 3 Syntax as a command:  hhoc tty_channel {control_arguments}
 4    {attach_arguments}
 5 
 6 
 7 Function:  is used to simulate the operation of the operator's console
 8 of a HASP workstation.  The operator's console is used to identify a
 9 workstation to a remote system, to issue commands governing the
10 operation of the workstation, and to receive status information from
11 the remote system.
12 
13 
14 Arguments:
15 tty_channel
16    is the name of the terminal channel to be attached as the operator's
17    console.  This channel must be configured as the console sub-channel
18    of a HASP multiplexer channel (eg:  a.h014.op).  See the Multics
19    Communications Administrator's Manual, Order No.  CC75, for a
20    further description of the HASP multiplexer.
21 
22 
23 Control arguments:
24 -signon STR
25    specifies that the remote host requires a SIGNON record to be
26    transmitted before data transmission may occur.  STR is the text of
27    the control record; it may be up to 80 characters in length.  Before
28    transmission it is translated to uppercase and the remote system's
29    character is set.
30 -no_signon
31    specifies that the remote host does not require a SIGNON record.
32    (Default)
33 
34 
35 attach_arguments
36    are options acceptable to the hasp_host_ I/O module.  This command
37    supplies the -comm, -tty, and -device options automatically; these
38    options need not be given on the command line.  (See the Multics
39    Subroutines and I/O Modules manual, Order No.  AG93 for a
40    description of the hasp_host_ I/O module.)
41 
42 
43 Notes:  If the remote system requires a SIGNON, the -signon option
44 should be supplied on the command line specifying the exact SIGNON
45 record to be transmitted.

48 List of hasp_host_operators_console requests:  The following requests
49 are recognized by hasp_host_operators_console when given at the
50 beginning of a line of terminal input:

56  .
57    prints a message of the form:
58 
59          hasp_host_operators_console N.N; connected to channel NAME.
60 
61    where N.N is the current version of this program and NAME identifies
62    the channel connected as a console to the remote system.
63  quit
64    causes the command to hangup the operator's console channel and
65    return to Multics command level.
