Black Box 5250 Manual De Usuario

There are two major hotkey sequences, Direct Access and Round-Robin:

• Direct Access: This key sequence moves directly to a host session.

(To be used, this sequence must be enabled during configuration—
see Section 6.2.2.) For example, to move to host session 1, press and
hold [ALT] and press [1]; to move to session 2, press and hold [ALT]
and press [2], etc. To return to DOS, press and hold [ALT] and press
[0]

or [8]. If an unconfigured session is pressed, the next available

session will become active.

• Round-Robin: This key sequence moves sequentially through the

available sessions as illustrated below. Starting at the current session,
this sequence advances to the highest session and then to DOS. From
DOS, this sequence continues back to the lowest session. (The printer-
control screen is the printer session.) To use this method, press and
hold [ALT] and press [ESC] (or the customized sequence—see
Section 6.3.2

).

Different sequences allow you to jump between applications and sessions
while in Windows.

• Round-Robin (Scrolling) through Applications: Starting at a currently

active emulation, press [ALT] and then [TAB] to scroll through the
active applications. This sequence advances to each of the currently
active applications.
