  The incorrect IMS version is printed in MSGFABP3840E.
  
  For example, if the PTF for IMS V14 support is not applied to
  IMS High Performance Pointer Checker and HD Pointer Checker is
  run under IMS V14, the incorrect IMS version '410' is printed in
  MSGFABP3840E as follows:
   FABP3840E UNSUPPORTED LEVEL OF IMS IS BEING USED: 410 IMS LEVEL
   OF THIS RUN
  In this case, the IMS version should be printed as '1410'.
