Details

The current graphics device is the one specified at invocation of SAS. You can specify the graphics device on the command line in response to a prompt when you use a product that uses SAS/GRAPH. You can also specify the graphics device in a configuration file. The name of the current graphics device is also the value of the SAS system option DEVICE=.
For details, see the SAS documentation for your operating environment.
Note: The macro processor always stores the value of SYSDEVIC in unquoted form. To quote the resolved value of SYSDEVIC, use the %SUPERQ macro quoting function.

Comparisons

Assigning a value to SYSDEVIC is the same as specifying a value for the DEVICE= system option.
