Responses

DISPLAY lines cols devtype addrtype dbcs color exthi pss pssets outline
Where:
lines
is the number of lines on the physical screen.
cols
is the number of columns on the physical screen.
devtype
is the type of display terminal:
  • ANR (Alpha Numeric Replacement) - such as 3270 to 3277 type displays.
  • NDS (New Display Systems) - such as 3278, 3279, 3290 type displays.
addrtype
is either 12BIT type address or 14BIT type address.
dbcs
is DBCS if Double-Byte Character Set (DBCS) strings are supported, or NODBCS if DBCS strings are not supported.
color
is COLOR, if color is available, or NOCOLOR.
exthi
is EXTHI, if extended highlighting is available, or NOEXTHI.
pss
is PSS, if Programmed Symbol sets are available, or NOPSS.
pssets
is the list of Programmed Symbol Sets (PSSET) currently loaded. 0, 1, 8, A, B, C, D, E, and F can be returned. Each character represents a PSSET. The PSSET value of 0 is always displayed.
Note: The response for pss (PSS or NOPSS) is for loadable programmed symbol sets only. PSS 1 and 8 are nonloadable programmed symbol sets. It is therefore possible to get a pss response of NOPSS with pssets 0, 1, 8 or all three.
outline
specifies whether the device supports field outlining. OUTLINE or NOOUTLIN is returned.
