Re: ACOM

[wawrzaszek@xxxxxxxxxxx (Wawrzaszek)]

We do where possible include the PRC5311 call.  This is not possible with
the optical retrieval system because we do not have the programming code
for this.  If we run a front end CL that calls the RDARS it would work for
1 printout, as the ACOM gets the last spool file and sends that through to
get the overlays.  However a user could print any number of reports while
in RDARS and only the last one would be grabbed.  That is why we need to
have a monitor to grab all reports in the output queue, or even have
PRC5311 run until it picks up all the reports in the outq that "match" what
we are looking for.  I thought the auto print would do this since you can
specify spooled file and user but these are not used to select the report
or not to the extent that it will bypass any that do not match. It will
bomb out if they do not match.
