Examples of the UCS parameter

z/OS MVS JCL Reference
SA23-1385-00

Example 1
//DD1 DD UNIT=1403,UCS=(YN,,VERIFY)

In this example, the DD statement requests a 1403 Printer. The UCS parameter requests the chain or train for special character set code YN. Because VERIFY is coded, the system will display the character set image on the printer before the data set is printed.

Example 2
//DD2  DD  SYSOUT=G,UCS=PN

In this example, the DD statement requests the device for output class G. If the device is a printer with the UCS feature, the system loads the UCS image for code PN. If the device is an impact printer, the system asks the operator to mount the chain or train for PN, if it is not already mounted. If the device is a 3800, the system uses the UCS subparameter to select the character-arrangement table. Otherwise, the system ignores the UCS parameter.
