IBM INFOWINDOW 3477 Contents Announcement Letter Number 189-131 dated September 5, 1989 US - Last Revised on September 5, 1989 Brief Description of Announcement, Charges, and Availability InfoWindow (R) 3477 establishes a new level of price/performance in mid-range displays. InfoWindow 3477 is compatible with the IBM 3197 Display Station and offers high quality, superior ergonomics and functions that include personal computer (PC) printer support with host-directed printing, local print with trim, Dual Address Terminal capability, Extended Character Buffer, Record/Play/Pause, menu directed Setup Mode, and Bar Code/Magnetic Badge Slot Reader capability. InfoWindow 3477 offers a choice of a 14-inch Color monitor or one of the three flat, low glare, smudge-resistant monochrome monitors, a 14-inch Green, a 14-inch Amber-Gold, or a 15-inch Green. InfoWindow 3477 has three screen capabilities, 1920, 3564 or 1920/1440 Split Screen format. Choice of keyboards and a choice of warranty offerings is also provided. The InfoWindow 3477 attaches directly to the System/36, System/38 and Application System/400 (TM) (AS/400 (TM)) processors, or indirectly, via the 5259 Migration Data link or 5299 Terminal Multiconnector and Twinax to Telephone Twisted Pair adapters. The IBM 3477 attaches remotely to these processors via the appropriate IBM 5294 or 5394 Remote Control Unit. NOTE: The current IBM InfoWindow 4055 Display has been renamed the IBM InfoWindow Touch Screen Display to avoid confusion with the new IBM 3477 described in this announcement.

Application programs written for the IBM 3197 will operate on the IBM 3477. The IBM 3477 attaches directly to IBM System/36, System/38 and AS/400 processors, or indirectly via the IBM 5259 Migration Data Link. It also attaches remotely to these systems via an IBM 5294 or 5394. Attachment is by the same type of cable as is used to attach an IBM 3196, 3179-2, 3180-2, 3197 and other IBM 5250 Information Display System devices. Cable-through is standard with the auto-termination unit provided. The 3477 can be used for entering, editing, and displaying alphanumeric data. The 3477 models provide three screen formats that may be selected by the user: o Up to 1,920 characters -- 24 lines of 80 characters each o Up to 3,564 characters -- 27 lines of 132 characters each o In dual address mode, up to 3,360 characters in split screen mode as follows: 24 lines of 80 characters each and 18 lines of 80 characters each. In addition, each of the above CRT formats provides a status line. InfoWindow 3477 consists of the following workstation elements: -----MODELS----- FGX FAX FCX FDX MONITORS 14" 14" 14" 15" GREEN AMBER COLOR GREEN *122-Key Typewriter SC9122 SC9122 SC9122 SC9122 *IBM Enhanced SC9131 SC9131 SC9131 SC9131 Logic Yes Yes Yes Yes Tilt-Swivel Stand Yes Yes Yes Yes Auto-termination Yes Yes Yes Yes Unit Power Cord 9-ft.

The host addressable printer function allows emulation of IBM workstation printers in alphanumeric characters only (5256, 4214 Model 2 or 5219) as follows: IBM WORKSTATION PRINTERS EMULATED Workstation Printer 4214-2 5219 5256 4201 Models 1, 2 and 3 yes no yes 4202 Models 1, 2 and 3 yes no yes 4207 Model 2 yes yes yes 4208 Model 2 yes yes yes 5201 Models 1 and 2 no no yes 5202 yes yes yes 5204 yes yes yes The attached printer may also be used for local screen copy. The printer attachment cable should be ordered with the printer or as an accessory (see the accessory section of this announcement) using part number 1525612. The printer cable is the same cable that would be used to attach the printer to the Personal System/2 (R). (R) Registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation. The dual address capability is controlled in the logic. The prime workstation address is assigned to the display, and the second is assigned to either the printer (D-P mode) or display (D-D mode). In D-D mode, two screen sessions are available via the "jump key." Both screens may be viewed concurrently in split screen mode (24X80, 18X80). TYPEWRITER STYLE KEYBOARDS Choices available are: o Home Row indicator keys o Low-profile keyboards providing two angles of inclination (5 or 12 degrees) with a telephone type coiled cable. SCREEN CHARACTERISTICS InfoWindow monitors provide a bright presentation of viewable area and picture elements for the following selectable screen formats: 14-INCH MONOCHROME MONITORS (GREEN AND AMBER-GOLD) CHARACTER FORMATS VIEWABLE PICTURE COLUMNS ROWS AREA(MM) ELEMENTS 80 24 235 x 169 960 x 529 132 27 233 x 162 1188 x 508 80 42* 235 x 170 960 x 532 (dual address, split screen) 15-INCH MONOCHROME MONITORS (GREEN) CHARACTER FORMATS VIEWABLE PICTURE COLUMNS ROWS AREA(MM) ELEMENTS 80 24 260 x 193 1200 x 529 132 27 257 x 185 1188 x 508 80 42* 260 x 194 1200 x 532 (dual address, split screen) 14-INCH COLOR MONITOR CHARACTER FORMATS VIEWABLE PICTURE COLUMNS ROWS AREA(MM) ELEMENTS 80 24 240 x 179 960 x 529 132 27 238 x 172 1188 x 508 80 42* 240 x 180 960 x 532 (dual address, split screen) * Screen format is 80X24 and 80X18. Etched, enhanced contrast CRT screen designed to reduce light reflections and fingerprint smudges to produce high quality, high-resolution output. NEW FUNCTIONS o The 3477 provides Vital Product Data to the AS/400 system. This information (machine type, model and display address) is collected by the AS/400 system and is available to users and application programs via the Display Local Hardware command (DSPLCLHDW). o Screen Print with Trim options. o 5219 Printer emulation via host addressable print including bold, symbol support, superscript, subscript and font selection. o 132-column capability on the Model FCx (AS/400 Version 1 Release 2 or higher). o Setup mode via menu selection. - Online Setup menu selections allow the operator to control alarm and clicker volume, modify cursor, turn auto-dim on/off, and others. - Off-line menu Setup functions allow the operator to select the display address and/or the printer address and the printer type being emulated. o Record/Play/Pause function allows the operator to store up to 1,500 keystrokes for later playback, with security options. o Audible alarm, auto-dim, and security keylock are standard. Security key is removable in both LOCK and UNLOCK positions. o Extended Character Buffer (ECB) with AS/400 OFFICE Version 1 Release 2.0 or higher, is used to contain the word processing controls (underscore, bold, subscript, superscript, word underscore and spelling mark), that would otherwise occupy a position on the screen. Existing documents may be edited on the 3477 without modification. The controls will automatically be removed from the screen while editing the 3477. If this document is saved and edited on any other 5250 Information Display System terminal (such as a 3179-2, 3180-2, 3196, 3197), the controls will again take a screen position. o Typeahead provides for continuous typing of up to 32 characters when attached as follows: - Locally attached to the AS/400 using OS/400 (TM) Version 1 Release 1.2 with PTFs 00364 and 00817. - Locally attached to the IBM AS/400 using OS/400 Version 1 Release 2 or higher. - Remotely attached to the IBM 5394 with microcode Release 2 via the AS/400. o Indicators are available in the Operator Information Area (IOA) for Typeahead and Layer 100. o Automatic Configuration of the 3477 can be accomplished when the 3477 is locally attached to the AS/400. An AS/400 (with OS/400 with Version 1 Release 2 or higher) will automatically configure the IBM 3477 as a 3477. An AS/400 (with OS/400 below Version 1 Release 2) will automatically configure the IBM 3477 as a 3197. o A cartridge connector is provided in the logic element for possible future use. o The IBM 7695 Model 250-bar Bar Code/Magnetic Badge Slot Reader is a high quality, compact decoder unit with a built-in bar code wand (available by RPQ). A connector is provided for an optical bar code or magnetic badge slot reader. The 7695 connects to the 3477 via the keyboard port of the 3477. The 3477 keyboard is then connected to the decoder unit. Input from the decoder unit or the keyboard is perceived as keyboard input by the InfoWindow 3477. o Tilt/Swivel stand, provided as standard, provides 20 degrees of tilt (plus 15 degrees to minus 5 degrees) and 180 degrees of swivel (plus or minus 90 degrees from the center position) to enable the display to be individually positioned.
