SCREEN BUFFERING WITH 3151 ON 7318

ITEM: RTA000052037



QUESTION:                                                                       
This is a question on using the IBM 3151 terminal with the 7318                 
terminal servers. Is there any way to enable screening buffering                
with this combination of hardware. This is in reference to                      
moving between screens/sessions on the 3151 and have the screen                 
output of the "background" screens/sessions buffered and displayed              
again as the user toggle back. Thanksą

A:  Unfortunately, there is not a way to enable screen buffering on             
    the IBM 3151 ASCII Display with the 7318 terminal server.                   
    Multiple sessions can only refresh or update the screen upon                
    switching back to a session, if the terminal supports multiple              
    display pages or screen buffering.  For terminals that do not               
    support multiple display pages, the default action on a session            
    switch is to clear the screen.  The IBM 3151 ASCII terminals do             
    not support multiple display screen or screen buffering.                    
                                                                                
Thank you.
