Hex Format

Hex format segments the data stream as Field format does. A new segment appears for each order for 3270 data streams. Non-3270 data streams are displayed in 40-byte increments.

Three rows are used to display each segment:

• Row 1 contains the character representation
• Rows 2 and 3 contain the hexadecimal representation

The Hex format version of the previous screen appears next.

This format provides the offset and length of each segment. Because this example is an output screen, the first byte of the first segment is the WCC. For an input screen, the first three bytes of the first segment would be the AID (one byte) and the cursor position (two byte binary offset relative to zero).
