PAD Parameter Examples
PAD Parameter Examples
Following are narrative examples of the contents of a TELENET PAD profile, a
DATAPAC PAD profile, and a standard PAD profile.
TELENET Example
Suppose you are using the TELENET network. The terminal is conversation-mode
only. The subdevice must be configured for REMOTENET TELENET, with a subdevice
type and subtype of 6,0. Your application can execute successfully only if the
TELENET-specific parameter 57 with a value of 2 is sent to the PAD. Because a
network-specific parameter is required, you need to define a CPADPARMS list. The
CPADPARMS list must contain all of the default parameter codes as well as the
specific value 2 for parameter 57. Your application issues SETMODEs to change the
echo and line-feed insertion parameters. When you add the subdevice (with SCF), the
CPADPARMS parameter list is specified in the following format:
CPADPARMS (1,1 4,0 7,21 8,0 10,0 2,0 3,126 0,33 1,0 57,2)
2,0 is the echo parameter (X.3 parameter 2) and is in the format X25AM will recognize
for SETMODEs.
1,0 is the line-feed insertion parameter (TELENET parameter 1) and is in the format
X25AM will recognize for SETMODEs. The parameter code is preceded by the 0,0 flag
indicating that this is a modifiable parameter.
57,2 is the additional TELENET parameter required for the application. Note that this
parameter is not modifiable because X25AM does not recognize it.
DATAPAC Example
Suppose you need to define a 6510 block-mode terminal, subdevice type and subtype
6,1, that will be connected through a DATAPAC PAD. A DATAPAC-specific parameter,
parameter 100 with a value of 5, must be sent to the PAD if the application is to
execute successfully. Your application changes various parameter values with
SETMODE calls. When you add the subdevice (with SCF), the BPADPARMS
parameter list is specified in the following format:
BPADPARMS (1,1 2,0 4,0 7,21 8,0 10,0 3,0 100,5)
Standard Example
Suppose you need to define a standard 6530 block-mode terminal with a subdevice
type and subtype of 6,4. The terminal will be using the TRANSPAC network and no
special network-specific parameters are needed. The default list of parameters is
sufficient. In this case, it is not necessary to define a BPADPARMS list. The standard
default parameter list contains all of the required X.3 and network-specific parameters
in the format X25AM recognizes for SETMODEs.
