SysReq Key Support
When the SysReq option in the Telnet Options dialog box is selected, the key
mapped with the SysReq function enables you to toggle the display and keyboard
entries between the host operating system and the application. This enables you to
switch to the operating system and issue a LOGOFF command. When communicating
with the operating system the status line will display the
symbol.
Note: Not all TN3270E servers provide full support of the SysReq
key.
