In SDSF I do &10 to simulate "Enter" every 10-seconds.
My problem is I cannot remember the command to get out of this command and it locks up my terminal. Anybody know the command to exit this command?

I’ve tried ATTN, ESC, CLEAR, shift/ATTN, alt/ATTN, shift/ESC, alt/ESC, shift/CLEAR, and alt/CLEAR. Nothing happens - &10 keep running.

Thanks for any help/insights.

It pretty much depends on your terminal emulator. If I remember correctly, in a real 3270 it was the PA1 key. My terminal emulator maps the ESC key as ATTN, which works, but I'm not sure exactly what that does. I don't recall that a real 3270 had an ATTN key. I hope I gave you enough to try things.

and my RESET function is mapped to the Left Ctrl key and Attn is mapped to the Pause/Break key by default.

Thank you Steve and Terry.

It seems if I press ATTN twice, it works. Yea, my mapping for ATTN is ctrl/pause. Geez.

Thanks again!

I suspect you are accessing the system through a session manager. The behavior you just described is typical of a session manager. I thought about asking if you are using a session manager while I was writing my first post for this topic, but then I realized you may not know what a session manager is, so I decided it wasn't worth the effort.

Yep, the session manager is IBM Host On-Demand.

Hey, thanks for your assistance.
