Start Tell - HP NonStop Pathway/iTS Programming Manual

Tell Message Commands

START TELL

Use the START TELL command to allow a pending tell message to be delivered to the
terminals for which it has been queued by the TELL TERM command.
The TCP waits for the terminal operator to complete the current screen before
displaying the message, so normal operation is not disrupted.
Tell messages are not currently supported for intelligent devices, except for personal
computers and workstations connected to a HP NonStop Server using the RSC
(Remote Server Call) product.
Continuation
You cannot use continuation with this command to start delivery of all tell messages;
you must explicitly start each tell message by number.
