POINT TYPE=ABS—Execute form

You can use the execute form of the POINT macro when you code TYPE=ABS. The execute form uses and can modify a parameter list that is generated by the list form.

The description of the standard form of the POINT macro explains the function of each parameter. The format description below shows the optional and required parameters in the execute form only.

The execute form of the POINT macro is:

dcb address—RX-type address, (2-12)

block address—RX-type address, (2-12) or (0).

TYPE=ABS

indicates that the block number is a physical block identifier.

MF=(E,list-address)

specifies that the execute form of the POINT macro, and that an existing parameter list that was generated with MF=L. Initialize the parameter list before executing the execute form. Specify block address in either or both forms.
