My 5250 session has no page up/down capability

[serafino]

I've successfully installed x3270 on Solaris. In addition I've successfully established a 5250 connection to the AS400. But I've an issue. I can't page through multiple OS400 screens. The x3270 keypad has no paging option nor can I page using the PageUp and PageDown keys on my keyboard. What must I do?

You're using terminal emulation. You emulate the keys which are present on the original terminals. As far as I know 3270 and 5250 terminals have no PageUp/PageDown keys. Remember the "good old" SAA spec's from IBM? Try F7 to emuate PF7 on 3270 or cmd7 on 5250. The same for F8.

Truusvlugindewind:

What do you mean by 'cmd7'?

If cmd7 is just AS400 speak for F7 then it doesn't work. What must I do to get page up/down on my Sun until I do I ccan't use it for a green screen 5250 session.
