Table 4-4 Terminal PAD Profiles
Profile Definition Usage
1PAD Test
Init profile
X.3 setting
Data Forward default
Default terminal profile.
Does not need to be entered in the CALL User Data.
Direct replacement for the “Terminal” device type of
releases prior to 12.0.
Ensures backward compatibility with DTC 2.0 to
10.5.
5PAD Test
Init profile
X.3 setting
Data forward 3:127
Used in data transfer.
Recommended for more performance of the Telnet
path (X.29 SERVER profile compatibility) or for iX
character mode applications which need to send
each character to the host (for example, HPEDIT).
The profile loads the X.25 line with many, small
packets each time the application needs a
termination character other than CR.
The PAD must support 3:127.
9PAD Test
Init profile
X.3 setting
Data forward 4:1
Used in data transfer.
Recommended when you need more performance in
iX character mode applications which need to send
each character to the host.
The profile loads the X.25 line with many, small
packets each time the application requires a
termination character other than CR.
