Specifies the name of the device description.
This is a required parameter.
| Top |
Specifies the device class for this display station or printer.
This device description is for a device connected to a local work station controller.
This device description is for a device connected to a remote work station controller.
This device description is for a virtual display station. Through a virtual display station, users can access (pass through to) their own system from a remote system. A virtual display station allows the remote system or a personal computer to emulate the interface of the user's own system.
This device description is for a display station connected to an SNA pass-through advanced program-to-program communications (APPC) controller. SNA pass-through support allows the user to connect this display station with host logical unit (LU) types 0 through 3 applications.
Note: ASCII devices must be configured with a device class of *LCL (including ASCII devices attached with modems). To use ASCII display stations as virtual devices, create a virtual device description with the device type of the twinaxial display station that the ASCII display station emulates (for example, a virtual device of device type 3196 for an ASCII display station).
| Top |
Specifies the type of device this description represents.
The following type codes are valid for ASCII devices:
Note: Specifying *CALC allows port sharing for ASCII devices. ASCII port sharing allows different device types, using different physical parameters, to use the same port (at different times) without needing to manually reconfigure the port. If *CALC is specified for this parameter, the system automatically calculates the device types for displays attached to this port.
More information on ASCII port sharing is in the Local Device Configuration book, SC41-5121 book or the ASCII Work Station Reference, SA41-3130.
The following are trademarks of Data General, TeleVideo, DEC, Wyse and are valid for ASCII devices:
| Top |
Specifies the model number of the device for this description.
This is a required parameter.
The possible values for the device model for each device type are:
For ASCII devices only:
Specify this value if the model number cannot be easily determined for this display station. The system will assign a model number (if the device has a model number). The model number assigned by the system may not be the actual model number of your display station; see the following table to determine the model number which will be assigned by using *ASCII. It is recommended that you determine your display station's model number if at all possible, and enter that number.
The possible choices are:
The following are trademarks of Data General, TeleVideo, DEC, Wyse and are valid for ASCII devices:
| Top |

Note: 3197D2 emulation for an IBM 3151 model 31/41 requires the installation of a "cartridge for expansion" (part number 81X5575) in addition to the appropriate setting of this parameter.
The default value for this parameter is 3196A2.
An 80-column display is used.
A 132-column display is used.
| Top |
Specifies the port number for local devices.
For twinaxial devices: Possible values range from 0 through 7.
For ASCII devices: Possible values range from 0 through 17 and indicate the port on the ASCII work station controller to which this device is attached. Without the 12-port expansion feature, ports 0 through 5 are valid. With the 12-port expansion feature, ports 6 through 17 are added.
| Top |
Specifies the switch setting for local twinaxial devices.
Valid values range from 0 to 6.
| Top |
Specifies the shared session number for a twinaxial display station. This parameter is valid only for 3486 and 3487 configured device types.
Note: Displays that share session addresses can be attached only to the 2661, 6050, 9146, or the 915A local work station controllers, or to the 5494 remote work station controller.
The shared session number is 0.
The shared session number is 1.
The shared session number is 2.
The shared session number is 3.
| Top |
Specifies the local location address for this device.
The possible values range from 00 to FE. The type of controller to which the device is being attached determines which values are valid.
| Top |
Specifies, for ASCII devices, whether the device being configured is emulating a supported ASCII device type (TYPE parameter). When an ASCII device is configured, choices for the following parameters are restricted to the valid range for that device:
For ASCII devices emulating supported ASCII device types, these restrictions may not be applicable (the emulating device might have a wider range of choices for these parameters than the emulated ASCII device does). When EMLASCII(*YES) is specified, these parameter restrictions are not enforced; the user is allowed to enter the full range of values for these parameters, but also is responsible for verifying that the values selected are valid for the device being configured.
Specifies that the device being configured is one of the supported ASCII device types Device type (TYPE) parameter, and that the device-specific restrictions for the physical attachment, line speed, word length, type of parity, and stop bits parameters are to be enforced.

Specifies the country keyboard language identifier for this display station.
NOTES:
Instructs the system to use the QKBDTYPE system value.
Specify the 3-character country identifier (used for EBCDIC and ASCII) for this display station.
The following two tables can be used to confirm the appropriate value for this parameter, or to determine which ASCII display devices can be used with a specified language.
For example, assume a user wants to create a 3101 display device. The ASCII displays and device groups table shows that a 3101 display supports ASCII device group A. The Keyboard Mapping table shows that the valid language identifiers that can be used with device group A include AGB, AGI, CAB, CAI, FAB, FAI, ITB, ITI, UKB, UKI, USB, and USI.
The following keyboards can be specified by ASCII displays only if a customizing object is also used: ALI, BGB, CSB, ESB, HNB, LTB, LVB, MKB, PKB, PLB, RMB, RUB, SKB, SQB, TRB, UAB, and YGI.
Note: The GNB code is the current identifier for Greece. The GKB code was used prior to V2R1, and continues to be supported, but provides fewer characters than the recommended GNB code.

Specifies whether the (program controlled) blinking cursor is suppressed.
Note: The value specified for this parameter can be overridden by display stations that have a keyboard setup capability that allows the blinking cursor attribute to be changed.
Allows the cursor to blink for the 3179, 3180, 3196, 3197, 3476, 3477, 3486, 3487, 5251, 5291, and 5292 display devices.
The blinking cursor is suppressed.
| Top |
Specifies the device type and address of an additional device (if any) that is attached to the IEEE-488 port on the 5292 Model 2 device. Up to 31 plotters can be attached to the same IEEE-488 AUXDEV port on the 5292 Model 2, but at different IEEE-488 addresses. The valid additional device types are: 7371 (IBM 7371 Plotter), the 7372 (IBM 7372 Plotter), the 6180 (IBM 6180 Plotter), the 6182 (IBM 6182 Plotter), the 6184 (IBM 6184 Plotter), the 6185 (IBM 6185 Plotter), the 6186M1 (IBM 6186M1 Plotter), and the 6186M2 (IBM 6186M2 Plotter). The valid additional device address is a number from 1 to 31.
You can enter multiple values for this parameter.
| Top |
Specifies, for a remote display station, the device name of the printer associated with the display device. The device description of the work station printer named in this parameter must have already been created and must currently exist on the system. Both the printer and the display device must be attached to the same controller.
| Top |
Specifies, for remote display stations and printers, the maximum request unit (RU) length (in bytes) allowed.
The system determines the best value to use.
This is the recommended value.
Specify 241 or 247. These values are valid only for devices attached to X.25 networks. If the recommended value of *CALC is not specified, it is recommended that 241 be used for ELLC and 247 be used for QLLC. The values 245 and 256 can be specified, but the result is the same as specifying *CALC.
| Top |

Specifies the amount of time (in seconds) to wait for the device to respond to the activation request from the host IBM i. If the device does not respond within this time, it is considered not available.
Note: This parameter is valid only on switched lines and when *SNPT is specified for the DEVCLS parameter.
This parameter is valid only when *SNPT is specified for the DEVCLS parameter.
Specifies the activate time of 170 seconds.
Specify a number ranging from 1 through 2550 indicating the number of seconds before the device is considered not available.
| Top |
Specifies an inactivity timer (time-out) value for display devices. This parameter also specifies what happens when the time-out value is exceeded, dependent on other attributes of the device:
Note: This timer is not used by devices allocated to a subsystem (normal interactive use) because the subsystem always has a file open for the device. The timer is used by batch jobs that open and close files for the device.
For a connection using SNA pass-through (*SNPT) device class support, the default of *ATTACH maps to *NOMAX.
For a device with an application type value of *APPINIT, *CLTSSN, *DEVINIT, or *NRF, the default of *ATTACH maps to 1 minute.
For Post Telephone and Telegraph (*PTT) attachment, valid inactivity timer values are *SEC15 (15 seconds), *SEC30 (30 seconds), and 1 to 10 minutes. *ATTACH maps to *SEC30 (30 seconds).
For all other attachments, valid inactivity timer values are 1 to 30 minutes and *NOMAX. *ATTACH maps to *NOMAX for these attachments.
This value varies by the value specified on the Physical attachment (ATTACH) parameter and certain values on the Application type (APPTYPE) parameter and Device class (DEVCLS) parameter.
No maximum inactivity time is tracked (no inactivity timer is to be enforced).
A 15-second time-out period is used.
A 30-second time-out period is used.

| Top |
Specifies the sign-on (logon) text. This parameter is allowed when DEVCLS(*SNPT) or APPTYPE(*NRF) is specified. APPTYPE(*NRF) specifies the logon string that is sent to the host system when a request is made to establish a session. DEVCLS(*SNPT) specifies the sign-on (logon) text that is sent to the host system after starting SNA pass-through support.
This parameter also specifies the logon string that is sent to the system services control point (SSCP) on the host network when the file is opened for *NRF.
No text is sent to the host system.
Specify text that is sent to the host system. The text must be enclosed in apostrophes if it contains blanks or other special characters. All apostrophes within the text must be represented by two apostrophes. A maximum of 256 characters can be specified.
| Top |
Specifies the line speed in bits per second (bps).
The system uses the suggested setting for this device type.
*TYPE selects 19200 bits per second for all display stations except the 3101 display station for which 9600 bits per second is selected. For a 5150 A1 device or a device type of *CALC, *TYPE selects 1200 bits per second.
The system automatically calculates the line speed for displays attached to this port. If *CALC is specified, it must also be specified on the Type of parity (PARITY) parameter and the Word length (WORDLEN) parameter.
Note: Specifying *CALC allows port sharing for ASCII devices. ASCII port sharing allows different device types, using different physical parameters, to use the same port (at different times) without needing to manually reconfigure the port.
More information on ASCII port sharing is in the Local Device Configuration book, SC41-5121 book or the ASCII Work Station Reference, SA41-3130.
Specify the line speed. Valid values are: 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 3600, 4800, 7200, 9600, 19200, or 38400.
| Top |
Specifies, for ASCII devices, the word length (bits per character) used to communicate over the attachment between the ASCII work station controller and the device. For modem and Post Telephone and Telegraph (PTT) attachments, the word length must be the same as the word length selected for the modem.

| Top |
Specifies, for ASCII devices, the type of parity used to communicate over the attachment between the ASCII work station controller and the device. For modem and Post Telephone and Telegraph (PTT) attachments, the type of parity must be the same as the type of parity selected for the modem. For auxiliary printers connected to the auxiliary port of a display station, the type of parity must be the same as the type of parity specified for the display's device description.
Some devices do not support all types of parity; verify that your device supports the type of parity you intend to use.
The system uses the suggested setting for this device type.
*TYPE selects *EVEN (Even parity) for all display stations except for the D220 which selects *MARK. For a 5150 A1 device, *TYPE selects *NONE for an 8 bit word length and *EVEN for a 7 bit word length. If *CALC is specified for the Device type (TYPE) parameter, *TYPE selects *NONE.
Specifies port sharing. If *CALC is specified, the system automatically calculates the parity for displays attached to this port.
More information on ASCII port sharing is in the Local Device Configuration book, SC41-5121 book and the ASCII Work Station Reference, SA41-3130.
