Step Mode (S)

In Step Mode of the Restore, the input from the LOG file is sent to the communication partner only after confirmation from the user. The suggested input can be modified, so that the actual dialog may differ from the captured dialog.

RES [file | lib ( [t/] element) | element | C] , S [, d]

S Step Mode. This parameter causes the Restore process to run in Step Mode. In Step Mode, a single entry is read from the file and displayed on the screen. This entry can still be amended by the user, and then transmitted with DUE1.

d Time Delay Factor.

Entering a time delay in the Step Mode version of the Resore causes Line Mode output messages to be overwritten by the next input message (which might, for example, be in Format Mode) only after a predefined delay.

n: 0  - 100 Time delay in seconds.

n: 100 - 999 Time delay in milliseconds.

K and F Keys in Step Mode:

K1 Pressing the K1 key will end the Restore process prematurely.

F2 Sending the modified or unmodified input with the F2 key will result in the current input being offered again at the next dialog step i.e. the next record is not read from the LOG file. In this manner, additional steps that were not in the LOG file can be entered in the dialog.

F3 Sending the modified or unmodified input with the F3 key causes the Restore process to switch to Batch Mode.
