Using the TRANsfer command

Use the TRANsfer command to switch from products in windows mode to products in full-screen mode and back again.

The TRANsfer command allows you to quickly access data from different products that operate in different interfaces. With this command, you can easily change the data view from a product in windows mode to a product that operates in full-screen mode or vice versa.

Before you begin

To use this command, you will need to know the system that you want to access and the desired product.

To switch from windows mode to full-screen mode

Enter TRANsfer target product , replacing the variables as follows:

Exampe

To access the System Status application for MainView AutoOPERATOR for z/OS on system A, enter this command:

TRAN SYSA MAO;STATUS

Note

In this command, the semicolon (;) is the default command delimiter. If you are connecting to a CAS in windows mode for the first time, you might need to specify two command delimiters in a row (;;). The CAS connection message can interrupt ISPF command processing and cause the view command that follows the delimiter to be lost. If the transfer from full-screen mode to windows mode is not successful with one command delimiter, reissue the TRANsfer command with two delimiters.
