62 Rocket Model 204 Terminal User’s Guide
IBM 3270 terminals (IODEV = 11)
Page header formats
HDRCTL consists of a series of switches that control the formatting of pages
transmitted to the terminal. Each switch can be set independently of the others.
HDRCTL can be reset to the following values for 3270 terminals, but is usually
not reset:
Pausing and canceling output
At the end of each page of output, Model 204 pauses to allow the user to read
the contents of the screen and to cancel the current request if too much output
is being received. A prompting greater than sign (>) is displayed, indented 25
spaces on the last line of the screen.
Valid user responses are:
• Press Enter. The terminal goes on to the next page.
• Press the attention key or enter *CANCEL, C (cancel), or K (kill), followed
by Enter. Unless an ON ATTENTION statement is in effect (see “Attention
interrupt feature”), the current output and request are cancelled.
• Enter a backpage request. (See “Backpaging” on page 7).
• Enter the next input line, which cannot exceed 53 characters. As the user
enters input, the cursor moves in order to indicate the number of spaces
used.
As discussed in the section “Pausing” on page 7, enter only one line of
anticipatory input at this time. If the terminal reaches the end-of-page pause for
the next page of output, the saved input line is lost.
Canceling the current request
The user can cancel the evaluation of the current User Language request in
one of the following ways:
• If the terminal is waiting for input, press the attention key.
