the work station back to step 4 so as to start things over again.
Batch Terms:
Function Management Header 1 (FMH-1) is used to select a destination within an LU. When sent by the
A/S-4 it indicates to the host which device (card reader or console) is sending data to the host, used in
the same way when host sends FMH-1 to the A/S-4.
Function Management Header 2 (FMH-2) specifies the data management activities to be performed at
the destination selected with the FMH-1. Typical data management activities are adding and replacing
records, numbers of copies to print and date data created.
