and Value Notes
2 and 3 00 SWITCHED(*YES)
CNN(*SWTPP)
Bit 2: Specify 1 if using nonswitched
communications, or 0 if using switched
communications. If switched, the SENDID parameter
must also be specified.
Bit 3: Specify 1 if using a multipoint communications
protocol, or 0 if not. 01 is not a valid combination for
these bits.

None (See Notes) Direct attachment. This bit must be set to 0 for
communications with the AS/400 system. There is no
equivalent parameter for the AS/400 system.
1 None

DUPLEX(*HALF) Data carrier setting.
1 DUPLEX(*FULL)
7 0 None Answer tone generation. There is no equivalent
parameter for the AS/400 system. Specify 0 to
indicate that the modem generates the answer tone,
or 1 to indicate that the controller generates the
answer tone.

Matching AS/400 parameters for 3684 retail controllers
You must coordinate parameters with the AS/400 system and the 3684 retail controller. The following table
lists those parameters.
AS/400 parameters are listed in alphabetical order; the commands on which the parameters are specified
are included in the rightmost column of the table.
To configure the AS/400 to a 3684 controller, use the following table.

CNN QFSFGLNK LINECON
Value specified for the AS/400 CNN parameter on the
CRTLINSDLC command must match the values specified for bits
2 and 3 of the 3684 LINECON parameter.
Duplex DUPLEX QFSFGLNK LINECON
Value specified for the AS/400 DUPLEX parameter on the
CRTLINSDLC command must match the value specified for bit 6
of the 3684 LINECON parameter.
