6287 ULTRA Users ManualPage 5-4
9 PA Key Usage
If set to (A) Normal, and if the ULTRA is in SCS mode, the PA1 and PA2
keys on the ULTRA will function as the PA keys on a 3287 printer. If set to
(B), PA1 will send PFS 7 to the printer, and PA2 will send PFS 8 to the
printer. The default value is (A) Normal. Refer to Section 9
Programmable Function Strings for more information on PFSs.
10 Output in ASCII or EBCDIC
Some printer types (such as Xerox 4045s) can accept EBCDIC data. This
option determines whether the ULTRA outputs data in the (A) ASCII or
(B)EBCDIC character set. A third option, (C), will have the ULTRA send
coax host data to the printer in EBCDIC and alternate host data in ASCII.
The default value is (A).
Note: Option C is useful only for users with an alternate host and a Xerox
printer capable of changing on line from XES mode to HP PCL emulation.
These printers include the models 4030, 4045-160, 4187, 4213 and 4235. If
the user selects option C, the printer must be configured by the user to start
in XES mode using the EBCDIC character set. Additionally, PFS B Coax
Host PFS must be programmed with the =MCK= command to change to
XES mode, and PFS C Alternate Host PFS must be programmed with the
=MCK= command to change to the HP PCL emulation. Refer to the Xerox
printer programmer reference for detailed information on changing
emulations on line. Refer to Section 6 Programmable Function Strings
for information about PFSs.
11 APL Output
In conjunction with Option #10 and Option #20, this option determines
whether or not APL output is allowed. If this option is set to Yes, APL
output will be allowed. The default value is No.
Note: Option #10 must be set to (A), because only ASCII output is
supported for APL. Additionally, Option #20 must set to (B) 2K with EAB
or (D) 4K with EAB. Additional information regarding APL support can be
found in Section 7 Translate Tables and Section 13 Coax Host
Considerations.
