This page recreates an IBM AS/400 running OS/400 V3R6 on a 3477 terminal: the IPL with system reference codes, the 5250 sign-on screen, the main menu, the command line and the function keys. Every screen is drawn on the classic 24 × 80 character grid, with input fields, the message line and the status row at the bottom (MW lights up when you have messages, X SYSTEM while the system works).
| GO ORDERS | Bernaers Systems order entry: browse vintage hardware, add items with option 1, check out with F10. The invoice lands in your spooled files and can be printed on green-bar paper. |
| WRKACTJOB | Work with active jobs per subsystem, live CPU %, end or hold jobs. |
| WRKSYSSTS | System status: CPU, auxiliary storage and memory pools. |
| DSPMSG / SNDMSG | Read your message queue, answer the QSYSOPR inquiry message (reply G), send a message. |
| WRKSPLF | Spooled files: display (5), print to your PC (P), hold, release, delete. |
| STRSQL | Interactive SQL on real tables: SELECT NAME, PRICE FROM HWCATALOG WHERE YEAR < 1982 ORDER BY PRICE DESC. |
| STRPDM | PDM and SEU: browse (5) and edit (2) RPG and CL source, compile (14) in batch. |
| DSPLIBL, DSPLIB, DSPJOB, DSPSYSVAL, CHGPWD, CALL QCMD, SIGNOFF, PWRDWNSYS | The everyday commands, including a full power-down and IPL. |
Enter submits the screen. F1 is help, F3 exits, F12 cancels, F4 prompts a command, F9 retrieves the last command. Shift+F1…F12 gives F13…F24. Page Down and Page Up are Roll Up and Roll Down. Esc is Attn (Operational Assistant menu) and Shift+Esc is System Request. On a phone, use the key strip under the screen.
