Backtab key. When the cursor is located in the attribute character 
position or the first location of an unprotected field or in any 
character position of a protected field, this key moves the cursor to 
the first location of the first preceding unprotected data field. When 
the cursor is located in a location of an unprotected field other than 
the first location, this key moves the cursor to the first character 
location of that field. In a display with no unprotected fields, the 
cursor is positioned to row 1, column 1. (Esc i performs Backtab key 
functions.)
Enter key. If this key is set as a function key, its behavior is 
unchanged. Otherwise it moves the cursor to the first unprotected 
character location of the next line. If the display has no unprotected 
fields, the cursor is positioned to row 1, column 1. If the display 
contains no fields, the cursor is positioned at the first character 
location on the next line. (See the next section, “Unformatted 
Mode.”)
Home key. This key moves the cursor to the first unprotected  
character position on the screen. If the display has no unprotected 
fields, the cursor is positioned to row 1, column 1. (Esc H performs 
Home key functions.)
Home Down key. This key moves the cursor to the first location of 
the last unprotected field on the screen. If the display has no 
unprotected fields, the cursor is positioned at row 24, 
column 1. (Esc F performs Home Down key functions.)
Unformatted Mode
In EM3270 mode, a screen with no fields is treated as a single 
unformatted field. Data may be keyed at any character position. The 
following escape sequences handle such a screen by transmitting any 
character position not containing a null:
Esc <  Read Whole Page
Esc =  Read with Address
Esc ]  Read with Address All
These data are not preceded by a DC1 row column sequence.
