When specifying a device type, consider the following:
If a program is running on an incompatible device type, the results can be
unpredictable, depending on the device type. For example, the results are
unpredictable when a SCREEN COBOL program compiled for an IBM 3270
terminal is executed on a 6530 terminal.
Programs compiled for 6520, 6530, and conversational-mode terminals can be
executed on a 6540 terminal defined as a 6530 device emulator.
You can run a program compiled for a 6520 terminal on 6530 and 6540 terminals.
If you specify a type T16-6520 and you run the program on a 6530 terminal, the
features that are unique to the 6530 terminal do not function. In the same way, if
you run programs compiled for 6530 terminals on 6540 terminals, the features
unique to the 6530 terminals do not function.
The TCP can execute the same SCREEN COBOL programs on different types of
devices; therefore, you can run SCREEN COBOL programs written for
conversational mode on some block mode devices.
If you specify type CONVERSATIONAL for a terminal, the SCREEN COBOL
programs compiled for a terminal operating in conversational mode can run on an
IBM 3270 terminal; 6520, 6530, and 6540 terminals; or any device operating as a
conversational-mode terminal recognized by the file system.
For information about conversational-mode terminal characteristics, see the
Guardian Programmer's Guide.
Unlike the PATHCOM interface, which allows you to specify the device type by
number or name, you can specify the device type only by name for the Pathway
management programming interface.

ZPWY-DDL-TERMTYPE-INFO provides information about the device type that the
TCP uses for running a SCREEN COBOL program on a device.
