QUERY ALL
v INT REQ, which means the device is not ready and requires manual intervention
before spool file processing could resume.
Note: If STARTED were replaced by any of the above options, except DRAINING,
the second line of the response would not appear.
SYSTEM might be replaced by a user ID, which means the device was available for
input without user identification cards. All input decks would be assigned to the user
ID specified.
The second line of the response means the card reader is currently active with a
spool file. In this example, the reader at the real device number 000C is reading a
card deck and creating a file that will be the user PERCY’s spool file 0021.
