DISCUSSION MacDFT supports up to five 3270 terminal sessions per Macintosh using either the Coax/Twinax Card or TokenTalk NB Card. There is no such distinction between host sessions and terminal sessions. The IBM PC 3270, which first used DFT, was designed to support four terminal sessions and one 3287 printer session. Since MacDFT does not support 3287 printing, all five sessions are used for terminal sessions. You do, however, need a 3X74 controller customized to have up to five LUs assigned to the physical coax in use. The LU numbers assigned have to be included in the NCP gen and have to be active or vary'd on by the host operator. The same sort of issues are involved with the Token Ring implementation. Non-English character set support is part of the product design and is located under the Config Menu labelled Country. Currently, it lists English and Italian. If you need to support foreign language sets, a ResEdit of the ASCII-to-Device Buffer Code table is required within the application.
