RE: Large screen monitor -- MIDRANGE-L

Dave,

At Dekko we use a bunch of Netstations.  Yes, you are potentially introducing 
more variables and points of failure by using netstations, than 5250.  Not 
really a significant amount.  For example they both have local configurations.  
The host configuration is done using the universal client - the browser.  The 
fact that you need to have *SECADM to do some trivial configuration is 
upsetting 
- (yes *SECADM and not just *IOSYSCFG).

I've not tried any 'oversize' monitors on a netstation.  If you have one you 
want 
to try you can lug it over here and we can see if we can get it working.

Why do you say it will work much better than a twinax attached dumb
terminal?
 
I currently only have twinax running to this area.  Also, I don't
particularly want a PC based reader - I've never used them and I want to
have the scanned information available to the AS/400 session.  Wouldn't I be
introducing more variables & points of failure by going the Netstation
route?

    Use a Netstation !  It will work much better, and have the Video driver
capability you will probably need to make this work, as well as a serial or
inline PC based reader aailable to do what you need...

I would like to be able to connect a large (31" or larger) screen monitor to
a regular dumb terminal.  Connection to the terminal is twinax.  I will also
be connecting a barcode reader to the terminal.  Anyone done this or know
how to?  What equipment, etc.?

Thanks, 
Dave
