Task 8.8: Specify Private Enumerations of Other
Subsystems’ Tokens
Make the enumeration clause 40 characters or fewer with no AS clause specifying
the default display for this enumerated token. Use AS clauses in the individual
level 89 items. This information is displayed by the standard template.
Task 8.8: Specify Private Enumerations of Other Subsystems’
Tokens
If you added your own values to any enumerated tokens provided by another
subsystem, as defined in Tokens from Other Subsystems of your ES, list your values:
1. Start your values as required by that subsystem.
2. If you defined the token with 89 enumeration clauses, do the same with your
values.
Provide an 89 enumeration clause that briefly describes the type for each of your
event types. Make the enumeration clause 40 characters or fewer with no AS
clause specifying the default display for this enumerated token. Use AS clauses in
the individual level 89 items. This information is displayed by the standard
template. Do not specify a default display string for another subsystem’s tokens.
Task 8.9: Specify Private Enumerations of Your Subsystem's
Tokens
If you defined your own tokens—listed in Private Tokens of this Subsystem of your
ES—and they are defined as enumerations, specify their values:
1. Specify values for your enumerations.
2. Provide an 89 enumeration clause (40 characters or fewer) that briefly describes
the value. This simplifies the design (or customization) of your template for these
tokens. Use the AS clause to specify a default display string because these are
your own tokens.
Task 8.10: Define Event Subjects
Define the event subjects listed in the Event Subjects Definition Table of your ES.
Define only subjects that you specify, not subjects from other subsystems.
Whenever possible, define your subject as a printable ASCII string so the standard
tempaltes can display it. Otherwise you need to customize the standard templates.
Event subject is like any token. The event subject name listed in your ES is the
TOKEN-CODE literal.
Task 8.11: Define Private Tokens
If you defined your own tokens in Private Subsystem Tokens Definitions Table of your
ES (or defined your own subject tokens), define these tokens.
