This terminal is based on the Wyse 350 terminal, with special firmware by Contemporary Cybernetics to add better compatibility with the Metropolis database manager. The CY-350 is a 7-bit color terminal that uses field operation for both attributes and color.
The ZTERM 2000 emulation of this terminal is compatible with the CY-350 in most regards. A few infrequently used CY-350 functions are missing from the ZTERM 2000 emulation, such as:
• | Keyboard palette switching |
The ZTERM 2000 emulation enhances the Contemporary version by adding:
• | Extended graphics character set |
• | ZTERM 2000 specific commands |
