Model 204 V5.1

Description

Specifies the initial size in bytes of the buffer used to hold the copy of the parameter area passed to an external module. Buffers are dynamically expanded when required; therefore, ECPSIZE indicates the initial and minimum size of the buffer. The minimum setting is 1024 as of M204 7.8. Prior to V7.8 the minimum value was 0. This change is enabled in V7.7 with the application of zap 77z306.

In Model 204 version 7.4, the maximum setting is 1310680. In Model 204 version 7.5, the maximum setting is 1966020.

There is no limit on the size of any image or images that are passed to any external module, except for modules with the PARMSIZE option.
