/IAM is used to sign on to IMS from a terminal that is on a non-VTAM attached switched communication line. This command (without the DONE keyword) must be entered before any input transaction codes or terminal commands are accepted.
The terminal operator has five chances to sign on. If signon is not accomplished after five tries, IMS sends the operator a message indicating that the line is being disconnected. IMS disconnects the line and restores the line to answering status.
/IAM is not supported for Network Terminal Option devices.
If the first four characters of the ltermname parameter are INQU, the connection is completed with the inquiry logical terminal associated with the line/pterm that received the call.
