5.17 Configuring the Telnet TN5250 Drivers (continued)
When first opened, the drivers display an NVT screen with a message requesting entry of the host name or
address. The NVT screen consists of one enterable line (at the bottom), and a scrolling message area above the
enterable area. 5250 screen attributes are emulated on the NVT screen by the driver. The OIA indicates if the
driver is disconnected (“disc” at the beginning of the OIA), in NVT mode (“NVT”) or in a TN5250 session (the
terminal type is displayed).
See Section 5.4, TCP/IP Host Names and Addresses, for a description of the addresses that can be entered to
connect to a host.
The ApkTest key causes the driver to disconnect from the host and return to disconnected NVT mode.
In NVT mode, the ApkPF12 key functions as a “retrieve” key, and will redisplay recently entered items.
