OCI Parameters

Chapter 38

38-7

Function

Before changing this parameter make sure you have read and understand

the watchlist concepts outlined on page 38-5.

Use this parameter to specify the size (in bytes) of the foreground

watchlists for all connected OCI stations. Each OCI station that connects

to the 9/Series creates its own background and foreground watchlists. All

foreground watchlists created are the same size as specified with this

parameter. The foreground watchlist is typically very small as most

applications do not use foreground watchlist items. Refer to your 9/Series

OCI API developers guide for a listing of the data items that are

foreground and their data types.

Calculating the necessary foreground watchlist size is the same calculation

as a background watchlist (see page 38-6)
