 70 lines at 6 LPI in IBM PPDS mode
on each page of 8.27" x 11.69" A4 size paper.
8.2.4 PAPER SIZE
Configure the printer setup on Card for the paper size used most. The
Card only recognizes these paper sizes:
Letter Paper: 8.5" x 11" (216 x 280 mm)
Legal Paper: 8.5" x 14" (216 x 356 mm)
A4 Paper:
8.27" x 11.69" (210 x 297 mm)
If you choose any other paper dimensions in the word-processing program,
the 5250 Remote Emulator Card ignores them and uses the previous
paper-size choice. The “No Paper Size” selection uses the paper installed
in the tray, regardless of the paper’s size.
8.2.5 BIN SELECTION
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card selects paper from bin 2 only if the
optional paper tray is installed in the printer. If bin 2 or 3 is chosen in a
host document, the printer will print from bin 1 unless the optional paper
tray is installed.

duplexing in data processing, type one of these commands from the Card’s
command language into the first line of the document.
¬D0for simplex printing
¬D1for landscape duplex printing
¬D2for portrait duplex printing
Refer to Section 8.3.6 for more information.

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
8.3 5219 Printer Emulation
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s 5219 emulation is for LaserJet printers.
The HP LaserJet printer file is automatically used when 5219 emulation is
selected.
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card allows bolding, underlining, and
super/subscript by recognizing the host commands for these features
for DP or WP applications. The different character styles and pitch are
controlled through the IBM typestyle number or font ID. The 5250
Remote Emulator Card uses the IBM typestyle number to select an HP font
from a cartridge. The cartridges shown in the Typestyle Reference Chart in
Appendix C are the only fonts supported.
The system operator will specify a default font ID when configuring the
5219 on the host system, which should be the font ID most commonly
used. Select one of the font-ID numbers from the Typestyle Reference
Chart in Appendix C with an asterisk (*) indicating the default font ID,
then change it as necessary in the DP or WP document.
If data-processing reports are sent to the printer, typestyles in the
printer’s CL or OCL statement must be changed.
8.3.1 DATA PROCESSING
Condensed print and “8 lpi” commands do not work in data-processing
documents, because 5219 printers only understand font-ID commands.
For DP documents, such as RPG-generated printouts, the Card uses
the system-default typestyle unless you change the fonts by specifying the
typestyle in the OCL or CL printer statement. Since the host only accepts
certain fonts in OCL and CL statements, you can use only the font IDs
marked with an asterisk (*) from the Typestyle Reference Chart in
Appendix C.
To change typestyles in DisplayWrite/36, use one of the following
commands:
[CMD20], selection No. 1, “Document Option”
[CMD20], selection No. 4, “Display Current Format”
[CMD9], selection No. 7, “Change Font”
®
See the DisplayWrite user’s guide for more information on changing
typestyles.
8.3.2 WORD PROCESSING
When you configure a 5219 address on the host, you must select a default
font ID. The normal value is 11 (or 0B in hex), which is a 10-pitch font.
69

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
There are two ways to change fonts for word-processing documents:
either select a typestyle within the word-processing program or use a font-
change command from the Card’s command language in the document.
The word-processing program’s manual should describe how to change
the typestyles within the program.
Some word-processing programs, such as Text Management/38, do not
allow more than one typestyle number per line of text. In such cases, use
the font-change commands in the Card’s command language (see
Section 8.4.1).
8.3.3 PAGE LENGTH
The 5219 emulation allows 65 lines per page at 6 LPI for word-processing
documents and 66 lines per page at 6 LPI for data-processing documents.
The HP LaserJet printer allows a maximum of 63 lines per page at 6 LPI.
To print 65 lines, the 5250 Remote Emulator Card increases line spacing
from 6 lines per inch to about 6.25 lines per inch. This small change is
normally not noticeable. A similar small change is made to 8-LPI printing
on 8.5" x 11" letter size paper.
The printer prints up to 72 lines at 6 LPI in HP mode (the line spacing
may be slightly compressed to fit), or 70 lines at 6 LPI in IBM mode, on
each page of 8.27" x 11.69" A4 size paper.
8.3.4 PAPER SIZE
Configure the printer setup on the Card for the paper size used most.
The Card only recognizes these paper sizes:
Letter Paper: 8.5" x 11" (216 x 280 mm)
Legal Paper: 8.5" x 14" (216 x 356 mm)
A4 Paper:
8.27" x 11.69" (210 x 297 mm)
If you choose any other paper dimensions in the word-processing program,
the 5250 Remote Emulator Card ignores them and uses the previous
paper-size choice. The “No Paper Size” selection uses the paper installed in
the tray, regardless of the paper’s size.
Selecting legal or A4 size paper dimensions on the DisplayWrite/36
“Change Page Format” screen causes the LaserJet display window to flash
“Legal Paper.” If the paper dimensions specified are different from letter,
legal, or A4, the paper size is unchanged.
In Text Management/38, the System/38 does not send paper
dimensions to the printer. Instead, it sends a forms message for legal paper
to the controlling workstation assigned to the printer. To change the paper
tray, take these steps:
70

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
1. Insert a paper tray of the proper size and press the printer’s RESET
button.
2. Power the printer OFF and back ON.
3. Release the print job at the host.
The System/38 uses a “Printer Support Facility” that sends the margins
and other document-form specifications to a printer only when these
are different from the previous document or when the printer has been
turned OFF. Either way, the LaserJet must be reset when a different paper
tray is installed.
The line-format screens in DisplayWrite/36 (Command 20) also permit
“Justify,” which aligns the right margin. “One-Half Justify” causes only
one-half as much alignment of the right margin. For best results in using
justification, change the zone width from “6” to “1.”
8.3.5 ENVELOPE PRINTING
To print envelopes, specify typestyle number 5, landscape orientation, with
the first line of the address on line 30 and a left margin of 55. A trial run
with a blank sheet of paper will often help identify an error in positioning
the address.
Manual Feed: Select the “Envelope Feed” option in the word-processing
program’s paper-feed selections and a paper size of 11" x 11". The printer
will flash “Manual Feed” on the front-panel display window. Manually feed
the envelope into the printer.
Envelope Tray: Select “Envelope Feed” and a paper size of 7.5" or 9.5"
(or 22 cm). The printer automatically finds the envelope tray (if this has
been installed) and prints the envelope.
Envelope Feeder: Select “Envelope Feed” and a paper width of 7.5"
o 9.5" (or 22 cm). The printer automatically finds the envelope feeder
(if this has been installed) and prints the envelope.
NOTE
The LaserJet may eject a blank page when you change print orientation.
8.3.6 DUPLEX PRINTING
Some LaserJet models can print both simplex (single sided) and duplex
(double sided); for that matter, they can print both long-edge (landscape)
and short-edge (portrait) duplex. However, changing the printer’s
simplex/ duplex mode through its front panel can be time consuming.
Instead, place printing commands on the first line of the document to
control simplex, landscape-duplex, and portrait-duplex printing. Enter one
71
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
of these commands from the Card’s command language on the first line of
the document:
¬D0for simplex printing
¬D1for landscape-duplex printing
¬D2for portrait-duplex printing
If they are not on the first line, the commands will not become active until
the following page. When the printer receives the printing command, it
will do all printing in that mode until another printing command is
received. In other words, if the printer is most often in simplex mode and
is printing in the duplex mode, be sure to put a simplex command at the
end of the document to return the printer to simplex mode. Envelope
printing between documents won’t change the printer’s mode.
On some duplex printing, if the last page is blank on the back side, the
information for the last page may remain in the printer until the next
printing job is received. To print the last page, take the printer off-line by
pressing the ONLINE button, then press the FORM FEED button to print
the last page. Put the printer back on-line by pressing the ONLINE button
again.
NOTE
Duplexing is supported in word-processing applications on the AS/400,
but the AS/400 does not support duplex printing for data processing.
8.4 The Command Language
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card responds to a command language that
consists of special character sequences you can place in your documents.
The Card recognizes these sequences and sends corresponding codes to
the printer to control the printer’s output. You can use these commands in
either data-processing or word-processing documents.
The Card’s command language consists of three types of commands:
font-change commands, escape commands, and command-pass-through
commands. These are described in the next three sections.
8.4.1 FONT-CHANGE COMMANDS
To change fonts using font-change commands, type the font-change
command into the document at the place where the font change is to take
effect. The command is immediately active in the document; the Card
prints the specified font until it encounters the next font-change
command.
72

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
®
For example, when the ProCollection cartridge is loaded in the printer,
the codes embedded in the following sentence will cause the word “saves”
®
to print in bold Helvetica instead of plain Courier:
On screen: Quality ¬Q45 saves ¬Q85 you time and money.
Prints as: Quality saves you time and money.
NOTE
The host may send the original font code to the printer at the beginning
of each page. If this happens, put a font-change command at the
beginning of each page of the document.
If the font-change command changes the pitch, the host may continue
to format each line with the original font-ID pitch. Text Management/38
and some other word-processing programs don’t let you specify more than
one font ID per line.
Font IDs and font-change commands for the fonts and font cartridges
used by the 3812 and 5219 printer emulations are listed in Appendix C.
Format font-change commands this way:
• 3812 Printer Emulation: Enter font-change commands for 3812
emulation using the format ¬Qn, where ¬is a “logical not” (Shift 6),
Qindicates a font change, and n is the typestyle number (font ID).
• 5219 Printer Emulation: Enter either of two types of font-change
commands that you can use with 5219 emulation:
¬QHL selects fonts from HP font cartridges: ¬is a “logical not” (Shift
6), Qindicates a font change, Hindicates the HP font cartridge, and L
is one or more uppercase letters that indicate a particular font in the
cartridge;
¬QIn selects fonts from IBM font cartridges: ¬is a “logical not”
(Shift 6), Qindicates a font change, Iindicates the IBM font cartridge,
and n is the typestyle number (font ID).
8.4.2 ESCAPE COMMANDS
You can also insert commands into your document that perform other
functions, such as enabling true 6-LPI printing, causing the Card to ignore
format commands from the host, and sending the printer an ASCII ESC
command. These commands, shown below, are similar to the font-change
commands.

host.
You can send an ESC (escape) print-control command to the printer with
the ¬Excommand (HP mode only); xstands for a sequence of characters
that forms the rest of the command. For example, ¬E(s3B would begin
bold printing; see an HP operator’s manual for a list of the (sXX
commands.
When in HP mode, the printer may compress line spacing to fit 66 lines
onto a page. This might be undesirable at times, especially with preprinted
forms that must align correctly. In these cases, the ¬TYcommand prevents
the printer from compressing the line spacing, and ¬TNpermits it again.
Use the ¬Iand ¬Scommands to remove unwanted host commands
from a print file. For example, when you print with forms-generating
software, the host recognizes the files as text files and formats them with
unwanted carriage returns and line feeds. Placing the ¬Iat the end of a
line and ¬Sat the start of the next line causes the 5250 Remote Emulator
Card to remove the host’s carriage returns and line feeds and send only
the data to the printer.
8.4.3 COMMAND PASS-THROUGH
The command-pass-through (hex-transparency) feature gives you access
to all of a printer’s built-in features, even if these features are not normally
available through the host software. With the command-pass-through
feature, you can place printer-specific command sequences into your
document, and the 5250 Remote Emulator Card will recognize the
sequences and “pass the commands through” to the printer. Take these
steps to use this feature:.
1. Find the command (control codes) for your desired print feature
in the printer’s manual.
2. Convert the control codes to hexadecimal.
3. Type the delimiter &%(or any custom delimiter configured as
described in Section 6.3.3) into the document at the point in the text
74
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
where the feature is to take effect. Type in the “turn feature ON”
printer command, then type in the delimiter again. No spaces are
allowed.
4. Move the cursor to the point in the text that you want to end the print
feature. Type in the delimiter, followed by the “turn feature OFF”
printer command, and then the delimiter again. Again, no spaces are
allowed.
For example: If [ESC][E]turns bold printing ON and [ESC][F]turns
bold printing OFF, first convert [ESC][E]to the hexadecimal 1B45
([ESC]= “1B” and [E]= “45”) and [ESC][F]to 1B46. Then insert
the commands into the text like this:
This is a &%1B45&%bold&%1B46&% word.
The above sentence will print on the printer as:
This is a bold word.
NOTES
Spaces are not allowed between the delimiter and the hex code.
Only hexadecimal digits (the numbers 0 through 9 and the letters
A through F) may appear between delimiters.
Errors in the command-pass-through sequence will cause the 5250
Remote Emulator Card to ignore the command and resume printing at
the point the error occurred.
Command pass-through may invalidate horizontal spacing.

9. Troubleshooting
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is designed for easy installation and
reliable operation. However, as with all electronic equipment, difficulties
can arise. This chapter is intended to help you diagnose and solve these
problems.
When trouble does crop up, the cause frequently turns out to be host
configuration, emulator configuration, or modem settings. The devices
emulated by the 5250 Remote Emulator Card must be recognized by the
host, so make certain the configuration of the emulation software matches
that of the host. Make sure the modem settings match the type of network
the emulator is operating with. If this doesn’t solve the problem, take these
steps:
1. Verify that all of the installation steps have been completed
(see Chapters 4 and 5).
2. Run the Card’s diagnostic program.
3. Write down any error messages displayed or strange system-operating
quirks you observe.
4. Try to find the problem and its solution in Sections 9.1 through 9.3.
5. If you’re still stuck, contact your supplier. Go to Section 9.4.

Action:
Contact the system operator; he or she might need to IPL
the host. Make sure the host/modem cable is attached
to the emulator. If you can’t find the problem on the
premises at either end, have the telephone company
check the line.
Cause:
Action:
SDLC encoding not set properly.
The host’s and emulator’s encoding settings must match:
either both NRZ or both NRZI. If you’re unsure what
the host’s setting is, change this setting on the emulator
(see Section 6.2.4) and try to bring it on line again.
Cause:
Action:
Either host or Card is configured incorrectly.
Make sure the host is configured for the emulator, that
the emulator address is correct at the host, and that the
host configuration and the local configuration match.
Cause:
Action:
Modem is not the proper type or is not strapped properly.
Verify that both modems are of the proper type for the
network. Make sure the modems can communicate at the
chosen line speed. Check that the modem is “strapped”
for the network type (half- or full-duplex, etc.). Perform
loopback or end-to-end tests to make sure host-site and
emulator-site modems can communicate with each other.
Host not varied on or subsystem not started.
Vary on the host as described in Section 7.1. Some hosts
require the line, device(s), and subsystem to be varied on
before the host can communicate. Make sure the
subsystem is started.
Cause:
Action:
After you connect the two modems, or when the Card is directly
connected to a host without modems, DCD and DSR should be lit.
Once the host starts polling, the RX LED should flash. If everything
is configured properly, RTS should light, followed immediately by CTS,
followed immediately by TX.
If DCD and/or DSR are not lit, eiter there is a problem with the
configuration of the modem or CSU/DSU, or the cable between the
emulator and the modem or CSU/DSU is defective.

9.2 Error Messages
The error messages in this section are generated by the 5250 Remote
Emulator Card during configuration, while starting emulation, or during
active emulation. The IBM Systems/34, /36, /38, and AS/400 have various
error messages to help identify communication problems between the host
and the PC or PC printer. The IBM host also has a “help” facility designed
for error-message recovery. Refer to the IBM Technical Manual for further
details.

Keyboard Definition File Not Found: The emulation software is unable to
locate the keyboard-definition file. If the current disk and directory are
correct, copy the three files KEYBOARD.BAS, KEYBOARD.CHG, and
KEYBOARD.DEF from the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software diskette
into the current disk and directory.
Printer Definition File Not Found: The emulation software is unable to
locate the printer-definition file. Verify the printer configuration; if it is
correct, reinstall the emulation software.

9.2.3 PC SUPPORT/400 ERROR MESSAGES
Handler is already resident: If PC Support is not active, reboot the system.
9.2.4 HOST ERROR MESSAGES
The host system also has a set of error messages to report problems with
communication between the host and the display station. These four-digit
error messages consist of codes 0040 through 0054. See the IBM Technical
Reference Manual for your host type (System/34, /36, /38, or AS/400) for
further information on host error messages.
Use the [ERROR RESET]key to clear the error condition and proceed
with the host communications.
9.3 Application Compatibility
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card is compatible with most PC application
programs. The following information may help prevent any conflicts.
9.3.1 MICROSOFT WINDOWS
The 5250 Remote Emulator Card software is Windows compatible if used
under a Windows DOS partition. Included with the 5250 Remote Emulator
Card’s software are two *.PIFs (Program Information Files) for starting
emulation from Windows. You must enter the pathname of the *.PIF file
on the command line of the NEW PROGRAM OBJECT window when you
create an icon for the emulation software.
9.3.2 DOS SHELL
Make sure all programs, including the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s
emulation program, are loaded before you load the DOS Shell. If the
emulation program is loaded from DOS Shell, the next application
program may not load properly, since the PC’s memory is not fully free.
9.3.3 43- OR 50-LINE MODE
The ANSI.SYS screen driver must be installed when you use programs with
®
43- or 50-line mode, such as Quattro Pro. Otherwise, the number of lines
might revert to another size when you hotkey to a host session and then
back to the DOS session.
The screen colors may change during the hotkeying for some programs
(such as Microsoft Works), but the data will remain unaffected and the
screen colors will be restored after the next startup.

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
9.3.4 HANDSON
®
When you use HandsOn or Novell Menu for file transfer, the PC clock
might lose the proper time, but data is unaffected.
9.4 Calling Your Supplier
If you determine that your 5250 Remote Emulator Card is malfunctioning,
do not attempt to alter or repair it. It contains no user-serviceable parts.
Contact your supplier: The problem may be solvable over the phone.
Before you do, make a record of the history of the problem. Your
supplier will be able to provide more efficient and accurate assistance
if you have a complete description, including:
• the nature and duration of the problem,
• when the problem occurs,
• the components involved in the problem,
• any particular application that, when used, appears to create the
problem or make it worse,
• the revision level of your software (this is printed on the diskette label),
• the date you purchased the Card,
• the make and model of any attached printer, and
• the type of host system to which the Card is attached.
9.5 Shipping and Packaging
If you need to transport or ship your Card:
• Package it carefully. We recommend that you use the original
container.
• If you are shipping the Card for repair, include its software diskette.
If you are returning the Card, make sure you include everything you
received with the unit. Before you ship, contact your supplier to get
a Return Authorization (RA) number.

Appendix A: Names of Executable
Files
This appendix lists the filenames for the executable programs included
with the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s software. An executable program is
a set of step-by-step instructions the computer follows to complete a task.
Some of the programs listed here are meant to be run directly by the user
and some are meant to be executed by the emulator (“called” by the
emulation program).
A.1 User-Run Programs
EM5251R.EXE
The main emulation program. To execute this
program at a DOS prompt, change to the
emulation software’s directory and type EM5251R.

This utility program helps to determine which type
of keyboard is being used. To execute this program
at a DOS prompt, change to the emulation
software’s directory and type EMKBCHK.
RCONFIG.EXE
SAVEKEYS.EXE
The configuration program. To execute this
program at a DOS prompt, change to the
emulation software’s directory and type RCONFIG.
Use this program to save keystrokes recorded
during the record/playback feature. You will need
to hotkey out of emulation before you can run this
program. At the DOS prompt, change to the
emulation software’s directory and type
SAVEKEYS.
WININST.EXE
This program adds the emsetcommand to the
WINSTART.BAT file. If WINSTART.BAT does not

Appendix B: Code-Set Tables
The table that comprises the rest of this appendix shows decimal and
hexadecimal codes and the corresponding characters in the U. S. National
EBCDIC and U. S. National ASCII code sets.
Regarding the U. S. National EBCDIC code set:
• The first 64 characters, 0 to 63 decimal or 0 to 3F hex, are not listed
here because they are very-seldom-used control codes that the 5250
Remote Emulator Card ignores.
• For the 8D, AD, BC and DA hex codes, either of the two listed
characters might print, depending on the printer type or emulation.
• For lists of corresponding characters in EBCDIC versions other than
U. S. National, refer to the IBM 5250 Function Reference Manual,
SA21-9247-6.
Regarding the U.S. National ASCII code set:
• Only the standard 7-bit code set, consisting of character codes 0 to 127
decimal or 0 to 7F hex, is shown here. Many proprietary 8-bit extended
ASCII code sets exist, but none of them are standard.

5250 REMOTE EMULATOR CARD
Appendix C: Typestyle (FGID)
Tables
The tables on the following pages list the IBM typestyle numbers (font IDs)
that the 5250 Remote Emulator Card uses to select fonts internal to the
printer and from HP font cartridges. Font-change commands for each font
are also listed (see Section 8.4.1). As on the cartridges themselves,
cartridge fonts are listed in ascending order by pitch.
Typestyle numbers with an asterisk (*) next to them are acceptable IBM
font IDs for device configuration and OCL or CL printer commands (in
hexadecimal). Typestyle numbers in parentheses are alternatives that more
closely match the IBM CPI spacing of the font.
Font-change commands begin with a logical not (¬), which is [UPPER
SHIFT] [6] on U. S. keyboards. The caret (^) symbol may be substituted in
non-U.S. applications.
Remember that you can’t right-justify proportional fonts with the IBM
justify command.
C.1 5219 Emulation
Tables C-1 and C-2 on the next few pages list IBM typestyle numbers (font
IDs) and font-change commands for resident (internal to the printer) HP
LaserJet fonts and HP font cartridges with the 5219 printer emulation.
NOTE
Typestyle number 86 prints the resident 10-CPI Courier font at 12 CPI
spacing in portrait (¬QXM). Typestyle number 85 prints the resident 16-
CPI Line Printer font at 12-CPI spacing in landscape (¬QXN).

Appendix D: Keyboard-Scan
Codes
The keyboard diagrams on the next two pages show the four types of
keyboards you will normally encounter in 5250 Remote Emulator Card
applications, along with the factory-default values of their scan codes. You
can change the scan codes that the Card relays from the keyboard
connected to the Card’s PC by using the Scan Code Customize option
under the Advanced Functions—Keyboard menu in the configuration
software (see Section 6.3.2). To make sure which code maps to which
function, see Appendix E.

Appendix E: Keyboard Templates
Table E-1 below gives a general definition for each 5250 (host) key. Use the
table with the keyboard templates on the next eight pages to keep track of
where the functions you need are. There is one keyboard template for
each possible combination of PC Keyboard and Emulated Keyboard (see
Section 6.2.2). In addition, there are two pairs of templates for the
Enhanced keyboard, one for the USA / CAN (ORIG) language and one
for the USA / CAN (TERM) langauge (see Section 6.2.3). (We’ve included
an Emulator Card template with each keyboard template to give you a set
of single-page quick reference guides.)
Use the information in this appendix with that in Appendix D when you
want to customize your keyboard’s scan codes.
Table E-1. Key Functions

of a repeating key and perform the function
assigned in the host’s program instead.
[DEL]
[DUP]
Deletes the character where the cursor is located.
Requests that the host program duplicate the data
from the same field in the previous record.
Erases data entered in all input fields. The cursor
will move to the top left corner of the screen.
[ERASE INPUT]
[ERROR RESET] Unlocks keyboard after it is locked because of an
error condition. Will also reset the help, insert,
command, and system-request modes.
[FIELD +]
[FIELD –]
Can be used as a field-exit key in all fields.
