Describes the machine features for a specific link-attached non-SNA terminal. See Planning for NetView, NCP, and VTAM for a description of start-stop terminal planning considerations.

When coding the FEATUR2 operand on the PU and LU definition statements, see NTO Planning, Migration, and Resource Definition for more information.

FEATUR2=DUALCSE
FEATUR2=LOWERCSE: Specifies how VTAM sends alphabetical characters coded with the TEXT operand on a USSMSG macroinstruction to a non-SNA terminal over the SSCP-LU session. This value does not affect non-alphabetical characters or any characters coded on the BUFFER operand of a USSMSG macroinstruction.
Code LOWERCSE to indicate that alphabetical characters are sent to the terminal over the SSCP-LU session in lowercase. Code DUALCSE to indicate that VTAM sends all characters as they are coded in the USSMSG macroinstruction.
FEATUR2=EDATS
FEATUR2=NOEDATS: Tells VTAM whether this terminal has the extended data stream feature. You cannot use this operand for terminals attached by SDLC lines.
Coding EDATS for a BSC line will cause the NCP to place the line in transparent text mode.
FEATUR2=MODEL1
FEATUR2=MODEL2: Identifies the specific model number (Model 1 or 2) for this 3275, 3277, 3284, or 3286 component. Code MODEL1 for those devices that have a default screen or buffer size of 480 bytes. Code MODEL2 for those devices that have a default screen or buffer size of 1920 bytes.
This information is available to an application program as part of the device characteristics pertaining to this terminal. You can obtain the characteristics using the INQUIRE macroinstruction. For more information about using the INQUIRE macroinstruction, see z/OS Communications Server: SNA Programming.
FEATUR2=NOPRINTR
FEATUR2=PRINTR: Specifies whether this terminal has an attached IBM® 3284 Model 3 printer. This operand is valid only if you code TERM=3275 or if TERM=3275 is assumed by NCP definition statement sequencing for this statement.
FEATUR2=NOSELPEN
FEATUR2=SELPEN: Specifies whether this terminal supports a selector pen.
