AST-5250 ASYNC DIAL-UP FUNCTIONAL ISSUES
AST Data Comm Product Marketing has reviewed all aspects of the following
functional issues relating to the 5250 Async Dial-up product (part number
500307-001). They have made the determination that these issues will not be
resolved for this product.
These issues are as follows:
- The user is sharing one session between the master and slave systems.
This device is also used as a sub-console. When a change is made to
the screen of the slave, such as a change of menu, the screen takes
about 30 seconds to completely refresh on the slave. (PR#A46011)
- A job sent from the IBM System/36 to a printer attached to an Async
Dial-up slave may appear to operate very slowly. The printer will
print two lines, pause, then print two more lines. The Async Dial-up
product is however, operating as designed. (PR#A46015)
