Multithread processing is a TPF option. It is intended primarily for logical units that support financial service terminals (Models 3606 and 3608). However, it is available for all 3600-type logical units. In multithread processing, either side can send the next message before it receives a response from the previous message. The multithread option is specified during generation of the network. However, TPF does not support 3600 multithread processing concurrent with message recovery. Message recovery is also specified during generation of the network. The two features are mutually exclusive because of constraints in the routing control parameter list (RCPL) introduced by 3-byte RID support.
