Title: Personal Communications for the Mobile Users Dos, Windows 3.1, and Os/2
Description: This redbook describes how to customize and use Personal Communications for
3270 or 5250 host-system communications, and provides information about all
the relevant connection options. It includes guidance on remote access to
host systems via asynchronous and synchronous communications, and describes
the use of Personal Communications in combination with LAN Distance and in a
Wireless LAN environment. Definitions are included for related products,
such as CM/2, 3174 Asynchronous Emulation Adapter, and the 8235 Dial-In
Access to LANs (DIALs) Server.

This redbook is intended for mobile users of Personal Communications for DOS,
Windows 3.1 or OS/2, and for administration and service personnel who have to
set up Personal Communications family for use in a mobile environment.

This book is part of a series of three ITSO redbooks about Personal
Communications family. It does not attempt to describe every feature of
PCOMM, nor does it describe PCOMM's LAN or WAN capability (unless this is
pertinent to a mobile connection). These subjects are covered in the
following redbooks:

Personal Communications Version 4.1 Implementation Guide,
SG24-4681, which fully describes the Personal Communications family
functions, requirements, compatibility and limitations. It includes
guidance on installation, customization and describes the use of man y
features, such as data and file transfer, printing or the trace faci lity.

Personal Communications for the LAN/WAN User - DOS, Wind ows
and OS/2, SG24-4688, which includes guidance on local LAN and WAN ac cess
to host-systems. It describes customization of Coax, Twinax, and LA N
connections, the non-switched SDLC and X.25 WAN connections and the PCOMM
Gateway capability. This book will be available in 4Q96.

All these books should be used as a supplement to the product documentation,
and assume a working knowledge of 3270 or 5250 workstation-to-host
communications and of the OS/2, DOS or Windows environments.

This book does not include information about Personal Communications for
Windows 95. That is dealt with in a separate book, Personal Communications
Version 4.1 for Windows 95 Implementation Guide, SG24-4689.
