The UTAB2 parameter is specified as follows:

UTAB2=(a1,a2,b1,b2,c1,c2,...)

You specify pairs of characters, the first character of a pair being a upper-case character to be translated, the second character of a pair being the lower-case character into which the upper-case character is to be translated.

You can specify each character either as the one-byte character itself (enclosed in apostrophes) or as the two-byte hexadecimal representation of that character.
