Using Autopage with CSPG

A hardcopy terminal that is not defined as a paging terminal (one that displays pages when you request them) is an autopaging terminal (one that displays all pages without your intervention). An autopaging terminal may be temporarily designated as a paging terminal by the user’s application program using the NOAUTOPAGE option of the SEND PAGE command. If this is done at the time the first page is to be displayed on the terminal, the terminal is temporarily treated as a paging terminal for the duration of the message.

This condition exists until either of the following occurs:

  1. You enter P/A (reset terminal to autopaging status), indicating that all subsequent pages are to be displayed without further intervention.
  2. You enter T/C (terminate current message). All pages from that logical message are purged, and the terminal is again put into autopaging status.

P/ is the paging transaction identifier, and T/ is the terminate transaction identifier.
