Chapter 1 - About 3270 and 5250 Programming When the SBA is not specified in the WTD command, the data starts at row 1, column 1. This is where the WTD command initialized it. Format: The Set Buffer Address order is formatted as follows: Set Buffer Address Hex 11 Row Address Hex 01 Column Address Hex 01 Row and column addresses begin with 1. However, the computer accepts column address hex 00 and translates it to column 1. Start of Field Description: The Start of Field (SF) order defines input and output fields. If an input field is being defined, it also resets any pending AID byte and locks the keyboard. Note: Although this order can be used for output fields, it is not recommended because it degrades performance. Use the Set Buffer Address order instead. Format: The Start of Field order is formatted as follows: Start of Field Hex 1D Attribute Hex 01 Length Hex 0012 To include format information in the Start of Field order, use this format: Start of Field Hex 1D [Format] Hex 4000 Attribute Hex 01 Length Hex 0012 To include format and control information in the Start of Field order, use this format: Start of Field Hex 1D [Format] Hex 4000 [Control] Hex 8012 Attribute Hex 01 Length Hex 0012 You can include the control word only after you have provided a format word. You can also insert several control words between the format and attribute portions of the SF order, but these control words are not required.
