Homologation
Homologation is the process to obtain country government approval to ship a device and
connect it to the country telecommunication network. It is similar to the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) approval in the United States.
There are features on the AS/400 system that require homologation by country government
organizations, usually the Post Telephone and Telegram departments (PTTs). The following
features are a sample of those that must meet specific homologation regulations in each
country before they can be ordered and delivered.
Euro Currency
IBM considers an IBM product to be EuroReady if the product, when used in accordance with
its associated documentation, is capable of correctly processing monetary data in the euro
denomination and of respecting the euro currency formatting conventions (including the euro
sign). This assumes all other products (for example hardware, software, firmware, etc.) used
with the IBM product are also EuroReady.
IBM considers a solution to be EuroReady when the solution providers have analyzed the
euro requirements, including the need to comply with relevant EC rules and built-in
appropriate function.
AS/400 support for euro currency includes updates to input, display, print, and process the
euro currency sign for both the host and PC client computing environments. This support
includes:
• Underlying operating system and Licensed Program Product (LPP) changes that are
transparent to the user
• The addition of euro country extended code pages (CECPs) and CCSIDs
