Specifies the interval since the last input was received from the terminal, after which the 'lock' internal session is activated.
This common end-user parameter is applicable to these control statements: SYSTEM (see SYSTEM statement), PROFILE (see PROFILE statement), USER (see USER statement), and TERMINAL (see TERMINAL statement).
IDLELOCK minutes [DIRECTION IN|INOUT]
Default: IDLELOCK 0 DIRECTION IN
Specify a value in the range 0-1440 for minutes. 0 means that the timer-based 'lock' function is not used.
This optional subparameter controls whether (activity on) input alone, or on both input and output datastreams will inhibit a timeout. If DIRECTION IN is in effect then the interval counter is not reset by screen updating.
Note: When updated, this option comes into effect at the next terminal enter.
