chan command
Use the chan command to:
• display the current channel in the transceiver
• change to the channel specified
Syntax
chan
chan <name>
where:
chan displays the name of the current channel.
<name> changes to the channel specified, if the channel is programmed into the
transceiver’s Channel List. The name is case sensitive.
Compatibility with CICS V2
For the chan command to be compatible with transceivers using CICS V2, make sure
that all the channel names in the transceiver are numerical.
Limitations
In CICS V3.00 (or later), channel names can be alphanumerical. In CICS V2 channel
names must be numerical. CICS V2 treats channel ‘1’ and channel ‘001’ as the same
channel: this is not the case with CICS V3.00 (or later).
NOTE
If you want to use the command to change to another channel, make sure
that the channel is programmed into the transceiver’s Channel List (see
page 137, Programming the Channel List).
