- LINES(integer) | NOLINES
- LINES(integer) 1
- specifies an integer from 1 to 255 that indicates you want the
opportunity to request an attention interruption after the specified
number of lines of continuous output has been directed to your terminal.
- NOLINES 1
- specifies output line count is not to be used for controlling
an attention interruption. This is the default condition.
- SECONDS(integer) | NOSECONDS
- SECONDS(integer) 1
- specifies an integer from 10 to 2550 (in multiples of 10) to indicate
that you want the opportunity to request an attention interruption
after a number of seconds has elapsed during which the terminal has
been locked and inactive. If you specify an integer that is not a
multiple of 10, it is changed to the next largest multiple of 10.
- NOSECONDS 1
- specifies elapsed time is not to be used for controlling an attention
interruption. This is the default condition.
- INPUT(string) | NOINPUT
- INPUT(string) 1
- specifies the character string, if entered as input, will cause
an attention interruption. The string must be the only input entered
and cannot exceed 4 characters in length.
- NOINPUT 1
- specifies no character string will cause an attention interruption.
This is the default condition.
- BREAK | NOBREAK
- BREAK
- specifies, for IBM® 3767
and IBM 3770 terminals, the
system can interrupt your input. For other terminals, it specifies
that your terminal keyboard is to be unlocked to allow you to enter
input whenever you are not receiving output from the system. The
system can interrupt your input with high-priority messages. Because
use of BREAK with a terminal type can result in loss of output or
error, check with your installation system manager before specifying
this operand.
Note: If a command processor for a
display device is operating in full-screen mode, VTAM treats the device as if it were operating
in NOBREAK mode. For a more detailed description, see z/OS TSO/E Programming Services.
- NOBREAK
- specifies, for IBM 3767
and IBM 3770 terminals, the
system is not allowed to interrupt you (break in) with a message when
you are entering data. For other terminals, it specifies that your
terminal keyboard is to be unlocked only when your program or a command
you have used requests input.
The default for the BREAK/NOBREAK
operand is determined when your installation defines the terminal
features.
- TIMEOUT | NOTIMEOUT
- TIMEOUT 1
- specifies your terminal keyboard will lock automatically after
approximately 9 to 18 seconds of no input.
- NOTIMEOUT 1
- specifies your terminal keyboard will not lock automatically after
approximately 9 to 18 seconds of no input.
The default for the
TIMEOUT/NOTIMEOUT operand is determined when your installation defines
the terminal features.
- LINESIZE(integer)
- specifies the length of the line (the number of characters) that
can be printed at your terminal. The integer must not exceed 255.
LINESIZE is not applicable to the IBM 3270
display stations. The default values are:
- Teletype 33/35: 72 characters
- IBM 2741 Communication Terminal:
120 characters
- IBM 3767 Communication Terminal:
132 characters
- IBM 3770 Communication System:
132 characters
If LINESIZE (80) is coded with a RECFM equal to U, then the
line is truncated. The byte truncated (the last byte) is reserved
for an attribute character.
If you use LINESIZE to adjust the
line length of an LU1 device, the line length defaults to zero.
- CLEAR(string) | NOCLEAR
- CLEAR(string) 1
- specifies a character string, if entered as input, causes the
screen of an IBM 3270 Display
Station to be erased. The string must be the only input entered and
cannot exceed 4 characters in length.
- NOCLEAR 1
- specifies that you do not want to use a sequence of characters
to erase the screen of an IBM 3270
Display Station. This is the default condition.
- SCRSIZE(rows,length)
- specifies the screen dimensions of an IBM 3270 Display Station, an LU2 device with VTAM, and a Network Terminal Option
(NTO) terminal. When you specify the SCRSIZE operand, you must use
the LINESIZE operand to get continuous writing on a NTO terminal.
If
you are running under Session Manager, the system
ignores SCRSIZE. - rows
- specifies the maximum number of lines of data that can appear
on the screen.
- length
- specifies the maximum number of characters in a line of data displayed
on the screen.
Standard screen sizes (in rows and length)
are: - 6,40
- 12,40
- 12,80
- 15,64
- 24,80
- 27,132
- 32,80
- 43,80
The default values for the screen sizes are determined when
your installation defines the terminal features.
- TRAN(name) | NOTRAN
- TRAN(name)
- specifies a load module that contains tables used to translate
specific characters you type at the terminal into different characters
when they are seen by TSO/E. Conversely, when these characters are
sent by TSO/E to the terminal, they are retranslated. Translation
of numbers and uppercase letters is not allowed.
Character translation
is especially useful when you are using a correspondence keyboard
and would like to type the characters: <, >, │.
They are
not available on a correspondence keyboard. For example, translation
tables make it possible for you to specify that when you type the
characters: [, ], !.
TSO/E interprets them as <, >, and |.
- NOTRAN
- specifies no character translation is to take place.
- CHAR | NOCHAR
- CHAR
- specifies one or more pairs of characters, in either hexadecimal
or character notation, that replace characters in the translation
tables specified by TRAN(name) or in the default translation tables.
When the default translate is used, all unprintable characters are
set to blanks. The first character of the pair is the character typed,
printed, or displayed at the terminal. The second character is the
character seen by TSO. Translation of numbers and uppercase letters
is not allowed. Do not select characters that might be device control
characters.
- NOCHAR
- specifies all character translations previously specified by CHAR
are no longer in effect.
1 Not supported with terminals that use VTAM®.
