HOW TO USE DATA LOGGING
You can create a hard copy log of all text in the dialog area - this is known as data
logging. The AUTOPRINT command simultaneously copies text in the dialog area
to a hard copier as it's being displayed on the screen . You can use data logging
with a monochrome printer or a 4695 Copier.
To turn on data logging , follow these steps:
1. Be sure the printer or copier is connected to the terminal 's COPIER port and
both are turned on . (Appendix A tells you how to install your printer or copier.)
2. Put the terminal in Setup .
3. Activate data logging by entering :
AUTOPRINT YES
4 . Now when you use the dialog area, all text will be logged . You can exit Setup
and communicate with your host - this text will also be logged .
5 . To turn data logging off, be sure the terminal is in Setup and enter:
AUTOPRINT NO
When the terminal is in ANSI mode , you can toggle data logging without entering
Setup by programming a key to send host syntax commands. See Data Logging
Macro later in this section .
HOW TO ASSIGN AN ANSWERBACK MESSAGE
The terminal can store a password-like message that a host can verify before
releasing restricted information. The message has to be entered from the
terminal's keyboard (it can 't be sent from the host) .
Before assigning an
answerback message to your terminal, consult your systems programmer.
To assign the message to your terminal , follow these steps .
1. Put the terminal in Setup.
2. Enter the ANSWER BACK command , a beginning delimiter, the message , and
an ending delimiter. For example:
ANSWERBACK /PASSWORD/
