Modifying Location Attributes
Example
To display the current attributes of the location named #BIRD6.DEFAULT, enter:
) LOC #BIRD6.DEFAULT, STATUS DETAIL
A listing such as this is displayed on your home terminal:
This listing shows that the BROADCAST attribute is off, that this location is connected
to the device \CAT.$C, and that no FONT attribute has been configured for this
location.
Modifying Location Attributes
To modify location attributes by breaking the connection between a location and a
device, enter:
) LOC [ #group.] dest, DEV
If you specify only the destination, the command refers to every group that has that
destination in it.
Example
To modify location attributes by breaking the connection between the location #BIRD6
and any devices connected to that location, enter:
) LOC #BIRD6, DEV
LOCATION: #BIRD6.DEFAULT
BROADCAST: OFF

Description and Default Value
BROADCAST [ ON | OFF ]
BROADCAST or BROADCAST ON causes a job routed
to #
group
to be printed on all devices connected to
#
group
. BROADCAST OFF, the default value, causes
jobs routed to #
group
to be printed on the one device
connected to the group that can print the job the fastest.
DEV $
device
Specifies which device the location is connected to. There
is no default; you must connect a location to a device to
direct the jobs sent to the location to an output device.
FONT
font-name
Specifies which font job should be downloaded to the
location before any jobs are sent to it. This attribute causes
jobs routed to a particular location to be printed with the
character set, compressed print mode, or whatever other
printing attributes have been programmatically set in the
font-name
file. See the Spooler Utilities Reference
Manual for details and instructions.
