CMS Advanced Options Dialog Box

Getting there

Open a 3270 terminal session and then open the Transfer Settings dialog box.

The steps depend on your user interface mode.

User Interface Mode	Steps
Ribbon	On the Session ribbon, from the Transfer group, click the Transfer Settings launcher:
Reflection Browser	On the Reflection menu, choose Tools and then File Transfer. In the Transfer dialog box, click the Settings button.
TouchUx	Tap the Wrench icon and then under Tools, select File Transfer. In the Transfer dialog box, click the Settings button.

With Mainframe selected under Protocol, click the Mainframe tab.
Under Host, from the System list, select CMS.
Click the Advanced button.

The options are:

Logical record length

Type the record size (in bytes) for the file being created on the host. If you leave this box blank, the record size is determined by the host. Use a value between 0 and 32768 to accommodate the range accepted by your host.

For ASCII files, set this value to accommodate the longest line in your file. When you leave this box blank, the host typically accepts lines of up to 80 characters.

CR/LF processing

When you select one of these options, a carriage return character and a linefeed character are stripped from the end of each line of the file you are sending.

CR/LF processing is typically appropriate for ASCII and JISCII files but not for binary files; the defaults for these options are set up accordingly.

Additional IND$FILE parameters	Use this text box for any parameters specific to the IND$FILE (or APVUFILE) program on your host system. The contents of this text box are appended to the end of the transfer command generated by Reflection. Reflection does not check the contents of this text box for validity.
