Description

This is a bitmask parameter with the following meanings for the bits:

X'01'
Enable MODEL 6 support (Terminal MODEL 6 support). MODEL 6 support allows terminals with essentially arbitrary numbers of rows and columns, making it easier to better utilize a workstation's screen size.
X'02'
Always issue a Write Structured Field Query for terminals connecting to Model 204 through VTAM. This allows Model 204 to dynamically determine the screen geometry of any terminal connecting to it through VTAM, without having to issue a RESET MODEL 6 command. The downside of this setting is that it could add a small amount of time to the initial connection process and a slight amount of extra network traffic.

If a terminal is using a non-standard screen geometry under MODEL 6 support, the Model 204 editor and command line correctly uses the available screen space. Many RKTools subsystems, such as those for SirScan, SirMon, and SirPro, also take advantage of the additional available screen space.

X'04'
Translate to/from base code page for VTAM and TELNET connections. If SIRTERM X'03' is set, the Code Page obtained from the Write Structured Query Response is used to translate the input and output data streams to correct mismatches between the site's codepage and a user's code page. Currently Code Pages 0037,1047 and Windows-1252 extended variants are supported.
