Description

The terminal options

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

Valid settings for SNA Communications Server 3270s (where IODEV=7) are (options can be summed):

SettingMeaning
0SNA Communications Server input exception causes soft restart of user.
1No soft restart of user.
2Request exception response only (no definite response).
64The string LOGON is placed before the first logical line of the SNA Communications Server LOGMSG.
256Some 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.
512All 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 (options can be summed):

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