MacDFT supports up to five 3270 terminal sessions per Macintosh using
either the Coax/Twinax Card or TokenTalk NB Card. There is no such
distinction between host sessions and terminal sessions. The IBM PC 3270,
which first used DFT, was designed to support four terminal sessions and
one 3287 printer session. Since MacDFT does not support 3287 printing, all
five sessions are used for terminal sessions. You do, however, need a 3X74
controller customized to have up to five LUs assigned to the physical coax
in use. The LU numbers assigned have to be included in the NCP gen and
have to be active or vary'd on by the host operator. The same sort of
issues are involved with the Token Ring implementation.
Non-English character set support is part of the product design and is located
under the Config Menu labelled Country. Currently, it lists English and
Italian. If you need to support foreign language sets, a ResEdit of the
ASCII-to-Device Buffer Code table is required within the application.
