TN5250

A 5250 terminal emulator for authorized access to IBM AS/400 and iSeries systems.

Our take

Try the Lite version with your actual host first

Screen sizes, code pages and barcode input address specific legacy enterprise workflows.

Keep in mind: Host configuration, TLS and scanner compatibility must be tested. AS/400 printing is directed to a separate TN3812 product.

What you can do

  • Choose 24x80/27x132 screens
  • Use supported TLS
  • Configure code pages/colors
  • Input supported camera or hardware barcodes

Good for

  • Administrators with approved host access.

Consider alternatives for

  • People expecting an IBM server or printing product included.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.6.
  • Host configuration, TLS and scanner compatibility must be tested. AS/400 printing is directed to a separate TN3812 product.
