Function Selection via the Line

Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide

NOTE:

When this pass-through option (with the lead-in/lead-out sequences) i used, it should be noted that apostrophe notation cannot apply. Only EBCDIC characters 0-9, A-F, a-f and spaces are accepted after a lead-in sequence. Control codes are suppressed. Other characters will terminate pass-through mode.

3.Filtered pass-through

To enter filter mode in XES, a lead-in and a lead-out string defined in function Y48 must be used:

Filter mode:

<start string>-<stop string>

This setting makes any text and IBM commands other than hex transparent data to be suppressed.

Normal mode

<start string>+<stop string>

This settings enables normal handling of text and IBM commands outside hex transparent data.

For details refer to the programmers guide, doc. D62081.

8.9. Transparency Mode Limitations

XES

The supported FSL functions of Xerox FS 5250 are accepted in all modes, but they have limited influence on the formatting in the various modes (Y70 and Y36).

For details on the FSL functions' influence on the formatting, you are referred to the Programmer's Guide, doc. no. D62081.
