1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
THE OBJECT CONCEPT
Liaison is a family of program objects that are combined to allow access to the
SITA Airline Application Services (AAS) division mainframe applications from PCs.
The user interface can be either through various high-level Graphical User
Interfaces (GUI) or through expert (native) mode terminal emulation.
Communications objects for TCP/IP, X.25, and X.28 are available, as is the
PC/PCM printer control object. An object exists for UTS emulation to the Atlanta
IS hosts, and an object for 3270E emulation to the London IS hosts is new with
version 5.1. These different objects flexibly combine in the client PC to create a
product tailored to the specific needs of the user.
Installing and managing the client workstation is also made easier using objects.
A coded algorithm (Registration Key) is entered during the installation process,
designating which objects are to be included, as indicated in the contract. The
installer only needs to insert a few simple communication values to complete the
process. The user now decides which objects are to be activated, simply by
pointing to and clicking on an icon.
ORIGIN/PROGRESSION OF LIAISON
This family of products was originally developed in the 16-bit environment, able
to run in the Windows 3.X operating system. However, as more PCs converted
to or were purchased with Win95/WinNT, incompatibilities were increasingly
experienced since these newer workstations operate under 32-bit architecture.
The old 16 bit applications will not run under Win98. This situation presented a
challenge to convert the previous family of products to the 32-bit environment.
Other challenges also arouse in the area of expanding emulation and
communications environments. This challenge has been met with the complete
conversion to 32-bit architecture, the addition of TCP/IP and X.25
communications objects, addition of the TN3270E terminal emulation object, and
the addition/enhancement of GUI objects.

COMS: TELCON/PID/(PID#).
Once the PID configurations have been adjusted, it is advisable to review each
PID and verify whether or not it is configured as PC/PCM.This can be done by
the command PDQ:D/(pid #), i.e. PDQ:D/12345. Look at the Device Type field.
PPCM indicates it is a PC/PCM PID. A sample PDQ:D display follows.

ZZADDR FILE
For PC/PCM PIDs, the ZZADDR records must be designated as "MSG" for
printer traffic, and "CRT" for on-screen traffic. Note the MSG or CRT designation
will not show in a UMDF display when initiated from a non-PC/PCM PID. The
configuration on the host must match the configuration in PC/PCM.
For example:
1. If the host ZZADDR record shows CRT (>UMDF/ZZADDR/xxx or ZZM:V/xxx),
PC/PCM must have Messages to CRT checked. Message to CRT is the
default setting in Liaison PCPCM Configuration Wizard.
2. If the host ZZADDR record shows MSG (>UMDF/ZZADDR/xxx or ZZM:V/xxx),
PC/PCM must have Message Printer checked, and the message printer
must be properly configured.
Failure to properly configure in this area will result in a message PID suspension
avoided each time a ZZ message is received.
Note whether a ZZ address is configured for the CRT, the printer, or there is no
ZZ address configured. It is recommended that you always check the
MESSAGES to CRT option.

AN EXAMPLE
If you had 5 workstations in an area sharing one ticket printer and one message printer,
the workstation with the ticket printer and message printer attached would have a
PC/PCM PID. The other workstation PIDs would be configured as standard CRT PIDs.
The CONLNK ODVN and TKTP fields on the 4 workstations without printers would point
to the PC/PCM PID number. The CONLNK of the workstation controlling the printers
would have the ODVN and TKTP fields pointing to in itself.
Liaison would only have PC/PCM configured on the workstation controlling the printers.
PC/PCM would have at least two (2) boxes checked and configured, Message Printer
and Ticket Printer. Messages to CRT could also be checked.
An alternate to this example would be to configure all 5 PIDS as PCPCM PIDS. The four
PCs without a printer attached would select only Messages to CRT in the PC/PCM
configuration wizard.

If the connection to the host is lost, Liaison will try to automatically reconnect.
This value is the number of seconds to wait before attempting the reconnection.
Some LANs are configured such that if the connection goes down, an alternate
route will automatically be put into place. This usually takes effect after a set
period. Therefore, if the LAN automatically reconnects after 20 seconds, a
value of 20-30 should be entered in this field
Select either Dynamic or Specific (Static). For the latter, you must supply the
PID Type
PID number in the space provided. Enter only the PID number, no P or
anything. (For Infoconnect users, a P had to be specified before the number;
this is not required in Liaison). Remember that Static PIDs must be properly
configured for your airline, and require special configuration to support
PC/PCM. If you chose Enable Automatic Sign In Step 2 of the Liaison
Configuration Wizard, the PID specified here must be able to use the specified
sign-in

All manufacturers that have one or more approved printers for the device
type will be listed in this box. Note for a Message Printer, any Standard
Parallel printer on the Windows Hardware Compatability List SHOULD
work. Check the Web Site http://www.microsoft.com/hcl/default.asp to
ensure the printer is compatible with your Microsoft Operating System.
Printers not on the HCL can not be expected to work. Printers not
compatible with NT can act very strange. For instance, the HP 720C is
listed as not compatible on the HCL. At one site, local prints appeared to
work well, but system prints would appear on the Windows printer queue,
then just disappear.
A setting on some printers (HP printers in particular) which has been
know to cause problems is the spool settings Raw / EMF setting. Raw
should be selected. EMF can cause system prints to misbehave; for
example to print every other line.
For each approved manufacturer, all approved devices will be listed in

airline. To add a logo, do the following:
Browse to the location where the logos are stored. Highlight the logo
you want to add and click Open.
Enter the logo ID. The logo ID should correspond to the Pectab
location.These values should be given to the installer by SITA Atlanta.

4. Operation
4.1 Invoking the Program
The easiest way to start Liaison is from the desktop shortcut. Simply double-click on the
icon and the Liaison "splash-screen" is activated. This is a multi-media introduction,
showing a globe surrounded by an expanding frame. Concurrently, a crescendo of
string music plays in the background. This takes approximately 7-10 seconds, at which
time the Liaison Commander appears. Liaison is now ready to start the sessions of
choice.
The splash screen can be deactivated/reactivated by right clicking on the Settings
button on the Liaison Commander, then select "Configuration Toolbar".
Once the "Configure Toolbar" is selected, the following screen is displayed. The 'Show
opening movie' can then be set or unset as desired.

51
The Export Registry selection allows you to quickly export the Liaison Settings from the
Windows Registry and save them to a file. This may be required by Liaison Technical
Support in order to assist in debugging a reported error. Simply enter a filename and
click ok. The resulting Registry file will be written to the installation directory. Tf\the
Liaison settings are requested by Liaison Support follow this procedure and E-Mail the
Registry file in a ZIP file attachment to Liaison.Support@SITA.AERO
The ABOUT option from the settings menu displays not only the Liaison Version in
operation, but pointers to the Registration modification tool and a pointer to the Windows
system information folder. Note that the Liaison Workstation ID is displayed as well.
Click on the Registration Button and the Liaison registration ID may be modified. You
may also input a unique Workstation ID instead of using the default NETBIOS computer
name.

53
Note: IF YOU WILL BE USING KEYBOARD NAVIGATION PRESS THE F1 KEY, ARROW TO
'CONFIGURE TOOL BAR' AND ENTER. TAB TO 'DISPLAY FUNCTION KEYS', AND PRESS
THE SPACE BAR TO CHECK THE BOX.
From this toolbar, you can click on the buttons (KEYBOARD NAVIGATION: PRESS
THE APPLICABLE FUNCTION KEY) that have been configured in order to run the
Emulator, Boarding, Check-In, or Ticketing sessions. The buttons are configured
using the Session Configuration Wizard. This wizard is always the left-most
button on the toolbar. Except for the Session Configuration Wizard, all of the
buttons are named by the user. In the buttons displayed by the Commander,
only the session name (including spaces) will show up on the button. The
session description is visible in a "ToolTip" fashion when the customer holds the
mouse pointer over each button (from the description box in Step 1 of the
Session Configuration Wizard).
The Commander remembers its last position, so the next time it is launched, it
appears in the same position. However, the Commander will detect the video
resolution and make any necessary adjustments so that it is always visible on
screen.
The Commander will remain completely on the screen at all times and cannot
slide off where it cannot be seen. "Docking" the toolbar in a manner similar to
Microsoft's may be a future enhancement.
The toolbar itself is easily configurable with a right-mouse click on the Session
Configuration Wizard button. Right-clicking this button (OR PRESS THE F1 KEY)
presents the customer with at least the following options:

Deleting a Session
The only way to remove customer-defined session buttons is to right-click on the desired
Commander button (OR PRESSING THE APPROPRIATE FUNCTION KEY). This presents the
customer with one of two sets of menus: one for opening, configuring, or deleting a
session and another one for switching to the session or closing if that session was
already running. Note: The only way to remove customer-defined session buttons is to
right-click on the desired Commander button and choose Delete when the session is not
open.
Session Currently Open
The Configure option in the first menu allows the customer to go directly to the desired
Session Configuration Wizard screen without having to move through all six steps.
Session Name
Network login and password
Desired GUI front-end (if any)
Color settings
Communication parameters (protocols and PC/PCM settings)
The Commander has a Duplicate option so a customer does not need to go through six
or seven wizard screens again to have two similar buttons with slightly different colors.
Although the Wizard is smart enough to create a new session with most of the same
parameters as the original, manually specifying the Communication Parameters is still
required.

Introduction
The Script Assistant (SA) is a part of the Liaison suite of products. It is used to create
and maintain scripts used by the Liaison Terminal Emulator. Scripts can be as simple as
logging on or issuing a query command, or as complicated as issuing a series of
transactions, determining a course of action, then issuing more transactions based on
that determination. The SA is merely a guide to give you a quick command reference
and syntax checking.
Functional Description
- or -
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
109
When SA is first started there is no file loaded. The mode is set to allow you to begin
entering a new script. You can simply start typing commands, and when you press enter,
your line will be added the script and SA will be ready for your next line of input.
Instead of typing your lines manually, you can also build your script from a list of all
possible commands. Start by choosing a command from the drop-down box. All possible
command choices are in the drop-down box beside "Insert this command". Once you've
located the command you want, select the "Insert this command" button to insert this
command into the current line.
Any changes you make are not applied until you select the "Apply" button. Only then is
the top display updated to reflect your changes.
All possible function choices are in the drop-down box beside "Insert this function".
All possible operator choices are in the drop-down box beside "Insert this operator".
All possible variable choices are in the drop-down box beside "Insert this variable". This
box not only holds the system defined variables, but also any variables you define with
the "set" command.
The "Syntax" line will be updated with the correct information whenever SA can
determine which command is being used for the current line. The box underneath the
syntax will also be updated with a brief description of the command you are using;
offering help and some examples.
The "Move Up" button will move the current line up in the script. The "Move Down"
button will move the current line down in the script.
The "Increase Indent" button will insert a tab at the beginning of the line. The "Decrease
Indent" button will remove a tab at the beginning of the line. These only affect
appearance, as it is often visually helpful to indent code within a loop, for example.
The "Comment Line" box is used to denote whether the current line is simply a comment
or not. You can change a line to a comment line by simply clicking this box and applying
your change. You can also remove a comment from a line by clicking this box and
applying your change.
"Insert a line" inserts a new, blank line in front of the current line. You can then edit this
line to your liking.
"Delete a line" removes the current line from the script. You cannot remove the last line.
It must always be there and be blank.

SA Menus
SA includes the standard File/Open/Save/Save As/Close menus that are common to
Window's applications. The "Help/Legend" menu will give you a display similar to this
one.
The message in the "syntax" field will be color coded so you can quickly tell which
parameters are required or optional.

From the previous layout, simply place the mouse pointer over the desired device icon,
and Click. Each icon will produce a slightly different selection since the device types
vary. For this reason, the wizard process is presented for each device type. The
settings may also be changed anytime the Commander is active on the desktop and the
session is closed. Simply right click on the session you want to work with. Then
highlight "Configure", and "PCPCM Wizard". This will place you into Step 1 of 5 of the
PC/PCM Configuration Wizard, ready to work with the PC/PCM Wizard.

116
Click Next > after you are sure about the selection.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
117
Step 3, selection of the default printer, is presented next. Click on the selection box
arrow to receive all available print drivers. Highlight the print driver you require as the
default for Liaison. Once selected, it will appear in the box. Click on Next > to move
on to the next step.
Step 4 allows for definition of both Form Position and Character Translation on Carriage
Return and Line Feed. This is because some printers handle these settings differently;
some default to these settings, others are configurable through there DIP switch
settings.
When completed, click on the tab labeled "Character Translation.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
118
The combination of Carriage Return/Form Feed messages from the host with printer default
settings may cause undesired effects with the way a printer feeds and prints.
These settings may be controlled as seen below. Place a check next to the option needed for
your specific environment. Liaison defaults to the top setting, "CR=CR+LF". It is recommended
that this setting remains in the default position if CR/LF conditions are unknown.
Click on Next > when completed.
The final step is Step 5, and is a summary of the settings selected in the previous steps. Verify
the parameters in the white box, then click on "Configure Another Device" if PC/PCM needs to be
used for another printer or device, or, click on Done if the PC/PCM wizard is no longer needed.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
119
Highlight the printer manufacturer in the left box. For each manufacturer, accepted
model numbers appear in the right box. Highlight the applicable model number, and
Click Next > for additional configuration.

120
Click on the arrow "pull-down" list, and highlight the applicable port.
Next, click on the "pull-down" lists for Serial Parameters. IN all cases you must match the serial
settings found on the printer. All possible settings are seen below in the examples for each
parameter:
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
121
Select the next tab labeled "Override STX/ETX". This parameter determines the start and end
print characters found in the print data stream. The default settings are 2 and 3 respectively.
Generally, this setting should remain in the default mode, however, if the printer must accept
other characters, this may be changed. It is highly recommended that this remain in the default
position unless changed by an engineer to avoid anomalies.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
122
The final tab is labeled "Device Specific". By checking the box labeled "ACK all printer
input", PC/PCM will send an ASCII 06 command, the coded request for
acknowledgements from the printer.
This means for each message between PC/PCM and the printer, an acknowledgment
from the printer is expected. Default is left OFF, or unchecked. Note: For the TI810
printer, an additional option is offered, ESC sequences should default to the checked
ON position.
Click Next > when ALL settings are determined.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
123
Step 4 allows the definition of form, or paper type. For ticket printers, the default
positions are all zero because print position is dictated by the host print message.
Unless a special local situation arises, it is recommended that the default values remain
in place as incorrect settings here will cause print anomalies.
Step 4 also defines special character translation for Carriage Return and Line Feed, as
well as the option to Form Feed after each message. Place a check in the appropriate
option if desired. Again, some of these commands are sent from the host, and printer
types will vary, so these settings are dependent on these conditions. Click Next > when
selections are completed.

acknowledgements from the printer.
This means for each message between PC/PCM and the printer, an acknowledgment
from the printer is expected. Default is left OFF, or unchecked.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
130
Step 4 defines which PECTABs are used to encode, print, and read on the ATB2 type
document and mag stripe. The primary PECTAB is the format sent from the host for
ALL mag stripe encoding and printing, and most reading. The secondary, or "Input
Only" fields, allow for reading other PECTAB formats. Select the PECTAB by clicking on
the arrow drop-down menus: The Pectabs specified here must match the Pectabs
specified in the DPID or CONLNK on the host.
This example shows six choices for the primary PECTAB format. The same choices are
also presented when clicking on the "Input Only" boxes. These values represent the
most common codes, and other PECTABs may be typed in manually. Be sure the value
selected exists on the host application.
The next value to be determined is Transaction Code Length, or "Tran Code Length".
This number represents the length of the device prefix code, and almost all devices
approved by SITA default to "5". However, some devices are not flexible on this setting,
and the value can vary from 0-5. When changing from the default value of "5", be sure
you have received the correct setting from the device manual. Here is what the dropdown menu looks like:
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
131
The last setting in Step 4 determines where CLF translation takes place. CLF codes are
PECTAB numeric field identifiers converted into 4-alpha identifiers used to easier
recognize the field content. For example, PECTAB field 04 may contain the Passenger
Name. The CLF code would be "NAME". Earlier devices are not capable of making this
translation, as they do not possess the processing power to do so. In this case,
PC/PCM receives the numeric field code and performs the translation. Later devices are
able to send the CLF code. In this case, select "Device". PC/PCM must be flagged to
perform this function, or ignore it. Select the radio button that applies.

Appendix B - X.28 Asynchronous Configuration
A Word about X.28
Liaison has the ability to connect and communicate to the host systems in
ATL via asynchronous means, or "dial-up". The protocol standard used is
called X.28. A local telephone number is provided by SITA to dial into a
Packet Assembler / Dis-Assembler (PAD), which is the direct entry point into
the SITA network.
The PAD qualifies the incoming request by verifying the account information
(NUI/Network Password) issued to the caller by SITA. After passing the account
verification level, SITA network searches for the Destination Network Address
(DNA) and, when found, connects into the host systems. Other layers of security
must then be satisfied, such as User ID/Password and host Sign-In. This
completes the process of connecting, and normal host transactions may now
commence.
Special note should be taken when considering host User Group, or the amount
of functionality allowed. Since X.28 connectivity utilizes Dynamic PIDs, there is a
limitation to User Group 17 and higher. This is an intentional security feature,
designed to inhibit functionality over the easy access dial-up provides.
Dynamic PIDs also have several other limitations. A permanent ZZ address may
not be established for dynamic PIDs. With dynamic PIDs, the PID changes each
time you connect. Since a ZZ address is tied to a specific PID, you cannot
assign a ZZ address to a dynamic PID. Also, Ticketing cannot be used on
dynamic PIDs. Both these limitations may be overcome at some point, so
contact Atlanta for a status update.
Asynchronous modems provide the means for communication from a PC. There
are literally hundreds of manufacturers offering several models each in the
market today. Most conform to conventional standards, such as Hayes. There
will be some, however, which do not completely comply. Anomalies will occur
during the dialing/handshake process in such cases. When this happens, it is
advisable to consult the user manual from the modem manufacturer for a
recommended initialization string. In some remote cases, connectivity may not
be achieved at all. Be sure your modem is Hayes compatible to avoid these
problems.
X.28 dialup is often confused with dialup TCP-IP. X.28 dialup uses a standard PC
modem. Dialup IP uses a router.
The information contained herein is property of SITA. Legal action will be taken against any infringement.
144
Click on OK to continue.
The next box to appear will be "Dial Up Properties". The settings in the upper portion of
the box define the interaction between the PC, modem, and telephone line. The lower
portions are values the SITA network requires to satisfy account information and security
levels. Where the drop-down arrows are seen, values may be chosen

This is the telephone number of the local PAD. If a dialing prefix is needed,
type this in first, followed by a comma (,) or a "W" for a pause, needed for the
second dial tone
Select the COM port the PC uses to connect itself to the modem
This is the speed of line transmission (Bits Per Second). Be sure not to
exceed the speed rating for the modem
Select between 7 and 8. This setting depends on the modem (SITA ATL
default is 8).
Generally, this setting depends on the modem. Use "E" for Even, "O" for Odd,
and "N" for None. (SITA ATL default is N)
Always leave in the default value of "1". However, it may be set to either "1.5"
or "2", if required. (SITA ATL default is 1)
The modem initialization string, using Hayes standard dialogue. The default
value is "ATV1E1".
Some modems require a second initialization string, separate from the first.
This field may also be used to enable such Hayes features like "speaker on".
A minimum character string of "AT" must appear in this field.
Number of seconds between modem initialization steps. Must be a whole
number, not a decimal or fraction
If a connection has not been established within this number of seconds, the
session is terminated and must be re-initiated. Recommended length is
between 20-40 seconds
For rotary telephone service, select "Pulse". For touch-tone service, select
"Tone"
A character string sent to the PAD when it answers a call. This is a means of
telling the PAD to respond. DO NOT change the values
The Network NUI value is obtained from SITA once an X.28 account is
established. Based upon your geographic location the Network NUI and
Password may be obtained from your SITA Account Manager.
The NUI and Password are issued upon receipt of an X.28 request. The NUI
will be 8 characters long. The first 4 characters are controlled by the Liaison
registration key and will appear on this screen automatically. If they appear
incorrectly on this screen, you must obtain a modified registration key from
Liaison Support@SITA.AERO
Also obtained from SITA with the NUI. Strictly used for security match
This is the Destination Network Address for ATLIS. Note the default
(9001031,PDX28M) is for PSA connections. For PSB access it should read
9001181,PDX28M
Click on OK when all values have been entered. The wizard will present the next and final
parameters for X.28 in a box labeled "Dynamic PID Properties". This information is
packaged into the X.28 packet header. Then delivers CONLNK elements to the host
system for dynamic PID definition.
