Syntax 

TELLOP [text]

Parameter 

text                  Message text, preceded by a space and consisting of
                      any string of ASCII characters.  Default is that no

Operation Notes 

This command sends a message to the system console.  The message text
appears on the system console, preceded by the time it was transmitted
and your job/session number.  Like messages transmitted between users
(TELL command), this message is printed as soon as possible without
interrupting any console input/output currently in progress.  The message
can be sent to the system console, even if no session is logged on or if
an active session is running in QUIET mode.

Use 

This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK.
Pressing Break has no effect on this command.

Example 

To ask the system operator to mount a tape, enter:

     TELLOP PLS MOUNT MYTAPE,VERSION 1
