# PSEUDO - CICS Pseudo-Conversational Mode

This Natural profile parameter controls the mode of operation under CICS.

Note
When Natural is executing under control of the TP monitor CICS, two modes are possible: conversational and pseudo-conversational.

Possible settings | `ON` | `PSEUDO=ON` enables pseudo-conversational mode. Note In this mode, a Natural session is a sequence of different transactions. After each output to the terminal, all Natural work areas are saved and the transaction is terminated. When the user responds to a message by pressing ENTER (or any other input key), a new transaction is initiated. The Natural work areas are restored, the terminal input is read and the Natural session is continued. The transaction identification of each following transaction can be set dynamically by calling the subroutine `CMTRNSET`, which is provided in the library `SYSEXTP`.
`OFF` | `PSEUDO=OFF` disables pseudo-conversational mode and enables conversational mode. Notes: In conversational mode, a Natural session is one transaction which is active for as long as the Natural session is active. Note for CICS: A specification of `PSEUDO=OFF` is ignored for Natural server sessions. See Natural Server Sessions under CICS in the Operations documentation.
Default setting | `ON` |
Dynamic specification | yes |
Specification within session | no |
