What is the difference between FSET and FRSET?

Answer Posted / mani

Am sorry the information in the previous answer is wrong.

when FSET is used in the DFHMSD or DFHMDF then the data in
the receiving field woould be sent irrespective of whether
the data has been entered by the user or not.
FSET sets the MDT bit on and when it is on the data would be
sent to the application program irrespective of whether the
user has entered the data or not, if MDT is off data would
not be sent.

FRSET is used to reset the MDT bit when the same map is sent
several times to the terminal and data received the status
of MDT would be that of the previous one.

FRSET sets MDT bit to zero so that unless and otherwise the
data is entered by the terminal user the data would not be
sent and status of MDT would not be that of the previous use.
