6500-LU1-SCS-Remote SNA 3174 Control Unit

LU1-SCS mode is utilized when neither IPDS nor PSF is needed to accomplish the print function desired. An existing remote 3174 SNA-connected control unit is assumed. The steps required to install a remote LU1-SCS printer for host definitions are as follows:
  1. Define to NCP, point to LU1 logmode entry defined below
  2. Define to VTAM by adding logmode entry to VTAM Logmode Table
  3. Define to JES2 (May not required if VPS. See details below)
  4. Define to JES328X Print Facility, VPS, or equivalent product.
  5. Select the options on the printer that are appropriate for the environment.

Step 1 - NCP Definition

XYZ     GROUP    TYPE=NCP,...

LINK    ADRESS=(032),...

REMPU74 PU       ADDR=C1,...

REM6500 LU       LOCADDR=#,(#replaced by port on control unit)

        DLOGMOD=6500SCSR,(Default LOGMODE ENTRY NAME)

        MODETAB=MYTABLE (Table name containing MODEENT)*

Step 2 - VTAM Definition

* The following entry should be placed in the VTAM MODE TABLE specified above or another of your choice.

6500SCSR MODEENT LOGMODE=6500SCSR,

    FMPROF=X'03',TSPROF=X'03',PRIPROT=X'B1',

    SECPROT=X'90',COMPROT=X'3080',RUSIZES=X'87C6',

    PSERVIC=X'01000000E100000000000000',

    PSNDPAC=X'01',SRCVPAC=X'01'

Step 3 - JES2 Definition

This definition is not required if you are using VPS and using U1 - U9999 as the printer ID.

RMT1 LUTYPE1,BUFSIZE=3840,LINE=1,NUMRD=0,NUMPR=1,NOCOMP,NOCMPCT,

          SETUPHDR,CONSOLE (SETUPHDR=PDIR JES2 V3)

R1.PR1 CLASS=A,NOSEP,PRWIDTH=132,NOFCBLOD,WS=(W,R,Q,PMD,LIM,F,T/C,P),

          CKPTPAGE=30

DESTID NAME=P6500,DEST=R1

Step 4 - Define to CICS or another application program

An application program must provide the SCS commands to control the printer. CICS, VPS, and other applications support SCS as well as numerous application programs, both customer written and vendor supplied. Refer to the vendor documentation for defining an SCS printer to the program for its use. If there is no specific information on the 6500 you may use the IBM 4234 for reference.

Step 5 - Printer Settings

It is recommended that the following printer settings be changed from factory default settings:
