Figure 5-1.  An example of a split screen
When a screen is split horizontally, as it is in Figure 5-1, the multisessions terminal always assumes the
top window is window 1, and the bottom window is window 2.  When a screen is split vertically, the left
window is window 1 and the right window is window 2.  If the screen is not split, the multisessions
software considers the first page as window 1 and the second as window 2.  Use the F4 key to move the
cursor to a different window.
The multisessions terminal tracks the current session according to the window where it appears.  If the
session appears in window 2, the terminal considers the session number 2, even if the Model 3395/3395A
Terminal Server session number is 1 or 3.  The multisessions software always opens the first session in
window 1.
Establishing the First Session
When the “Done” message appears at the bottom of the terminal screen, press the <Return> key.  The
“Service Name=” prompt appears at the bottom of the screen, whether it is split or not:

This prompt is part of the multisessions user interface, and you use it to establish the first session in each
window.
At the “Service name=” prompt, enter a LAT service name, a Telnet domain name, or an Internet address.
The terminal server interprets your entry as a LAN destination and use it in a CONNECT command.  When
the terminal server establishes a session, the multisessions software displays the session in window 1.  If
your terminal server has a preferred service already defined, you can simply press the <Return> key at the
“Service name=” prompt.
Figure 5-2 shows an example of how a split screen might look after you entered the Telnet domain name
