how to get out from the message "press PA1 to return to shell

[demecarv]

I was in front of OMVS screen and suddenly I pressed pf3. I moved me to the screen showed in the attached file. After this, I can type either "omvs" which opens a new omvs screen or "ish" which opens ishel window. The problem is that after I hit pf3 to close ishel or I type exit in the new omvs, I return again for the screen attached and I can't move away from it. It seems to me that I should hit PA1 but I can't find such key (I tried every pfN found in my keyboard from pf1 to pf12). The first problem is that I "lost" all thing I was doing my original screen before I accidentally hit pf6. And the worst is that I can't get away from the screen attached. I know it seems a very simple question but I am really stuck on it and, when it happens, I lost some precious time.

read the manual for Your 3270 emulator to find out the mapping of the PA1 key

A Program Attention (PA) key is NOT the same as a Program Function (PF) key. Hitting PF1 through PF12 (or PF24) will do nothing for you since none of them are a PA key. These days pretty much every 3270 emulator has a way to send a PA key -- often (but by no means universally) the Insert or PageUp key on the keyboard.

Robert, thanks. I didn`t know PA means Program Attention. I found such option for my case.
