Device type (DEVTYPE)

Specifies the device type.

The possible values are:

*TRANSFORM
The SCS-to-ASCII host print transform function support is used by the ASCII printer.
*CTXFORM
IBM Transform Services configuration support.
device-type
Specify the device type to be used. See the Workstation Customization Programming book for a list of allowed device types.

Keyboard language type (KBDTYPE)

Specifies the 3-character keyboard language identifier (used for EBCDIC and ASCII) for this display station.

The possible value is:

keyboard-language-type
Specify the 3-character country or region identifier (used for EBCDIC and ASCII) for this display station.

See the Keyboard language type prompt (KBDTYPE parameter) on the Change Device Description (Display) (CHGDEVDSP) or the Create Device Description (Display) (CRTDEVDSP) in the CL Reference for a list of the valid identifiers and the language the identifier represents. The ASCII device groups (if applicable) are also shown for each language.

Manufacturer type and model (MFRTYPMDL)

Specifies the manufacturer, type, and model for an ASCII printer using host print transform function support or for Transform Services configuration support. See the Create Device Description (Printer) (CRTDEVPRT) command in the CL Reference for a list of the supported manufacturers, types, and models for ASCII printers using host print transform function support or Transform Services configuration support.

Source member (SRCMBR)

Specifies the name of the source file member to receive the retrieved table attributes.

Keyboard attached (KBD)

Specifies the keyboard type.

The possible values are:

*DATA5250
A 5250 data entry keyboard is specified.
*TYPE5250
A 5250 typewriter keyboard is specified.
*DATA122
A 122 key data entry keyboard is specified.
*TYPE122
A 122 key typewriter keyboard is specified.
*ENHANCED
An enhanced keyboard is specified.

Source file (SRCFILE)

Specifies the name of the source file in which a member is created to contain the retrieved table attributes. If the source file does not exist, it is created. The coded character set identifier for the source file is *HEX.

The possible library values are:

*LIBL
The library list is used to locate the source file.
*CURLIB
The current library for the job is used to locate the source file. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used.
library-name
Specify the name of the library where the source file is located.

The possible values are:

QTXTSRC
The IBM-supplied source file QTXTSRC is used.
source-file-name
Specify the name of the source file.

Text 'description' (TEXT)

Specifies the description of the created source physical file member.

The possible values are:

*BLANK
Text is not specified.
'description'
Specify a description for the source physical file member.

Examples

RTVWSCST   DEVTYPE(5251)  KBDTYPE(USB)  SRCMBR(MYSOURCE)
           KBD(*DATA5250)  SRCFILE(MYLIB/QTXTSRC)

This command retrieves the system mapping tables for a 5251 twinaxial display with a 5250 data entry type keyboard attached using the U.S. basic language. The tables are stored in source member MYSOURCE in source file QTXTSRC in library MYLIB.
