Printing History
New editions are complete revisions of the manual. Update packages,
which are issued between editions, contain additional and replacement
pages to be merged into the manual by the customer. The dates on the
title page change only when a new edition or a new update is published.
No information is incorporated into a reprinting unless it appears as a
prior update; the edition does not change when an update is incorporated.
Note that many product updates and fixes do not require manual changes
and, conversely, manual corrections may be done without accompanying
product changes. Therefore, do not expect a one-to-one correspondence
between product updates and manual updates.

Documentation Map
The following documentation map shows the structure of the RJE/XL
documentation set and related manauls. The manauls are intended to be
used together.
Preface
This manual describes the Hewlett-Packard Remote Job Entry Subsystem,
RJE. RJE emulates the IBM 2780 Data Transmission Terminal and the IBM
3780 Data Communication Terminal, making it possible for you to exchange
data between your HP 3000 Computer and a variety of remote processors.
The communication occurs over the public telephone switched network or
over private leased lines.
Audience
This manual assumes that you have a working knowledge of MPE XL and that
you have some familiarity with either the IBM 2780 or the IBM 3780.
Knowledge of the IBM Binary Synchronous Communications (BSC) line
protocol conventions would be useful but is not required.
Organization
This manual is arranged as follows:
Chapter 1, Introduction to RJE/XL, introduces RJE/XL and discusses the
contents of the manual, product features, capabilities and required
system environment.
Chapter 2, RJE/XL BSC Link Installation Guidelines, describes the RJE/XL
installation procedures.
Chapter 3, Configuring Host Systems to Include RJE/XL, describes the
steps necessary to configure the host for running RJE/XL.
Chapter 4, Configuring MPE/XL Systems to Include RJE/XL, describes the
steps necessary to configure MPE XL for running RJE/XL.
Chapter 5, Setting Up RJE/XL for Programmatic Mode, describes how to set
up RJE/XL for programmatic mode.
Chapter 6, Troubleshooting RJE/XL, describes tools, utilities, and
procedures to be used in troubleshooting RJE/XL and the BSC link.
Chapter 7, Trace Formatter, discusses the trace listing format.
Appendix A, Interpreting Messages, lists and discusses the error
messages.
Appendix B, System Requirement Details, lists the details of hardware and
software requirements for RJE/XL subsystem operation.
Appendix C, IBM 2780 and IBM 3780, describes the characteristics of the
IBM 2780/3780 terminals and their RJE emulators.
Appendix D, RJE/V versus RJE/XL, describes the differences between RJE/V
and RJE/XL.

Syntax Conventions
nonitalics Words in syntax statements which are not in italics must
be entered exactly as shown. Punctuation characters
other than brackets, braces, and ellipses must also be
entered exactly as shown. For example:
EXIT;
italics Words in syntax statements that are in italics denote a
parameter that must be replaced by a user-supplied
variable. For example:
CLOSE filename
[ ] An element inside brackets in a syntax statement is
optional. Several elements stacked inside brackets
indicates the user may select any one or none of these
elements. For example:
[A]
[B] User may select A or B or C or none.
[C]
{ } When several elements are stacked within braces in a
syntax statement, the user must select one of those
elements. For example:
{A}
{B} User must select A or B or C.
{C}
... A horizontal ellipsis in a syntax statement indicates
that a previous element may be repeated. For example:
[,itemname]...;
In addition, vertical and horizontal ellipses may be
used in examples to indicate that portions of the
example have been omitted.
Å When necessary for clarity, the symbol Å may be used in
a syntax statement to indicate a required blank or an
exact number of blanks. For example:
SET[modifier] Å (variable)
underlining Brackets, braces, or ellipses appearing in syntax or
format statements which must be entered as shown will be
underlined. For example:
LET var[[subscript]] = value
Output and input/output parameters are underlined. A
notation in the description of each parameter
distinguishes input/output from output parameters. For
example:
CREATE (parm1,parm2,flags,error)
[Key Cap] A string in bold font enclosed by brackets may be used
to indicate a key on the terminal's keyboard. For
example, [ENTER] indicates the carriage return key.
[CTRL]-char Control characters are indicated by [CTRL] followed by
the character. For example, [CTRL]-Y means the user
presses the control key and the Y key simultaneously.
