For block-mode devices like a 3215, control characters are entered using 
an escape sequence.  The escape character for CONTROL is EBCDIC 0xB0.
-  Circumflex/hat (^) in code page 37 
-  Logical NOT (¬) in code page 1047
-  Cent sign (¢) in most other code pages

If in doubt, check your emulator's code page setting, then go to 
http://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/cp/cp_cpgid.html  to find out 
what glyph (character) is assigned to EBCDIC 0xB0.  Use your emulator's 
keyboard map to find out where that character is located.

Enter ^c to get control-c.  Also available are control-d (EOF) and 
control-z (suspend).
