Model             (TCT) 

DESCRIPTION
For most 3270-like entries, this field shows the terminal "Model" number and 
type. For other kinds of entries, Sun MTPScan displays a context-dependent value for
the type of terminal. Sun MTPScan only displays "Model" for active entries.


VALUES
For 3270-like entries, this datapoint shows as much of the exact "Model" as 
possible, eg. '3278' or '32782e'. This is the case for connections with "Type" 
equal to '3270' or 'EPI'. TR connections merely show a generic value of '3270'.
For UNIX-based terminal handlers, unikixl and unikixs, "Model" shows the value 
of the TERM environment variable, eg. xterms or vt100, for an xterm or a dumb 
terminal, respectively. TN3270 entries show a similar value, except the value 
represents the type of hardware the terminal handler runs on.  For example, the 
"Model" is 'xterm' for a TN3270 client.


INTERPRETATION
The meaning of the "Model" is based on the "Type" of TCT Screen entry:

3270    - detailed "Model" number, if available

EPI     - detailed "Model" number, if available

Local   - value of TERM environment variable

Remote  - value of TERM environment variable

TN3270  - depends on where the TN3270 client runs 

TR      - generic value of '3270'
          

CONCLUSIONS
The "Model" may help identify additional terminal characteristics of a 
particular connection. This is especially true for '3270' and 'EPI' "Type" 
terminal handlers. For the UNIX-based terminal handlers, the "Model" tells if 
the enduser is using an X Terminal display or a dumb terminal. However, note 
that a user may set the TERM environment variable to a dumb terminal type (eg. 
vt100) but still run the terminal handler in an xterm.
