This National Standard of Canada is equivalent to International Standard ISO/IEC ISP 11187-4:1996. 1 Scope 1.1 General The concept of Profiles for OSI, and the structure of the International
Standardized Profiles that document them, are defined in ISO/IEC TR 10000-1.
Such Profiles are divided into a number of different classes and sub-classes.
Two of these classes contain sub-classes comprising functions of the Virtual
Terminal Basic Class Service and Protocol specified in the base standards ISo
9040 and ISO 9041. These are the Application Profiles (A-Profiles) and the
Interchange Format and Representation Profiles (F-Profiles). The relationship between A-Profiles and F-Profiles is described in 7.3.2 of
ISO/IEC TR 10000-1 and is as follows. Application Layer base standards require,
implicitly or explicitly, the structure of information carried or referenced by
them to be specified for each instance of communication. It is the purpose of
F-Profiles to specify such information structures. Particular functional
requirements may then be met by the combination of an A-Profile with one or
more F-Profiles. Establishment of a VT-association involves the selection by negotiation of a
particular Virtual Terminal Environment profile (VTE-profile), and of
particular values for any arguments of that VTE-profile. The VTE-profile
specification, and possibly also the values of certain VTE-profile arguments,
may in turn reference the definitions of VT control object types and assignment
types. These VTE-profiles, control object types and assignment types are thus
information structures that require explicit reference within the VT protocol.
Particular instances of these structures are fully defined within the base
standards, but the base standards also provide for further instances to be
defined by registration. Each registrered instance constitutes an F-Profile
within the framework of ISO/IEC TR 10000. The Virtual Terminal Basic Class Service and Protocol may be used to realise a
wide range of distinct functions. Particular functions may be realised through
the selection of appropriate VT functional units, F-Profiles and other
VTE-profile argument values. The specification of the selection required to
realise a particular function and to promote interoperability constitutes a
Virtual Terminal A-Profile within the framework of ISO/IEC TR 10000. The three International Registers of VT information structures and the
specifications of VT Application Profiles are each published as a separate
multi-part ISP as follows: - ISO/IEC ISP 11184 is the Register of VTE-profiles; - ISO/IEC ISP 11185 is the Register of control object type definitions; - ISO/IEC ISP 11186 is the Register of assignment-type definitions; - ISO/IEC ISP 11187 contains the specifications of VT Application
Profiles. This part os ISO/IEC ISP 11187 is applicable to environments in which a
terminal population requires access to application packages running on a
variety of computers. It may be used where the connection between the terminal
and the computer that hosts the application package is local, is made across a
Local or Wide Area Network, or is made across a concatenation of such networks. This part of ISO/IEC ISP 11187 contains the specification of the S-mode Paged
Application Profile. Virtual Terminal implementations that operate in
accordance with this A-profile provide powerful general-purpose terminal
capabilities which are suitable in particular for form-filling applications.
This A-profile specifies a mode of operation of, and a selection of options for
use with, the S-mode Paged VTE-profile FVT122. These are together designed to
provide versatility and to promote interoperability between Virtual Terminal
implementations which support that VTE-profile. This part of ISO/IEC ISP 11187 supports terminals, which allow to fill all
fields on the screen (locally) and then send all data to the host not on
character by character basis, but on the character stream basis. To send input
data from this kind of terminal it is necessary to press one of special keys
provided on the terminal. This part of ISO/IEC ISP 11187
