This menu lists all the terminals in the test stream. For each terminal, CA Verify for VTAM identifies its name, type, screen size, alternate size, and the virtual terminal (if any) assigned to that terminal.

Follow these steps:

1. Type S to the left of each terminal whose screens you want to browse. Then use the End (PF3) command to display the Record Selection menu.
2. Type I to the left of any terminal for which you want terminal status information. Then press Enter to display the Initial Terminal Status menu. When you are finished viewing the terminal status information, use the End (PF3) command to redisplay the Terminal Selection menu.
3. Use these commands as follows:

   Assign

   CA Verify for VTAM inserts S to the left of each terminal.

   Reset

   CA Verify for VTAM restores the initial screen setting with an underscore to the left of each terminal.

   Cancel

   CA Verify for VTAM cancels the browse and redisplays either the Test Stream Browse menu or the Test Stream Selection menu.

4. Use the Up (PF7) and Down (PF8) commands to scroll through the terminal list.
