Use the ISPF 3.7 (Transfer) option. You can use this option to download a copy of the ISPF Workstation executable (WSA.EXE) that you will install and configure on your desktop.

Since this is an ISPF application, it can be automated just like any other ISPF application. You can use these ISPF Workstation services to initiate the connection from the mainframe to the workstation, and to transfer data:

- WSCON
- FILEXFER
- WSCMD
- WSDISCON

These ISPF services are described here:
