M204.1676 Invalid 3270 SBA in input stream: x'hexValue'
After the user pressed the Enter key on the IBM 3270 terminal, the terminal transmitted data that is not valid according to the 3270 specifications. The last six characters of the error message are the invalid portion of the input stream in hexadecimal format. They are displayed with the preceding part of the input stream.
Any data entered by the user will remain on the screen, and the user will be prompted to press Enter again. Model 204 processes all data that the user enters.
