Chapter 3. Setup Menus, Controls,
and Indicators
This chapter describes the display controls, keyboard controls, and display indicators on
the 1483 and its attached keyboard.
Display Controls
Refer to the installation booklet that comes with your Display element for an illustration
of the locations of the Brightness, Contrast, and other controls. Any controls not on the
display station are regulated from the setup menus and are described in the sections on
Online and Offline Setup mode.
Keyboard Operation Modes
You can select either of two keyboard operation modes, Emulation mode or Native mode.
The default setting is to emulate an IBM 3278 88-key keyboard. You can change the
keyboard operation mode by changing the keyboard type on the Offline Keyboard menu
(Figure 3-6 on Page 3-12).
With Native mode selections, Keyboard Definition mode is supported.
Emulation Mode
Emulation mode can be used with a 122-key or a 104-key keyboard. Emulation mode
causes the display station to provide to the controller converted keyboard scan codes that
allow the attached keyboard to emulate a standard IBM 3278 88-key keyboard or an
IBM 3278 88-key keyboard with a PF pad. In Emulation mode, some keys on the 122-
key keyboard are not functional. The controller to which the display station is attached
must be configured to support Emulation mode.
