3270 Programmer’s Guide Introduction - 5 - 1. Introduction The 3270 Protocol Converter enables any Xerox laser printer to be connected to an IBM computer sys tem.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Introduction - 6 - In case the converter is equipped with a serial connector, it supports serial input or output. In all three printer drivers, centronics input and output is supported. The 3270 Protocol Converter can be used with most Xerox printers .
3270 Programmer’s Guide Introduction - 7 - Programmer’s Guide, Doc. no. D62030.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Introduction - 8 - • Full IBM 3268/87 and 4214 emulations including the APL feature and all applicable RPQs (subject to restrictions of the ASCII printers). • Serial input or output (in case of serial connector) • Access to all the special facilities on your Xerox printer from the host.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Introduction - 9 - The settings can be downloaded as special commands from your IBM system or from a PC to the Centronics or RS 232 (in case of serial connector) input port. The converter uses these commands for its own internal setup.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 10 - 2. Function Selection via the Line Function Selection via the Line (FSL) sequences are special com- mands used for the downloading of settings to the 3270 Protocol Converter . The syntax of an FSL command is shown below.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 11 - Once a character has been defined as the ESC character, it cannot be printed or used as a normal character. However, it is not neces- sary to have an ESC character defined permanently. When the ESC character has served its purpose, it can be deleted.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 12 - 2.1.1. Defining Temporary Escape Character No ESC character is defined when you receive the converter . If you wish to change the settings from the host system, you will have to define the ESC character .
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 13 - 2.1.2. Removing Temporary Escape Character If you wish to remove the temporary ESC character so that it may be used as a printable character, you can define it as a blank as shown below.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 14 - 2.1.4. Removing Permanent Escape Character If you wish to remove the permanent ESC character , you will have to follow the proce dure below: 1) Set Function 48, Select Permanent Escap e Character, to "00" (No ESC character ).
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 15 - NOTE: In command strings in hex pair notation, only the hexadecimal characters 0-9 and A-F are allowed.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Function Selection via the Line - 16 - NOTE: The apostrophe notation may also be used in the pro- gramming of Function 61, "Setup for User Strings", Function 62, &q.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory - 17 - 3. Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory Areas When your settings have been downloaded to the temporary mem- ory through the FSL Functions, you may wish to save them perma- nently for future uses.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory - 18 - See Fig. 3-1 below which illustrates the interaction of the three levels.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory - 19 - 3.2. Commands for Storing and Restoring Settings The following commands allow you to manage the temporary and the permanent memory areas.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory - 20 - 3.2.1. Functions where power off/on is needed Function 1 Buffer Size Function 7 Case Function 14 Enable Graphics Functio.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Manipulation of Temporary and Permanent Memory - 21 - 3.4. Restricting Access This facility allows you to restrict access to the temporary memory and/or the permanent memory areas. The command is an FSL com- mand which will have effect as soon as the converter receives it.
3270 Programmer’s Guide IBM Related Functions - 22 - 4. IBM 3270 Related Functions - Special Settings This chapter describes those FSL Functions specifically related to the requirements of the IBM 3270 system.
3270 Programmer’s Guide IBM Related Functions - 23 - there are differences depending on which printer driver you have selected. For colour selected by attrubute, the Function Y62 string options for colour have to be programmed.
3270 Programmer’s Guide IBM Related Functions - 24 - NOTE: If the converter is connected directly to an IBM 4331 or 4361, the buffer size of 1920 characters (Function Y1=2) should be specified, due to a hard ware restriction on the mainframe.
3270 Programmer’s Guide IBM Related Functions - 25 - If formatting problems occur at the initial installation of the converter , these problems may be solved by selecting the settings matching the appropriate IBM RPQs. However, as the RPQ settings interact to a great extent, it is recommended that you contact your point of purchase for details.
3270 Programmer’s Guide IBM Related Functions - 26 - • If a "BUSY" signal is received but no "DESELECT", "FAULT" or "PA PER ERROR" signal, it is handled as a busy signal.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Serial Input - 27 - 5. Serial Input NOTE: This section only applies if your product is equipped with a serial connector. The serial port is connected to the serial output on a PC or similar source to enable sharing the printer with the host.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Printer Sharing - 28 - 6. Printer Sharing The 3270 converter enables printer sharing between the system and a PC. For this purpose it is possible to specify a timeout period.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Translate Tables - 29 - 7. Printer Initialization by User Strings This chapter covers the facilities of the converter activated by simple command s and related to special FSL Functions. The FSL Functions and the converter commands are grouped according to their tasks.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Translate Tables - 30 - been programmed, you only need to enter 3 characters in the data- stream to send the user string to your printer. %Z<user string no. > Sending user string under host control Several functions relate to the user string facility.
3270 Programmer’s Guide Translate Tables - 31 - Here, 1A, 'ABCD' will exchange future occurences of escape 1A with ABCD. The rest of the sequence (:8F,'%Y2,8%') will exchange future occurences of escape 8F with %Y2,8% (to select 8 LPI).
