Description

Valid settings for this parameter depend on the type of terminal and access method used (as shown below).

The value of TERMOPT is restored to the value set on the CCAIN user parameter line when the user logs out.

SettingMeaning
0 No options in effect; the bell is used as a prompt.
1 The question mark (?) rather than the bell is used as a prompt.
2 No pause occurs at end-of-page.
4 Using the Break key on input cancels the current output or request.
8 The read initial sequence on hard-wired terminals is not required. Read initial requires that the terminal be turned off and then on.
16 Five idles rather than three (the default) are used for each output line.
32No idles are included in output lines.
64 Line drop error recovery is handled by Model 204 (applies only to threads connected through COMTEN control units).
128 No end-of-block characters are transmitted by Model 204.

Valid settings for SNA Communications Server 3270s (where IODEV=7) are as follows. Options can be summed.

SettingMeaning
0 SNA Communications Server input exception causes soft restart of user.
1 No soft restart of user.
2 Request exception response only (no definite response).
64 The string LOGON is placed before the first logical line of the SNA Communications Server LOGMSG.
256 Some datastream optimization for the user thread is disabled. This setting typically causes about a 10% increase in 3270 datastream size, as shown in the OUTPB user statistic.
512 All datastream optimization for the user thread is disabled. This setting can cause a 100% increase in 3270 datastream size.

Valid settings of TERMOPT for SNA Communications Server 3767s and NTO terminals (IODEV=37) are as follows. Options can be summed.

Note: The IODEV=37 setting is no longer supported as of Model 204 version 7.6.

SettingMeaning
0 This is the default.
1 No idles are transmitted in output lines.
2 Terminal is always unlocked.
64 The string LOGON is placed before the first logical line of the SNA Communications Server LOGMSG.
