Xerox FS 3270 User Manual

The Xerox FS 3270  works using approximately 60 internal Setup
Functions (FSL Functions). When the protocol converter has been
installed and connected to a printer, you may have to consider the use of
these setup options.

FSL setup functions can be sent either from your IBM system or from a PC.

If you have decided to run the Xerox FS 3270  in PCL mode (see Chapter
1), the Xerox FS 3270  is ready to operate after you have completed the
installation procedure. The factory default setup will meet the demands of
most host systems and users, and special programming is therefore
normally not required.

However, special circumstances may require changes in the pro gramming
of the box. For full details on this please see the "Laser 3270
Programmer's Guide; D62078, subpart D62030. In the Pro grammer's
Guide you will find an extensive description of the FSL Functions with
notes, comments and examples.

If you have decided to run the Xerox FS 3270  in FSL mode (see Chapter
1), you have just selected an unprogrammed printer driver and you need
to program any further settings of the box using FSL functions. The "Laser
3270  Programmer's Guide"; Document No. D62078, subpart D62071
gives you full details on how you do this.
