Multi-Screen Control

It is not necessary to return to the IOA Primary Option menu to move from
one online facility to another.

To speed up transfer of control between screens of different facilities and to
enable you to manage several online facilities at the same time, transfer
control commands can be specified. Transfer commands take you directly
from your current screen to the requested screen. Transfer commands can be
used to reach any screen that can be accessed by the IOA Primary Option
menu at your site.

Each transfer control command consists of an equal sign immediately
followed by the IOA Primary Option menu, which represents the target
screen of the transfer. For example, from any screen, specify:


IOA Transfer Control Commands
Command Description

=5 to access the IOA Log screen.
=4 to access the IOA Conditions/Resources screen.
=1 to access the IOA Primary Option menu.
