DBCS 3270 File Transfer supports additional parameters. You may use or allow your users to use the following: for TSO), UNIT (SEND for TSO), VOLUME (SEND for TSO), DELETE (RECEIVE for CICS), comments after ")" (SEND for CICS) are also DBCS 3270 File Transfer unique parameters. These are not related to DBCS or NLS but supported just for ]

SO (RECEIVE)

To insert the pseudo SO/SI into the target PC file. The values of the pseudo SO and SI are, respectively, 0EH and 0FH if the USER option is not specified, or 1EH and 1FH if specified.

Since the pseudo SI/SO are neglected by the SEND command, you can send PC files containing the pseudo SO/SI back to a host without any problem. (The pseudo SO/SI at invalid positions, such as an unpaired one, are also neglected by SEND, i.e. without seeing the context.)

Note:

• Usage of the USER option should be consistent between RECEIVE and SEND.

• When the USER option is not specified, SEND will not regard 1EH/1FH in the PC data as the pseudo SO/SI and translate them to 1EH (Information Record Separator) and 1FH (Information Unit Separator) in the host data.

• When the USER option is specified, SEND will not regard 0EH/0FH in the PC data as the pseudo SO/SI and translate them to 3FH (substitution character) in the host data.
USER
To use the editable translation table defined by SYSCTBL utility. (This option is for compatibility with, or migration from DBCS 3270PC/2, Asia Pacific unique products.)

DBCS 3270 File Transfer does not support MIGR or SUB parameter.

NOSO (SEND)
Remove SO/SI from the target host file.
