To activate emulation between the PC and the host system, first vary on
the line, controller, and devices on the host. Then follow the instructions

configuration file’s name after “EM5251R”.
A new screen/session appears; what type (a 3X emulation screen and

you chose during configuration. The 5250 Remote Emulator Card begins
