Version 1.1, introduced in June 1986, added support for the IBM PC Network and IBM 3270 terminal emulation.
Interactive use of VS/9 was done through terminals connected to a terminal concentrator unit, which passed control signals to and from the terminals, in a manner similar to the way IBM would provide with its IBM 3270-style terminals.
