First of all you need to determine what kind of console your system is configured for. Normally you would use SST to determine this. I can see that being an issue in your case. Instead you might have to try the steps listed here:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_74/rzajr/rzajrfunctions6521.htm
If you do not have an HMC you should select Lan Console. Not Operations Console. IDK why Twinax is still listed as no supported OS will run on any hardware which will support twinax. I opened up a RFE and IBM is starting to weed out the obsolete hardware on some stuff.
