Sorry, there is no right answer to your question.

There are several methadologies depending on what you already have in
place.

Plain ASCII.

1. Inside the 400 add an ascii work station controoer.

2. Outboard use a Perle x94 controller with ASCII port adapter. Connects
to one of the ports
on your existing 2623.

With a Lan connected to the 400

Dial into lan.

1.  Use SNA Gateway

2. If TCP/IP Telnet into 400
