Deactivating a Stored Form
A stored form cannot be deleted from the terminal via a host command, instead it is deactivated .
The host uses Expanded Function K to send a form with the same identifier to overwrite the
obsolete form. This new form message can include text indicating that the form is not an active
form or that no form is available.
For example, the following message deactivates a stored form:
Y is the control character that allows you to
send an expanded function.
K is the N/EF character that stores Form A
in the terminal.
AB] is the form message header
This text lets the operator know that the
form is deactivated.
<02S Y K AB] No form available C
