IBM manual Matching AS/400 parameters for retail controllers

Example: Connecting AS/400 to a finance network

Configuration parameters must be coordinated when you connect an AS/400 system to a 4701 finance controller.

Finance communications use high-level language operations and communications functions that allow you to communicate between an AS/400 system and finance controllers.

Matching AS/400 parameters for retail controllers

You must coordinate several AS/400 parameter values with retail controllers for retail communications. These values are specified for the AS/400 system and in the controller configuration.

For an example on connecting an AS/400 to a 4690 retail controller, see “Examples: Connecting AS/400 to a 4690 retail controller” on page 75.

To match parameters for VTAM definition statements, see the following.
