wish to execute the Keep Alive actions in the associated Logon Component
whenever the connection is active but free (i.e. not being used by a 5250
Terminal component). The number you enter here should be less than the
Timeout period defined on the host for an inactive connection.
10 The Inactivity Lifetime (minutes) number represents (in minutes) how long
you wish to keep an active free connection available before closing out the
connection and returning it to the inactive portion of the connection pool.
Remember, that once the connection is returned to its inactive state in the
pool, it will incur the overhead of logging in and navigating host screens
when it is re-activated.

expression is true (see discussion above). If you choose to do so, the
expression field automatically displays and you can click on the expression
