Table 14-7 lists the mapping made for each lower-row function key on an IBM 3270 or
compatible terminal keyboard for each setting of CONTROL PFK3270, CONTROL
PFKNATIVE, and CONTROL PFKGEN. (The settings of CONTROL PFKMAP and
CONTROL NOPFKMAP determine whether upper-row function keys are mapped to
lower-row function keys.)

Handling Generic Function Keys
By default (CONTROL NOPFK), Panel Services intercepts certain generic function
keys (SPLIT, SWAP, END, and RETURN) in a manner that is identical to the rest of
NonStop NET/MASTER MS. The keys affected are shown in Table 14-8.
