Cleo 3780Plus Command Summary
Answer (minutes)
The Answer command configures your modem to answer inbound calls. The
minutes option allows you to wait a fixed time to answer inbound calls.
Autodial (phone number)
The Autodial command dials a phone number to connect to a remote computer.
You have complete control over time-outs and re-dial attempts. The Autodial
command supports the most popular dialing methods, both synchronous and
asynchronous.
Binary (filename)
The Binary command sends a file to the remote computer in transparent
mode with or without the ASCII to EBCDIC character translation (see alsoText
). This command allows you to send any type of file to the remote computer.
Branch
The Branch command is used within script files to alter the flow of
commands based on the previous command. This allows you to create powerful
script files which can respond to various communication scenarios. The
Branch command allows you to jump within the job file based on a variety
of conditions including:
- Branch on status --
- Branch on the status of the previous command
- Branch on return code --
- Branch on a return code from another program or operating system command.
- Branch on SIZE --
- Branch based on the size of the last received file
- Branch on COUNTER --
- Branch on the value of a specified counter
- Branch on TRUE --
- Branch unconditionally
Config (filename)
The Config command interactively configures 3780Plus or
loads a previously saved configuration setup.
Data
The Data command enables the communications line and/or modem for data
transfer.
Eot
The EOT command transmits the EOT (End of Transmission) character to
end a file transfer.
Execute (filename)
The Execute command runs commands from the specified script file. 3780Plus
allows you to enter commands into a job (script) file for unattended operation.
Job file commands in conjunction with the Branch command
allow you to create scripts that allow 3780Plus to operate
without user intervention. Job files may be used to run 3780Plus
at non-peak hours when telephone costs are lower.
Help
The Help command displays the list of 3780Plus commands.
Job (filename)
The Job command creates a new job (script) file or scrambles an existing
job file. This command allows you to create a job file for unattended operation
(see also Execute ). This command may also be used
to scramble or encode existing script files so that sensitive information
can be protected.
Key (message)
The Key command transmits a keyboard message to the remote computer.
Log (message)
The Log command allows you to display the log file, write messages to
the log file, or turn the logging option on or off. 3780Plus
supports a comprehensive log feature which records all the activity
during a session. The log file can be restarted or kept as a perpetual
file to examine the results of any communications session.
Monitor (filename)
The Monitor command may be used to display or save to disk the protocol
traffic during a communications session. The monitor is a powerful tool
to aid in diagnosing any problems that may occur during the communications
session.
Print (filename)
The Print command allows you to receive printer output to a file. This
file may optionally be spooled to the printer by 3780Plus.
The 3780 printer escape codes are translated to the correct action.
Quit
The Quit command exits 3780Plus.
Receive (filename)
The Receive command receives transparent or non-transparent, binary
or text data, to a disk file. 3780Plus automatically determines
whether or not the data should be translated from EBCDIC to ASCII. No user
intervention is required.
Screen
The Screen command displays non-transparent data to the screen.
Sleep (seconds)
The Sleep command pauses the specified number of seconds before proceeding
to the next command. This command is used to pause between commands where
required.
Counter
The Counter commands initialize, increment, decrement, or display counter
settings. 3780Plus supports built-in counters which may be
used to add the capability to loop or retry a command a specified number
of times. This allows a lot of flexibility with the script files.
System (command)
The System command allows execution of an operating system command or
program. With the System command, you can perform some other processing
and return to 3780Plus to continue or end the communications
session.
Table (filename)
The Table command displays or loads a previously created translation
table(s). 3780Plus automatically translates received data
to ASCII and transmitted data to EBCDIC where appropriate. In some cases
(foreign countries for example), you may wish to change the translations.
Text (filename)
The Text command transmits a text file to the remote computer in non-transparent
mode. 3780Plus automatically handles the ASCII to EBCDIC
character translation during the transmission.
Token (tokens)
The Token command sets or displays the value of user-defined variables
at any time. 3780Plus tokens may also be set prior to executing
3780Plus. The Token command, when used in conjunction with
the script files, offers a lot of flexibility in dynamically altering the
flow of commands in response to the communications scenario.
Voice
The Voice command disconnects (hangs-up) the phone line
and disables the modem from answering incoming phone calls.
