General Menu (F2)
Note:
This chapter lists all possible parameters for each menu, and all possible choices for each parameter. Depending on the emulation selected, and the key mode
(ASCII or ScanCode), Setup will only present the valid set of parameters and choices in each menu.
Emulation
Choose the “personality” of the terminal. See the description under Quick Menu (F1), on page 18.
Enhanced
Choose whether the terminal can respond to commands beyond the limitations of the current emulation. See the description under Quick Menu (F1), on page
18.
Auto Wrap: On, Off
Choose whether the cursor drops to the next line when it reaches the right margin or continues to display characters at the right margin. In ANSI emulation,
the default is off.
Auto Font Load: On, Off
Choose whether the four font banks (0-3) should automatically be loaded when the screen size or the emulation is changed.
Auto Page: On, Off
When Auto Page mode is on and the cursor is moved off the page using a command that includes scroll, the screen displays the new page. These pages are
numbered from 0 to a maximum of 9. When on, Auto Page tracks the page even if Auto Scroll is off. The up arrow key does not have an embedded scroll
command, so you cannot use it to view the previous page even when Auto Page is on.
Auto Scroll: On, Off
Choose whether the terminal updates the display when the cursor is moved beyond the boundaries of the currently viewed screen.
Monitor Mode: On, Off
Choose whether control codes appear as their graphic representations or are acted upon as terminal/cursor commands.
Screen Saver: Off, 2 min, 5 min, 15 min, 30 min
Choose whether the screen will go blank after lack of activity (from the keyboard or the host) for the selected period of time. The first key typed at the
keyboard when the screen is blank reactivates the display, but the key is not transmitted to the host. The Caps Lock LED (or Lock on the ANSI keyboard)
flashes when Screen Saver is active.
Note:
20 minutes after the screen saver is activated, Energy Star, a power saving feature, is activated. The first key typed at the keyboard restores the energy level.
Bell Volume: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Choose the bell volume from off [0] to high [9]. This sets the volume for alarm tones, warning bells, and keyclicks.
Warning Bell: On,
Off
Choose whether a warning bell is sounded when errors (such as an invalid compose sequence) are encountered.
Host/Printer
Designates physical ports to the host and printer. See the description under Quick Menu (F1), on page 18.
Bell Length: 140 ms, 350 ms, 570 ms, 780 ms
Denotes duration of bell sound.
Setup Lang: US, Fren
ch, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese
Affects setup and status lines.
Cursor Dir: right to left, left to right
This feature affects the direction in which the text is entered (it defaults t
o right to left when Hebrew language is chosen).
