Starting the PC Organizer

To start the PC Organizer:
  1. Start a 5250 display session.
  2. Sign on to the iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5.
  3. Enter the following command on the iSeries, eServer i5, or System i5 command line:
      STRPCO PCTA(*NO)
    Note:
    Personal Communications does not support the PC Text Assist (PCTA) function, so you should specify this parameter with *NO. Even if you specify *YES, you cannot use the PC Text Assist function provided by the PC Support/400 Workstation Feature.
You can now use the PC Organizer functions in a 5250 display session by using one of the following methods:
  • Display and then select choices from the menu.
    To display the PC Support/400 or iSeries Access for Windows Organizer menu, enter:
      GO PCOMNU
  • Enter PC Organizer commands.
    To start the PC Organizer functions, enter:
      STRPCCMD

PCO.EXE Message

When you run a workstation command or program, you might receive a message that the PCO.EXE program is not active. You can ignore this message, because it is not necessary for PC400 to activate PCO.EXE.
