A solution for emulating a hardware device is provided. In particular, a communication device that includes a standard mode of operation and a mapping mode of operation is used together with a control program to emulate communication with the hardware device. The mapping mode of operation is used to implement communication functionality that requires hardware, while the control program emulates other communication functionality previously provided by the hardware device. As a result, a protocol, such as a channel protocol, that requires hardware functionality can be successfully emulated using both the control program and the communication device.
