L(nnnnn).JT(n) - Job Transmitter

The L(nnnnn).JT(n) statement specifies work selection characteristics for a job transmitter on one teleprocessing line or logical line (for SNA NJE terminals) to be used during network job entry. The work selection characteristics include size limits, by number of lines and pages, for data sets that the transmitter will accept. Use these limits to customize transmitter streams to specific workloads, such as large files or smaller message traffic, depending on the needs of the system. Identify the teleprocessing line by L(nnnnn), where nnnnn can be 1-65535. Identify the Job transmitter by .JT(n), where n can be 1-7.

Note: If a job transmitter number (n) is higher than the value of the JTNUM= parameter on the NJEDEF statement, or higher than an overriding STNUM= value on a LINE statement for this line, the transmitter is not created. When this statement is coded with a valid transmitter number, a full set of job transmitters and receivers is created for the line as specified on JRNUM=, JTNUM=, SRNUM=, and STNUM= parameters of the NJEDEF or LINE statements.

After you define the job transmitters, you can use the subscript on this statement name to modify transmitters, that is, individual lines (nnnnn), a range of lines in either ascending (n-m) or descending (m-n) order, or a generic range in ascending (n-*), descending (*-n) order, or an asterisk (*) to indicate all lines. The valid subscript range for the LINE statement is now 1–65535.
