Terminal type file name Instead of using the default terminal types 10, 18, or 24, you
may create your own terminal type and save it in a file. To create a
customized terminal type, use the Workstation Configurator,
TTUTIL.PUB.SYS. Refer to the Customizing Terminal and Printer Type
Files with Workstation Configurator for more information.
Line speed The line speed, in bits per second. Supported speeds are 300, 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, and 38400. (Line speed 38400 is supported for
direct connect devices on DTC 16iX/16MX and DTC 72MX only, and
the attached device must also support this speed. This field does not
apply for DTC 16RX access to an HP e3000 in an MPE/iX host-based
management environment; any value entered in this field for a DTC
16RX will be ignored.)
Record width The number of characters for each record. For HP terminals, the record
width is usually 80 (the width of the screen).
Modem type Specifies the type of modem used in the connection.
0 means that modems will not be used.
1 means that a US modem will be used.
2 means that a European modem will be used.
3 means that a Five wires modem will be used. (Supported on
DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and DTC 72MX only.)
4 means that a US In Out modem will be used. (Supported on
DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and DTC 72MX only.)
5 means that a European Modem In Out will be used. (Supported on
DTC 16iX/DTC 16MX and DTC 72MX only.)
Modem behavior The DTC supports the following types of modem behavior which define
the protocol used to establish a modem link between the DTC port and
the attached device.
0 means no modem used.
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 H P3000 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:
