On the CA Automation Point Machine

For the TPF REXX program to work with CA Automation Point, you must create a TPF session using Configuration Manager.

To do create a TPF

1. From Configuration Manager, choose Expert Interface, Automation, Session Definition Sets.
2. In the Session Definition Sets dialog, add a new session.
3. Choose a console type of TPF3270 in the session definition
4. Choose the appropriate terminal.
5. Customize your session settings in the 3270 Session Settings dialog.
6. Either copy sample rules for a TPF session into your active rules file (default is AXCRULES.RUL), or add custom rules to the active rules file using the rules in axcrules.rul as a guide.

When CA Automation Point starts up, the TPFCON.REX application controls a TPF session on the desktop.
