This manual is intended for all users of the dialog interface as well as DP managers and systems support staff responsible for making decisions regarding the use of SDF. It demonstrates the possibilities which SDF offers the user for the input of commands and statements and provides an overview of all SDF functions. Use of the manual requires a basic knowledge of BS2000.

Chapters 1 through 7 and parts of chapters 10 and 13 are relevant for all users. The other chapters are intended for the system administration.

Further SDF capabilities for systems support tasks as well as self-defined commands or the program interface are described in the “SDF-A” manual [4].
