Using the pSeries computer as a 3270 terminal

Blueworx Voice Response includes 3270 terminal emulation to allow interaction with a 3270 host application in a Blueworx Voice Response window. In other words, you can use the pSeries computer® as a 3270 terminal.

The pSeries computer keyboard is different from a 3270 terminal keyboard. To use the pSeries computer as a 3270 terminal, Blueworx Voice Response provides key equivalents on the Screen Capture (3270 Emulation) window and on the pSeries computer keyboard, as shown in Table 1.
