Hi Brian, please take a peek at Steve’s earlier note as I think that touches on what you are thinking of?

Nice to know, Mike. Shame RDi doesn't pick up the same configuration set
up when invoking ACS outside of RDi, (or have a Preference/Setting for
which configuration to use and where it is). But then, it's not much
effort to invoke ACS/5250 from outside RDi - especially if there's a
strategic shortcut handy on the desktop.

Cheers!
Brian.

Just for clarification, which version of RDi are you using?

RDi 9.6 has 2 x IBM-supplied 5250 emulators available:
- Host Connection Emulator
- ACS Emulator

RDi 9.8 has just the ACS emulator - I believe HCE has been discontinued.

(Don't forget the iSphere plug-in has it's own excellent 5250 emulator
as well.)

Personally, I tend to use the ACS emulator via the standalone ACS
install and not rely on the in-built RDi version. (The configurations
are better managed, especially across new product versions.)

FWIW,
Brian.

Is there a way to save 5250 settings when running from RDi?

I launch 5250 from the Object Table view and it loads with a generic
session. I set all my configuration and save it. When I open 5250 again
it's back to the generic.


TIA
