[comp.sys.zenith] Information needed on Z-19 Video Terminal

tidedu@mars.lerc.nasa.gov (William T. Dedula) (01/30/91)

Hello All;
Does anyone still have a Zenith Z-19 terminal or the manual 
for one or does anyone know anything about them ???

I have this terminal but I lost the manual and I'm trying to 
to use it to dial into a mainframe computer system with a 
Microcom (Non Hayes Compatible, I'm told) modem. The computer
is something like an IBM 370 (I'm not sure exactly what the 
model number is) but it runs the VM/SP operating system. 

At any rate ... for some reason, the Z-19 won't generate the 
proper codes for things to work correctly and we suspect that 
number of data bits, or parity being sent by the terminal may 
be the problem. Can anyone offer any suggestions which may 
help us ??? Also ... the function keys don't seem to be generating
the right codes. 

We could also a list of the DIP switch settings if anyone has 
a manual available. 

Thank you very much for you assistance.

Tim
