Re: 3488 terminal setup

Yes. Hold down the spacebar while powering up. Or with the 3488 and 
3489, there should also be an "Offline Setup" option on the Online Setup 
menu.

Under "Customize Workstation," you can set the number of display 
sessions (0 to 4), and whether or not there is a printer session, and 
set addresses for the sessions. F8 should get you to the printer type 
selection screen.

With multiple display sessions, you ought to set background colors, so 
that you can tell them apart at a glance. In "Online Setup" 
(shift-Attn), press F8 until you get to a screen listing background 
colors for various sessions, and then tweak them as desired. On our 
3489, I use black for 1, very dark green (11G) for 2, very dark blue 
(20B) for 3, dark brown (21R + 7G) for 4, and dark gray (10R + 8G + 13B) 
for inactive: dark enough that they don't interfere with text 
legibility, but light enough that you can see them and tell them apart.

I have the manual, if you have any other questions.
