For JES2, POWER, and AS/400 SYSIN. JES3 does not use, send,
or store and forward these sections.
Record Characteristic Change Section (RCCS) has an identifier field of X’00’ and a modifier field of X’40’. Only used on SYSIN data. Not required if all SYSIN data is RECFM F and LRECL 80. When present, it is sent as the only section in the data set header without the “basic” general section and with a modifier of X’00’.

|
11xx xxxx |
Undefined format |
|

AS/400 does not use this field but sets it to indicate fixed format. RSCS does not create this header section.
RSCS uses this field as a store-and-forward node to determine if a SYSIN file will be stored as coded NOPs (completed when NDHCRCFM indicates the file is not fixed format). Length and type: 1 binary
Default value: 0
Maximum record length in the SYSIN data set that follows. AS/400 sets this field but does not use it. RSCS uses this field as a store-and-forward node to determine if a SYSIN file will be stored as coded NOPs (completed when NDHCLREC indicates the record length is not 80). POWER always has an undefined record format. Length, type, and range: 2 binary (0-252)
Default value: 0
