ATi
Your terminal is available for use by transactions that are automatically initiated from within CICS or, if the terminal is an ISC session, by transactions that are using this session as an alternate facility to communicate with another system.
AUtopageable
Pages after the first in a series are written to the terminal automatically. This option should never be used with a display device.
NOAti
Your terminal is not available for use by transactions that are automatically initiated from within CICS or, if the terminal is an ISC session, by transactions that are using this session as an alternate facility to communicate with another system.
NOTti
This terminal cannot be used by transactions that are initiated from this terminal. Setting NOTTI is valid only for sequential devices.
NOUCTRAN
The uppercase translation status of your terminal is set to OFF for the current session.
PAgeable
Pages after the first in a series are written to the terminal on request from the operator.
TRANIDONLY
The uppercase translation status of your terminal is set to translate only transaction identifiers entered at the terminal for the current session.
TTi
This terminal can be used by transactions.
UCTRAN
The uppercase translation status of your terminal is set to ON for the current session.

Typing ? at the beginning of the first line gives a syntax prompt. Resetting the values takes effect immediately.

If you do not want to view the current status of your terminal (as displayed in the top half of the CEOT screen), you can change the paging status and the ATI status by using the CEOT syntax displayed in the bottom half of the screen. So, for example, if you simply want to make your terminal PAGEABLE, type CEOT PAGEABLE on the command line of your display and press the Enter key.

Notes:
  1. You can use CEOT with the routing transaction (CRTE).
    • A user can inquire only about his or her own terminal, and cannot change any of the attributes.
    • The attributes returned are those of the remote terminal TCTTE in the application-owning region(AOR).
    • You must cancel the CRTE transaction by typing CANCEL on the command line.
  2. Using CEOT in the TOR:
    • When a terminal is defined as unshippable, and CEOT is used to change the status of the terminal, the changes are not reflected in a remote terminal built in an AOR as a result of a transaction routing request. The status of the remote terminal is determined by the remote definition of the terminal in the AOR.
    • Even when a terminal is defined as shippable, a status change made in the TOR, using CEOT, is not reflected in an existing remote terminal definition in the AOR. A remote terminal in the AOR is created from a shippable definition the first time it is required in the AOR for running a program. The status of the remote terminal returned is its current status in the TOR. Any later updates are not passed on to the remote terminal.
  3. If you make an invalid request, CICS lists the keyword options and waits for a valid keyword entry.
