Using MPCLII Conventions
Here are some guidelines to follow when using MPCLII.
MPCLII Punctuation
Use the following symbols when creating MPCLII packets:
{ start of header
} end of header
p field separator
, parameter separator
"ABC" Quotation marks enclose character strings.
Empty quotes ("") identify null strings or
unused fields.
‘comment‘ Grave accents enclose comments. Any data
enclosed in grave accents is ignored. Do not
embed comments within a quoted string.
Grave accents are also used to reject
mainframe data.
These MPCL characters are the default. See "Defining the
Control Characters Packet" to change these characters.

◆
Begin each packet with a start of header ({).
