This is the main reason why we panned them. >-Ron The Bridge CS/1-SNA will not allow you to define new terminals. The sysgen menu does allow you to select, for each virtual circuit, one of 17 pre-defined terminals or just display a terminal menu and let the user select. Keyboard mapping is two things. The sysgen menu has changed from asking you to select a character set of a particular country or language to providing EBCDIC/ASCII and ASCII/EBCDIC translation tables you can tailor to your needs. In addition to this, my company modified the telnet command to make use of an external (to the CS/1-SNA) keymap file. This was accomplished with assistance from Bridge Communications. Our CS/1-SNA is sysgen'ed to always appear as a VT100 terminal. Since my company makes its own keyboards, we customize the keymap file to map our keyboards to the VT100. This is working great.
