This topic describes enhancements or corrections since the publication of the BARR/RJE manual dated March 11, 1997. Use the links below to review changes and additions.
The DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.SYS NOEMS entry in the table under Memory Managers has been corrected to read:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS.
The Error Handling text has been corrected to read:
The source device is set to SUSPEND Retry and an error message displays on the Barr console. Jobs with invalid form names will remain in the SPOOL directory and Retry messages will be displayed. This is the same action that occurs after a disk write error. For this error handling method, the File Server and Print Queue fields on the Network Printer Options screen must be blank.
When a device is set to SUSPEND, the operator must correct the error from the Assign Devices screen. Change the destination from SUSPEND to a NET device that does not use the FCB/FORM to Print Queue Translation Table or to a NET device that has a default File Server and Print Queue. When the file finishes printing, change back to the original destination to resume normal file routing.
Table 8-1 has been updated to include Printer Model Genicom (D.P.I. - No L.P.I) and PCL codes.
The Form description has been corrected to read:
Form
If you want to print files that have a certain form name at software startup, enter a form name. The form name can contain up to eight characters. You can include the DOS wildcards * and ? in the form name to select groups of forms. If this field is blank, the form name is not used in the print selection criteria. If this field contains only an *, the form name is not used in the print selection criteria.
The following option has been added to the Printer Control screen: Xlate RJE Transparent Data to ASCII? The default is Yes.
The following option has been added to the Modem and Line Control screen: Always use broadcast XID? The default is No.
The Frmr entry in Table 22-4 has been replaced with the following entries:

Frame reject received |
A frame reject has been received. The five-byte reject information is included in the scope. This indicates a link level protocol violation was detected by the remote link station. One possible violation is an incompatible frame size between partners. Check that MAXDATA set in BARR/RJE matches MAXDATA set for the mainframe (or controller, if attached to a 3174 Controller). See Chapter 2 of the Host Definition Guide for more information about MAXDATA. |
