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.)

made with XON/XOFF characters. If set to N, the
XON/XOFF characters sent from device are not
interpreted by DTC. This function is also known as
“software handshake”. This field does not apply for
DTC 16RX access to an HP 3000 in an MPE/iX
host-based management environment, and any value
entered in this field for a DTC 16RX will be ignored.
