RTVDEVDSP       RETRIEVE DEVICE DISPLAY                TAADEVD

The  Retrieve Device  Display  command  retrieves information  about  a
display device such as the type, model, port, and switch settings.

A typical command would be:

             DCL          &TYPE *CHAR LEN(10)
              .
             RTVDEVDSP    DEV(xxx) TYPE(&TYPE)

The QDCRDEVD API is used to access the information.
