RMTGEN Parameters for HASP Version 4 System/360 Workstation

Specifies the unit address of the Binary Synchronous Communication Adapter used by the System/360 remote terminal to communicate with HASP at the central computer. The specification must be a valid unit address.

Specifies the minimum number of characters to be compressed for all text compression except trailing blank compression. A duplicate character string of fewer than &CCT characters will be treated as a string of nonduplicate characters for compression purposes. The specification must be an integer between 3 and 31, inclusive.

Specifies type of compression to be applied to all text transmitted from the System/360 remote terminal to the central computer. The specification must be either 1, 2, or 3. The value 1 specifies trailing blank compression; 2 specifies compression of leading, embedded, and trailing blanks; 3 specifies compression of all duplicate character strings.

Specifies the main storage size of the System/360 remote terminal in Kbytes (1 Kbyte = 1024 bytes). The specification must be an integer between 8 and 32, inclusive. If the System/360 is larger than 32K bytes, &CORESIZ must be specified as 32.

Specifies the number of four byte entries to be assembled in the System/360 remote terminal as an error message log table. The specification must be an integer not less than 8.

Specifies the speed, in baud, of the communication line to be used between the System/360 remote terminal and the central computer. The specification must be a positive integer.

Specifies the model number of the System/360 to be used as a HASP remote terminal. The specification must be a valid number for a System/360 that includes the standard instruction set and the decimal instruction set.

Specifies the number of teleprocessing buffers to be constructed by the System/360 RTP program. The specification must be an integer no less than:

where X = the number of 2520 or 1442 units used as both a reader and a punch.

Specifies the number of decompression buffers ("decompression tanks") to be assembled in the System/360 RTP program. The specification must be an integer not less than 2*(number of 2540 punches attached).

Subscripted variable symbols &PADR(n) specify unit addresses for the printers defined by &PDEV(n). For each &PDEV(n) not specified as zero, the corresponding symbol &PADR(n) must specify the device's 3-character hexadecimal unit address.

Subscripted variable symbols &PDEV(n) specify the existence and device types of the remote terminal printers. Each specification must be either 1403, 1443, or 0. A specification of 0 indicates that the associated printer does not exist.

Specifies the length in bytes of the text portion of each decompression tank. Each tank must be long enough to hold a maximum-length output record for either a printer, a punch, or the operator console. The specification must be an integer that is the larger of 120 or line width of the widest printer.

Subscripted variable symbols &RADR(n) specify unit addresses for the readers defined by &RDEV(n). For each &RDEV(n) not specified as zero, the corresponding symbol &RADR(n) must specify the device's 3-character hexadecimal unit address.

Subscripted variable symbols &RDEV(n) specify the device types of the remote terminal readers. Each must be either 2540, 2501, 1442, 2520, or 0. A of 0 indicates that the associated reader does not exist.

Subscripted variable symbols &UADR(n) specify unit addresses for the punches defined by &UDEV(n). For each &UDEV(n) not specified as zero, the corresponding symbol &UADR(n) must specify the device's 3-character hexadecimal unit address.

Subscripted variable symbols &UDEV(n) specify the existence and device types of the remote terminal punches. Each specification must be either 2540, 1442 or 0. A specification of 0 indicates that the associated punch does not exist.

Subscripted variable symbol &WADR(1) specifies the unit address of the 1052 Operator Console on the System/360 remote terminal. The specification must be a 3-character hexadecimal unit address.

Specifies the maximum length in bytes of a HASP operator command to be transmitted from the System/360 remote terminal to the central computer. The specification must be a positive integer not greater than 120.

Specifies presence (YES) or absence (NO) of the Text Transparency feature. If the Binary Synchronous Communication Adapters at both the System/360 remote terminal and the central computer have the Text Transparency feature, YES should be specified; otherwise, NO should be specified.
