Macintosh: Connecting to an IBM 3090 with a ITT Courier 9440



At work, they are replacing an ITT Courier 9212 terminal (connected with coax
cable) with the Macintosh using a channel-attached ITT Courier 9440 "Local
Controller" (some kind of cluster controller).

Do you have any idea what this ITT Courier 9440 is? Is it a direct replacement
for a 3274 cluster controller? Does the ITT Courier 9212 emulate a 3270
terminal? Is this going to work with the Macintosh?

The ITT Courier 9440 is a 3274-A/41-A channel-attached controller. The ITT
Courier 9212 does emulate a 3270 terminal. Therefore, you can substitute the
Courier 9212 with a Macintosh running MacTerminal and an IrmaLine from DCA.
