Terminal and Printer Profiles
Terminal Profile Screen (Host-Based)
1 specifies DCE modem behavior. Used for terminal
connections. It uses a 2 minute timer to establish the
link, and the DTC may disconnect if a carriage return is
not received within a 2 minute interval.
2 specifies DTE modem behavior. Used for termtype 26
supported on MPE/iX for remote printer access.
3 specifies DCE modem behavior, except that it does not
use a 2 minute timer to establish the link. The DTC
does not disconnect the link after a 2 minute interval
and the port remains open for connection
establishment. (This option is supported on
DTC 16iX/16MX and DTC 72MX only.)
This field does not apply for DTC 16RX access to an
HP 3000 in an MPE/iX host-based management
environment; any value entered in this field for a
DTC 16RX will be ignored.
Data
Length/Parity
Specifies the type of parity and data length will be used
using this profile. The full list of supported data length
with parity settings is as given:
None means that the 8 bits data length with parity
none will be used.
Even means that the 7 bits data length with even
parity will be used.
Odd means that 7 bits data length with odd parity will
be used.
0s means that 7 bits data length with parity forced to 0
will be used.
1s means that 7 bits data length with parity forced to 1
will be used.
8eve means that 8 bits data length with even parity
will be used. (Supported on DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and
DTC 72MX only.)
8odd means that 8 bits data length with odd parity will
be used. (Supported on DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and
DTC 72MX only.)
Number of
stop bits Specifies the number of stop bits to be used for
asynchronous characters. Enter a 1 to set 1 stop bit and
2 for 2 stop bits. The default value is 1. Supported on
DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and DTC 72MX only.
