AS/400 Prompt AS/400 Parameter 4680 Line Parameter
Connection type CNN 4680 CONNECTION TYPE parameter value must be coordinated with
the values specified for the AS/400 CNN and SWTCNN parameters on
the CRTLINSDLC command and with the SWITCHED and INLCNN
parameters on the CRTCTLRTL command.
v If CNN(*NONSWTPP) and SWITCHED(*NO) are specified for the
AS/400 system, specify CONNECTION TYPE=1forthe4680.
v If CNN(*MP) and SWITCHED(*NO) are specified for the AS/400
system, specify CONNECTION TYPE=2forthe4680.
v If CNN(*SWTPP), SWITCHED(*YES), INLCNN(*DIAL), and either
SWTCNN(*DIAL) or SWTCNN(*BOTH) are specified for the AS/400
system, specify CONNECTION TYPE=3forthe4680.
v If CNN(*SWTPP), SWITCHED(*YES), INLCNN(*DIAL), and either
SWTCNN(*DIAL) or SWTCNN(*BOTH) are specified for the AS/400
system, specify CONNECTION TYPE=4forthe4680. This
configuration allows the 4680 to manually answer calls from the
AS/400 system or to manually call the AS/400 system.
v If CNN(*SWTPP), SWITCHED(*YES), INLCNN(*ANS), and either
SWTCNN(*ANS) or SWTCNN(*BOTH) are specified for the AS/400
system, specify CONNECTION TYPE=4forthe4680. This
configuration requires the 4680 to manually call the AS/400 system.
Initial connection INLCNN See description for the CNN (Connection type) parameter.
Modem data rate

MODEMRATE 4680 DATA RATE parameter must match the MODEMRATE parameter
specified on the AS/400 CRTLINSDLC command.
NRZI data encoding NRZI 4680 NRZI MODE parameter must match the NRZI parameter specified
on the AS/400 CRTLINSDLC command.
Station address STNADR 4680 STATION ADDRESS parameter must match the STNADR
parameter specified on the AS/400 CRTCTLRTL command.

Matching AS/400 parameters for 4680/4690 LINK parameter
You must coordinate parameters between the AS/400 and the 4680 store controller. The following tables
lists the parameter values. The 4680 controller requires configuration of the SDLC/SNA LINK parameter.
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.
For more information about configuring the 4680 controller, see the IBM 4680 Store System: Programming
Guide.
To configure the AS/400 to a 4680/4690 controller:
v See “Examples: Connecting AS/400 to a 4690 retail controller” on page 75 for an example of an AS/400
connecting to a 4690 retail controller.
v Use the following table to connect an AS/400 to a 4680/4690 retail controller.
AS/400 Prompt AS/400 Parameter 4680 Link Parameter
Exchange identifier EXCHID For switched lines only, the 4680 EXCHANGE ID parameter must match
the EXCHID parameter specified on the AS/400 CRTCTLRTL command.
