In the case of binary transfer, neither openFT (BS2000) nor the partner system converts the data to be sent or received to a different code. The data is stored by the receiving system in the form in which it was sent by the sending system. The user is responsible for checking that the receiving system supports the code used in the file.
If a CCSN is assigned as an attribute to the send file, openFT transfers the CCSN to the receiving system (openFT partners).
If the receiving system is openFT in a BS2000 system, the CCSN of the send file is assigned as an attribute to the receive file without any further verification. Assignment is implemented even if the CCSN is not defined in the local system, i.e. no code tables with the name in question exist. It is not absolutely essential for XHCS to be loaded.
If the receiving system is not an openFT on a BS2000 system, the CCSN is ignored.
If openFT receives a file from a third party system, it does not receive information on the character set used. The user is responsible for assigning the CCSN to the file as an attribute, if the character set is defined in the local BS2000 system.
