4 Fax Class 1 and Fax Class 1.0 Commands
4.1 Fax I/O Processing
The fax I/O interface supports asynchronous serial and parallel interfaces. The character
format is 8 bits data, no parity, and 1 stop bit. Start and stop elements are removed from the
transmit data and added to the receive data. Both transmit and receive data are buffered. Flow
control using XON/XOFF or RTS/CTS is provided.
Unique control character strings are identified, filtered, or reinserted into the I/O data stream.
These control characters and their resultant action are described below.
4.1.1 DTE-to-Modem Transmit Data Stream

4.1.2 Modem-to-DTE Receive Data Stream

<DLE> Insert extra <DLE> ahead of <DLE>.
The modem also identifies the end of a frame by inserting <DLE><ETX> into the data stream
after the FCS bytes.
