Chapter 3 - Customizing Your Configuration Customizing 5250 EBCDIC to ASCII Translation The 5250 data stream translates all data from the host from 8-bit EBCDIC to 8-bit ASCII for processing in the computer. Before the data is sent back to the host, it is again translated from ASCII to EBCDIC. You can customize the operation of the 5250 data stream by changing the default EBCDIC to ASCII translation table. You can replace the default table with one that is combined with the HEX file that you download to the computer. You can use ASEBTBLD.exe to create the file. You must name it ASCEBD.tbl.

Customizing 5250 EBCDIC to ASCII Translation

The 5250 data stream translates all data from the host from 8-bit EBCDIC to 8-bit

ASCII for processing in the computer. Before the data is sent back to the host, it is

again translated from ASCII to EBCDIC.

You can customize the operation of the 5250 data stream by changing the default

EBCDIC to ASCII translation table. You can replace the default table with one that

is combined with the HEX file that you download to the computer. You can use

ASEBTBLD.exe to create the file. You must name it ASCEBD.tbl.

Creating the Custom EBCDIC_ASCII Translation Table

Type

asebtbld

to display this information:

ASEBTBLD ASCII-EBCDIC Translation Table Creation.

$Revision: 1.0 $

$Date: 03 Apr 1998 13:46:14 $

Usage: ASEBTBLD [<options>] <commands> <fname>

<options>:

-r<file>

Input file containing replacement table type,

0x00-0xff table index, 0x00-0xff value.

-v

Verbose * display processing steps.

<fname>

Output file name, extension ignored.

ASEBTBLD creates <fname>.TBL from the default ASCII and EBCDIC tables using

replacement values specified in -r<file>. Type the following command to create the

ASCEBD.tbl file, with the replacement values specified in changes.my:

asebtbld -rchanges.my ascebd

The replacement file is an ASCII text file formatted as follows:

----------top of replacement file----------

/* Any line beginning with ‘/*’ in column 1 is a comment.

/* A=ASCII=>EBCDIC

/* E=EBCDIC=>ASCII

/* ASCII

Index

ValueAnything after ‘Value’ is a comment

/* A

0x30

0xF0ASCII ‘0’ returns EBCDIC ‘0’

/* E

0xF0

0x30EBCDIC ‘0’ returns ASCII ‘0’

/* E

0xC9

0x3FUnknown EBCDIC 0xC9 returns ASCII ‘?’

/* Any number of blanks and tabs are allowed before, between

/* and after values. Blank lines are allowed.

----------bottom of replacement file----------

ASEBTBLD creates the default tables starting on the next page if there is no

replacement file, or if an empty replacement file is specified.

Note:

When you select the Central Europe (1250) or Western Europe (1252) code

page, you must modify the default translation table in order to customize the

displayed characters. For more information, see

“Displaying EBCDIC Non-

English Code Pages” on page 131.
