The Menu System 2-3
The keys that appear at the bottom of each menu allow you to navigate
through the menus. These are menu control keys, and are described in
Table 2-1.
Sessions Menu
Depending on the way you configure your connection, one of two sessions’
menus displays:
◆
If you connect to a server using an IP address, the emulator will open with
a session. Once you return to the main menu, the first choice on the main
menu will be Sessions. Use this method to connect with preexisting
connection definitions.
◆
If you connect to a server without using an IP address (simply typing
5250 in the Description field of the Connection Properties dialog box), a
session will not be opened, but the main menu will display. In this menu
the first choice will be Open Session. Use this menu to open your initial
session. Use this method to create new connection definitions.
