Escape From Data Transfer Character
Enter an ASCII character to use as an escape from data transfer. Non-displayable
ASCII characters are specified in caret-character (^character) format. The literal
caret (^) and backslash (\) are escaped with a backslash. This field must be filled.
The escape from data transfer character is used at a terminal to switch from the host
system to the DTC terminal user interface. This value applies only to terminal ports
for which switching is enabled. (see “Enable Switching” on page 78).
If switching is enabled when the DTC is configured, you can press any key on a
DTC terminal to get a DTC prompt. You can then log on to your system. Later, if
you wish to leave your system but not log off, you enter the escape from data
transfer character (Ctrl-K). You see the DTC prompt again and can enter a DTC
user terminal interface command. Refer to appendix B, "DTC Terminal Parameters
and Commands.". You can even connect to another system. The number of systems
you can connect to is determined by the “Maximum Number of Sessions”.
The default escape from data transfer character is ^K (Ctrl-K).
Saving a default port configuration
You can save the configuration of any port as your default port configuration. Each
time you add a new DTC to your configuration, its ports are automatically
configured to be the same as the user default port configuration. You can save a user
default configuration for each of the three port types: terminal, printer and host.
