As with the Introduction lesson, a mainframe or server outputs a continuous data stream containing multiple jobs.
The Introduction lesson showed the continuous data stream being passed to a line printer. Now it is passed to a FunAsset TN Interface emulating a line printer and operating the Banner Processing software.
In order for the Banner Processing software to determine how the data stream should be processed, a Parameter File is used (example above).

The following pages describe how this file is configured. . .
