Beginning an EDF session (single-screen mode)

About this task

To start an EDF session with a single terminal, clear the screen and enter the transaction identifier, CEDF. The EDF inputs and outputs are interleaved with those of the transaction. This is known as single-screen mode.

CEDF

When you press ENTER, the response is:

THIS TERMINAL: EDF MODE ON

Now clear the screen and enter the name of your transaction. Figure 1 shows the initial screen for a typical transaction using EDF.
