Host Wait For ReadyToSend

This Host Interface tool pauses a handler until the mainframe sends a Ready To Send (RTS) signal to the Host Server. You can also specify that it wait for more than one RTS signal.

Inputs

Host Connection

The name of the connection created by the Host Connect tool.

Number of occurrences of ReadyToSend

The number of RTS signals to wait for before taking the Successful exit path.

Timeout (per RTS occurrence)

The number of milliseconds to wait before taking the Timeout exit path.

Exit Paths

Success

This step takes the Success exit path if it receives the correct occurrence of the RTS signal.

Failure

This step takes the Failure exit path if the host connection is invalid, or becomes invalid during the operation. This occurs if the mainframe disconnects for some reason.

Timeout

This step takes the Timeout exit path if an RTS signal is not received before the Timeout value elapses.
