An unlimited number of PF keys can be defined with commands or strings

PRODUCT APPLICATION

AUTOCON^® allows the user to operate and manage several consoles at a single terminal. Several users can access one and the same console at the same time, eliminating the problem of a user blocking console access for other users.
