Chapter 4  Using RJE in Batch and Interactive Mode 

This chapter contains the following information:

 *  Batch mode operations discussion.

 *  Interactive mode operations discussion.

 *  Examples showing you how to write and execute RJE command sequences
    that will enable your HP 3000 computer system to communicate with the
    following remote processors:

     *  A remote job processing system such as an IBM 370-compatible
        computer.

     *  An IBM 2780 Data Transmission Terminal.

     *  Another HP 3000 computer system that is executing the RJE
        subsystem.

        The examples are in two sections:  annotated batch (streamed job)
        mode usage examples and interactive usage examples.  Each example
        is thoroughly explained so you can easily follow what is
        happening.


NOTE In the examples that communicate with a remote job processing system, the remote system is assumed to be similar to IBM HASP360. For example, it is assumed that: * You do not have to transmit a terminal ID when establishing the communications link. * You must transmit a signon card image immediately followed by an EOT control character after the communications link has been established and before any other input/output activity is performed. * You must transmit a signoff card image just before terminating the communications link.
By making minor alterations to the command sequences, you can adapt these examples to communicate with almost any remote job processing system. For instance, in the example that communicates with an IBM 2780, you can adapt the example to communicate with an IBM 3780 or another similar communications terminal by making minor alterations to the #RJLINE and #RJIN commands.
NOTE All examples in this chapter are for reference only.
