ES/PCI - For Terminal and Printer Emulation in Any Windows Environment ES/PCI is a hardware/software package that provides powerful, flexible local 5250 terminal and printer emulation for any Windows® environment. By using the Peripheral Controller Interconnect (PCI) interface slot available on new desktop and server PCs, you can link PCs via twinax to an IBM System/36®, Advanced Series/36®, or AS/400®, to emulate a variety of 5250 terminal types and IBM midrange printers. The interface also supports the 5250 data stream by accepting, decoding and executing commands issued from both the personal computer and the control unit. Based on PCI bus technology, ES/PCI can be easily installed in the latest versions of PCs, using true plug-and-play technology. Additionally, unlike LAN adapters, ES/PCI does not require special addresses or reconfiguration if the PC is moved to a new location.
- Single solution for Windows operating systems. ES/PCI provides terminal and printer emulation for Windows 95/98/2000—all in a single solution. The ES/PCI installer program detects the Windows operating system and automatically installs the appropriate software.
- Flexible connectivity options. PCs can be connected locally by a standard twinax cable, twisted cable, or through an IBM 5X94 workstation controller.
- Client Axcess/400® support. ES/PCI is fully compatible with CA/400 features, including shared folders and ODBC (Open Database Connectivity). It also supports Personal Communications/400® and all versions of PC Support.
- Multiple session support. A single PC can run seven sessions concurrently. S/3X data entry, batch processing, print jobs, and PC resident software can be run simultaneously.
- Printer options. Choose from a variety of popular printers supported by the PC. Up to three printers are supported at any one time, each running independently while another host or PC application is active.
- Hotspots identify host menu items. Host menu items and function keys can be assigned colors. Employ this aesthetic and intuitive approach to locate them quickly and easily.
