Commands and Syntax › FUNCTION

FUNCTION

FUNCTION permits you to invoke a control key value from a terminal that doesn't have control keys.

Syntax:

►►─┬─┬─ FUNction ─┬─┬─ control-key-value ─────────────────────────────────────►◄
   │ └─ PF ───────┘ │
   └─ PA ───────────┘

Parameters:

control-key-value

Specifies the control key that is invoked. Valid values are [PA1], [PA2], and 1 through 99 (corresponding to PF keys 1 through 99).

Note: When a control key that is not currently associated with a line command is invoked, CA OLQ responds as if the [Enter] key was pressed.

Example:

In the following example, the function associated with the PF10 key is invoked from the command line:

function 10
