Software Product Description
PRODUCT NAME: WPS-S/200, Version 4.3
DESCRIPTION:
WPS-8/200 is a multiuser text processing software system for office and business use that is packaged with
all RL01-based 200 series word processing systems. A
menu driven editor creates and updates documents
stored on RL01 disks and single density floppy
diskettes. Up to 200 documents of variable length, or
up to total of 125 pages (at approxi mately 2000 characters per page) can be stored on a diskette with as much
as 2000 pages of on-line storage for RL01 document
disks. Editing capabilities make it possible to easily
correct text without completely retyping a new draft.
Draft or final documents can be queued to a letter
quality or draft printer. Printing and editing can be
done simultaneously.

Features
• OX Document Transmission Mode
The OX feature allows all special format control
information (underlining, bolding, ruler settings,
print settings, etc.) to be sent with the document.
The document received at the remote system contains all information found in the original. DX uses a
special error detecting protocol to ensure accurate
document transmission.

SPO 5.78.1

WPS-8/200, Version 4.3

-2Using OX, documents created under WPS-8 can be
sent to:
• Another DIGITAL word processing system running WPS-8, Version 3.0 or later
• An unattended DIGITAL word processing system (using the corresponding WPS-8 communications option AX).
• Any of several DIGITAL operating systems that
have the corresponding OX layered application
product. Files can be prepared, edited, printed
and verified offline on the word processor and
then sent to the host for processing.
• AX Automatic Transmission Mode
Used tn conjunction with OX, the AX feature provides the same document transmission capabilities
as the OX feature and in addition, allows for one of
the WPS-8 systems in the communication link to be
placed in the automatic mode. This makes it possible for only one person to operate the communication link between the two systems.
• CX Character Transmission Mode
The CX feature allows character transmission in a
serial ASCII asynchronous mode. Special word
processing control characters are not transmitted.
CX provides for transmission of documents to
another computer system in an interactive manner,
and to a number of other devices that transmit and
receive ASCII characters.
Features with the CX package include:
• Flexible control of communications characteristics for:
Embedded control characters
Optional use of XON/XOFF protocol
Answerback support
TWX emulation
• Flexible control of keyboard, printer, and
storage:
Input from keyboard, document, or remote host
Output to screen, printer, document, or remote
host
Multiple combinations possible
