How to configure CICS to act as conversational or no-conversational modes ?

Hi Experts

How to configure CICS to act as conversational or no-conversational modes ?
Is it inside the program or at OS itself ?

Thanks in advance

This is done in the application program, not in CICS itself.  Pseudoconversational (or non-conversational) mode means that the application transaction returns to CICS after displaying a screen.  When the user responds, a new transaction is begun to process the user input.  There are several ways to implement a pseudoconversational transaction.

A conversational transaction displays a screen and then the program waits for a response with a RECEIVE command.  This means that the transaction is active while the user is reading the display and (hopefully) entering the response data.
