This section describes the server code pages and character sets supported for the ECI, EPI, and Client terminal emulator.
The server code pages supported for the ECI are the same as those supported by CICS® on System/390® for DPL requests. They are listed in CICS-supported conversions.
The server code page is determined from the conversion table, DFHCNV, installed on CICS on System/390.
The server code pages and character sets supported for the EPI and the terminal emulator function are shown in Table 45. The code pages are a subset of those supported for the ECI.
The server code page is determined from value 2 of the CGCSGID option of the TYPETERM used to install the virtual terminal definition. If the server code page, or the combination of client and server code pages, is invalid, the installation of the virtual terminal is rejected. If no server code page is specified, CICS uses a default, which it deduces from the value of the client code page, as shown in Table 44.
You can use value 1 of the CGCSGID field of the TYPETERM definition to specify the server character set for the EPI. If you specify an invalid character set, the installation of the virtual terminal is rejected. Alternatively, you can use the default character set supplied by CICS on System/390. Table 45 shows the server character sets and code pages supported for the EPI.
From CICS TS for z/OS Version 2.2 onwards, the supported character sets and codepages listed reflect the CGCSGID returned by a 3270 device in response to a Query Reply. Table 45 highlights all the differences between CICS TS for z/OS Version 2.2 (and later) and earlier CICS releases.
In CICS TS for z/OS Version 2.2 and later, if you want to use a unique National Language group use the code page and character set values.
