    Clear as day on left edge. IDEAssociates 5251.

    The only mystery is who needs a 5250 compatible card?

    Louis,

    Reading is hard. Using Google is hard. Using a keyboard is hard.

    Correct on the POS ID - this appears to be the latest 16/17 revision that I have seen (and have). By "layer", you are asking how many sessions (display and printer)? I believe those are at least a four-session adapter.
