The host system also has a set of error messages to report problems with
communication between the host and the display station. These four-digit
error messages consist of codes 0040 through 0054. See the IBM Technical
Reference Manual for your host type (System/34, /36, /38, or AS/400) for
further information on host error messages.
Use the [ERROR RESET] key to clear the error condition and proceed
with the host communications.

The 5250 Remote Emulator Card software is Windows compatible if used
under a Windows DOS partition. Included with the 5250 Remote Emulator
Card’s software are two *.PIFs (Program Information Files) for starting
emulation from Windows. You must enter the pathname of the *.PIF file
on the command line of the NEW PROGRAM OBJECT window when you
create an icon for the emulation software.
9.3.2 DOS S
HELL
Make sure all programs, including the 5250 Remote Emulator Card’s
emulation program, are loaded before you load the DOS Shell. If the
emulation program is loaded from DOS Shell, the next application
program may not load properly, since the PC’s memory is not fully free.

ODE
The ANSI.SYS screen driver must be installed when you use programs with
43- or 50-line mode, such as Quattro
®
Pro. Otherwise, the number of lines
might revert to another size when you hotkey to a host session and then
back to the DOS session.
The screen colors may change during the hotkeying for some programs
(such as Microsoft Works), but the data will remain unaffected and the
screen colors will be restored after the next startup.
