Send Options
The following options can be configured when defining a CICS file transfer
scheme. These parameters will then be used when sending files from the
PC to the host.
ASCII
If the PC file consists of character data only, specify ASCII. This will
cause the translation of all graphic and control characters from ASCII
to EBCDIC during the transfer so that it is usable on the host computer.
BINARY
If the PC file consists of binary data, specify BINARY.
CRLF
Following the convention for ASCII text files, <CR> <LF> pairs
are used to terminate records in the PC file, and a CTRL-Z (x'1A') marks
the end of file. CRLF is a default option.
NOCRLF
Do not use <CR> <LF> pairs to terminate records in the CICS
file.
Other Options
This text field provides the ability to add custom file transfer parameters.
For information on how parameters can be added here refer to the CICS
Send Parameters in the Technical Reference section.
