Auto-Reset Terminals?

Hey All!

I have Secure shell opened on my home firewall so I can get to the machine
running MVS/Hercules.

Problem is that sometimes when I go to logon I don't get the TSO net
solicitor, I get the Terminal
Controller Screen (?). Now if I am home I just go to the console on the
machine and hit PF 2 and
vary the device off then on - What can I do if I am away?

Do any of you use your mainframes remotely?
