System requests do not work
Here are the solutions for when system requests do not work.
When using Operations Console, SYSREQ corresponds to Shift+ESC and is defined as the default for PC5250 emulation.
Most keyboards have a Print Screen key, also labeled as SYSREQ and would be activated by using that key with the Ctrl key, however Windows® reserves this key for the Print Screen function.
You must remap the keyboard by using the operating system, not PC5250, in order to change it.
