  • PS2200 demand mode

    From Stephen Boyd@sboydlns@gmail.com to comp.sys.unisys on Sat Mar 28 14:12:00 2026

    Is it possible to open a second demand window to the real operating
    system (ROS) in PS2200? If so, how? I can open a new user window
    (CTL-F*) but that always seems to connect me to the simulated operating
    system (SOS).

    Press-and-hold Control key and press right arrow key.

    That works. I misread the documentation. Instead of pressing
    CTL-FunctionKey1 I was pressing CTL-F CTL-1. Not the same thing at all.

    So, CTL-Right opens a new window while CTL-FunctionKeyN takes you to a specific window.

    Than You
