Data Options and Profiles
If Autoadjust is off, you must set speed and parity with the set command.
Break
Option Values: off, attention, interrupt, break, discard, reset
Applicable Data Protocols: See below
This option determines what the ADM does when you press
BREAK
on your
attached data terminal during data transfer.
For X.25 and Mode 3 data protocols: If you select off, the ADM does not respond
to
BREAK
. If you select interrupt, the ADM sends an interrupt packet to the
remote Packet Assembler Disassembler (PAD). If you select break, an interrupt
packet is sent, followed by an indication of break X.29 message. If you select
discard, the ADM sends an interrupt packet, an indication of break X.29
message, and discards any incoming data from the network. If you select reset,
the ADM sends an X.25 reset packet to the network. If you select attention, the
ADM escapes from the Data Mode to the Local Data Mode enabling you to enter
commands. Use of
BREAK
as an attention sequence, is in addition to the three
character attention sequence selected by the attention option. For Mode 2 and
all V.120 data modes,
BREAK
is transported to the far-end regardless of the
option setting.
Char.erase (Character Erase)
Option Values: bs
Ctrl
-
H
, delete (DEL), #, off
Applicable Data Protocols: X.25, Mode 3, BV64I, and BV56I
This option allows you to choose the character you will use as an erase
character when Edit is on.
The selected character is not transmitted to the far end. See Line.erase later on
in this chapter.
DCD (Data Carrier Detect)
Option Values: follow, ignore
Applicable Data Protocols: All
This option determines whether the ADM turns on the Data Carrier Detect (DCD)
lead when a data call is in progress, and off when one is not (follow), or whether
it keeps DCD on essentially all the time (ignore).
If your data terminal transmits data only when the DCD lead is on, set DCD to
ignore. When the DCD lead is set to ignore, it appears to your terminal that a
data call is always present, except for one second following termination of a call.
This enables your data terminal to transmit commands to the ADM even when a
data call is not present. This setting is appropriate for most users.
Set the DCD lead to follow only if your application requires that DCD be off
