Hmmm, sounds like your screen had more than 4096 locations. If it did, all inbound buffer addresses are in the 14-bit format. SDSF probably only handles 12-bit addressing, both in and out, but if the entire screen is repainted consecutively then the only output buffer address you need is location zero. The input parsing could probably be fixed with two extra instructions (a TM followed by a BNO or JNO to skip the 12-bit decoding acrobatics). Under ISPF, ISPF handles all the 3270 dependencies for apps such as SDSF.
