3180 screen formatting

Like the 3290, the 3180 terminal is supported by IMS as an SLU 2 device. Partitioning and scrolling support for the 3180 is similar to what is provided for the 3290.

Exceptions: For the 3180:

• Only one partition with specific size limits can be defined. (For the 3290, multiple partitions of various sizes can be defined.)
• Logical unit display screen size and viewport location cannot be specified in picture elements (pels). (The 3290 supports pels.)
• You cannot specify an active partition. (For the 3290, active partitions can be specified.)

These restrictions apply only if you want the 3180 screen size when it is connected to IMS to differ from the 3180 screen size when it is connected to other subsystems. If no change is required, the 3180 customer set up installation instructions can be used and no special IMS code is necessary.
