Options 8 and 9 work differently with non-3270 devices:
CA Verify for VTAM does not display the current screen, so you should use PF2 to rotate to the current screen to examine it before invoking option 8 or 9.
Non-3270 data streams often contain hexadecimal control information that varies, depending on the devices and controller programs used. You must type this information with the character data. CA Verify for VTAM will expect:
X'hex data',C'character data',X'hex data' . . .
CA Verify for VTAM will reject data that does not conform to this format and ask for the input again. To determine the format of non-3270 data at your installation, you can request a batch print of a data stream using the Hex option or you can browse it in hex format.
