WFL/DCP SPO

SPO

In MCP based systems one or more consoles can function as the "SPO", the system operator interface. Originally it stood for "Supervisory Print Out" in the early MCP but has become "Single Point Operations" service in current MCP.

In aii.biz, this is the uniform GUI for dominion operations management and it corresponds to a squeak image I distribute and support.

The SPO would be associated with a particular Operator Display Terminals (ODT), the TD series (TD830 shown) being the classic corresponding to IBM 3270s, by assignment in the NDL (Network Definition Language) sources for the machine controlled. The one in the image has a lot of reverse video, they were normally white text on black, unlike the IBM "greenscreen".
