Re: Reading scales interactively into a CA 5250 session

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Folks are using our Alliance SerialConnect product to connect scales to
the AS/400 over a TCP/IP ethernet network and driving the read of the
scale from their 5250 session. This is a little different than
connecting the scales to the PC, so I'm not sure if that's what you are
really looking for. More information here: http://www.patownsend.com.
