The problem may be that SGI uses the F3 and F4 functions keys for their
snarf-n-barf operation under 4sight.  You can use the 'bindkey' function
to redefine the keyboard mappings.  If you put them all in a script and call
the script to connect to your VM system, it might look like this:

-----------------
#! /bin/sh
stty intr '^]'
bindkey -r f1
bindkey -r f2
bindkey -r f3
bindkey -r f4
bindkey -r f5
bindkey -r f6
bindkey -r f7
bindkey -r f8
bindkey -r f9
bindkey -r f10
bindkey -r f11
bindkey -r f12
bindkey -r print-scrn
bindkey -r insert
bindkey -r delete
bindkey -r end 
bindkey -r home
bindkey -r scroll-lock
bindkey -r pause
bindkey -r page-up
bindkey -r page-down
/usr/local/bin/tn3270 vm
