For SAS/CONNECT users on OS/2, the following
topics will
answer your questions about communications packages, the alarm that sounds
when signing on, hardware and software requirements, and local area networks.
These topics are covered in the following sections.
Can you turn off the alarm that sounds when you are
establishing a link with a 3270 connection?
Yes. Refer to the documentation for your communications
package.
For 3270 connections, does SAS/CONNECT work with
local
area networks?
If the 3270 network software is functional with your
remote host, SAS/CONNECT works by means of the network. SAS/CONNECT communicates
by using the EHLLAPI interface, which handles 3270 communications with the
network.
For 3270 connections, what configuration is
required
for SAS/CONNECT to support a Token Ring network?
SAS/CONNECT does not require any special configuration.
The Token Ring network configuration requires a 3174 control unit or a 37x5 control unit directly on the Token Ring network to be able to emulate
a 3270-type terminal that uses OS/2 on a Token Ring network.
