<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 1</h4><p>The system sometimes sends error messages
|
||
|
|
that require you to respond or select from a group of options. Based on the
|
||
|
|
possible choices given (always in parentheses), this is generally a one-character
|
||
|
|
response.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">For example, notice the five possible choices for this message: <pre> Verify alignment on device PRT01. (I C G N R)</pre>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<p>Messages of this kind with possible choices most often appear on the
|
||
|
|
system operator message queue. However, under certain circumstances, they
|
||
|
|
can also appear on your own message queue.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You aren't expected to know
|
||
|
|
or remember the meanings of the numbers or letters in any reply. The Additional
|
||
|
|
Message Information display provides information about each choice. In addition,
|
||
|
|
this display also provides a reply line on which you can type your reply (if
|
||
|
|
a reply is needed).</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Example 2</h4><p>Suppose that you want to print a finished
|
||
|
|
report. You send it to the printer, but it doesn't print. You check your message
|
||
|
|
queue and find the following message:</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre> End of forms on printer PRT01. (C H I PAGE 1-99999)</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>The
|
||
|
|
computer wants you to reply, using one of the four choices that are shown
|
||
|
|
(C H I PAGE 1-99999).</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">To get to the Additional Message
|
||
|
|
Information display from the Work with Messages display (the basic assistance
|
||
|
|
level), follow these steps: <ol><li>Position the cursor on the option line in front of the message you want
|
||
|
|
to respond to.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Select <span class="uicontrol">option 5</span> (Display details and reply).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>When the Additional Message Information display appears, page down through
|
||
|
|
the information to find the description of each reply value.</li>
