Selected FSL Functions

Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide

Timeout is specified in FSL Function 100 . This function has the following syntax (where "%" is the escape character):

%Y100,<timeout>[,user string]%

Timeout:	0 to 255 indicating number of
	seconds
	Factory default = 20 seconds
User	Optional - string in HEX to be sent to
string:	the printer before transmission of
	data, when the printer is selected by
	the share unit.

NOTE:

The Timeout string must be aone line command sequence (see example overleaf).

When function Y100 has been defined for the twinax port, the following will happen:

When the twinax port takes over the printer after another port has been used, the defined string will be sent to the printer and the FSL and host settings will be re-established.

Y100 = 0

If the FSL Y100 timeout string is set to zero, the user string and settings will be sent the next time the input is active after a time lapse of 20 seconds, even if no other input has been active.

Y100 > 0

If the FSL Y100 timeout string is set to a value higher than zero, the user string and settings will only be sent if a share condition has occurred.
