The 3483 InfoWindow* II Modular Display Station is a mainframe system (ES/9000*, S/370*, etc.) display terminal that attaches to a variety of IBM host computers. The 3483 InfoWindow II Modular Display Station provides a wide range of features and price points to meet various customer needs. This series is offered in a range of models and features a modular design of a logic, a keyboard, models with no monitors, models with various IBM PS/2* and PS/ValuePoint* monitors and warranties from one year to three years.
Highlights
Modular design: separate modular logic unit (floor/wall/desk mount) with
user selectable IBM monitor
Support of some new IBM monitors for high screen resolution, 27 x 132 (mode
5) and 50 x 80 (twin screen) formats, and advanced power management
Support of IBM PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard
3481/3482 compatible with enhancements: Dynamic color assignment for foreground
and background colors, 195,000 Color palette, Record/Play enhancements,
Security controls
Description
The monitors supported by
the 3483 include a 14-inch conventional color CRT, a 15-inch FST color
CRT, and the 17-inch Trinitron** (TR) color CRT, the latest technology
products. With an attachment of the new multi-frequency monitors, the 3483
provides improved ergonomics for increased user comfort.
The 3483 also supports the IBM PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard which has both host (mainframe) and PC nomenclature on the keytops. This modular design concept allows the customer to maintain monitor and PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard investment when migrating to a PC environment in the future.
The 3483 is 3481/3482 compatible
with enhancements. The enhancements include:
Dynamic color assignment of foreground and background color from a 195,000
color palette
Record/Play enhancements
Security control
Modular Design
The 3483 offers a modular
design: modular logic unit, keyboard, and supports attachment of many IBM
monitors.
Investment Protection
- Upgradability Improvements
The modular design of the
3483 meets today's customers' various business needs and investment protection.
It provides a choice of monitor that best fits into each customer's environment
in terms of monitor size, color, ergonomics, price range, power management.
It also supports the new 122-key IBM PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard which has
both host (mainframe) and PC nomenclature. With the combination of the
monitor choice and PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard, the customer can maintain
an investment in both the monitor and the PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard if
migrating to a PS/2 in the future. The 122-key IBM PS/2 Host Connect Keyboard
will have a proper PC nomenclature for a PC environment.
Business Solutions - Advanced
Power Management
With the attachment of the
applicable new IBM monitors, the 3483 supports an advanced power management
feature. This feature is a multistage power management, and turns off components
in the monitor not in use during periods of inactivity. It reduces the
power consumption up to 90% and reduces component stress which results
in a longer product life.
Stages of power management
are:
Auto Dim - blanks the display screen after a period of inactivity thereby
preserving the screen phosphor.
Standby - turns off deflection components which reduces power consumption
up to 65%. Recovery takes approximately 1-2 seconds.
Inactive Standby - Turns off CRT cathode and filament which prolongs CRT
life. This reduces power consumption up to 90%. Recovery takes approximately
3-5 seconds.
End-User Productivity
- Improved Worker Productivity
The twin screen mode is
available with some new IBM Monitors. This mode displays two full 24 rows
by 80-columns formats on the screen by top-bottom. One 24 x 80 format can
be used online, and the other as reference. Customers can copy all or a
part of the screen between online session and the reference area.
Dynamic Color Assignment
The 3483 allows a customer
to select foreground and background colors out of 195,000 color palette.
End-User Productivity
- Interoperability Improvements
Customers can dynamically
select any preferable 7 foreground colors and 1 background color from 195,000
color palette. This can be selected by a local user setup panel.
Record/Play Enhancement
The 3483 record/play enhancements
include:
Support of the local function keys (Calculator or Copy)
Insert delay in the playback sequence to communicate to the host
End-User Productivity - Improved
Worker Productivity
The 3483 will enhance the
record/play function. The local function keys such as Calculator or Copy
etc., can be included in the record/play sequence. Also, a certain interval
of delay can be inserted into the record/play sequence so that customers
can perform play back with host interactions by suspending the play back
while the host is busy. The 3483 acknowledges the host busy status, suspends
the play back, and resumes when the host busy status is cleared.
The 3483 allows customers to have up to 6000 key strokes in total of record keys identical to the 3481/3482.
Security Controls
The 3483 provides auto key-lock
mechanism after being unattended for a certain time, and the key-lock should
be released when a correct password is entered. The 3483 also has VPD (Vital
Product Data) lock-out feature to inhibit customers to change VPD record.

Requirements
Attachment of the 3483 is
made via 3270 wiring. Coaxial cable (as typically used to attach the 3471,
3472, 3191, 3192,
3178, 3179-1, 3180-1, 3278
or 3279 Displays) and twisted pair cable with approved balun may be used.
See cable order
section.
The 3483 can be attached
to the IBM 3174 Establishment Controller, similar to the 3481/3482. The

expands 3483 capabilities
by providing functions such as, split screen, copy from session to session,
3174 calculator, 5250 emulation field exit, extended vital product data,
type-ahead, enhanced null/blank processing, and expansion of national language
support. In addition, the 3174 offers a broad range of connectivity options
such as multiple logical terminal (MLT) support, network management, multihost
support, local format storage (LF), central site control facility (CSCF),
token-ring attachment, and TCP/IP Telnet support. Refer to the "3174 Establishment
Controller User Guide" (GA27-3966) and "Functional Description" (GA23-0218)
for additional information.
