System Parameters |
|
System parameters can be used at start-up to define system operations under PxPlus, including system settings, default operating modes, and environmental emulation modes. Each parameter consists of a two-character code enclosed in single quotes. Some are Boolean switches (0 or negative sign to indicate Off, 1 or "no sign" to indicate On), and some require specific values in order to be set.
System parameters are usually set once at the beginning of an application; e.g. in a lead program following the START_UP procedure. They can also be specified directly on the PxPlus Command line; in which case, they do not require single quotes and must be prefixed with a dash or slash. See Launching PxPlus.
Use the SET_PARAM directive to set/reset parameters within your PxPlus applications. The *UCP utility can also be used to display and change parameters in the system.
Use the PRM system variable to return a string of all current system parameters.
Use the PRM( ) function to return the settings for specific parameters.
