Auto wrap

If “Auto wrap” is disabled (set to “N”), characters received when the cursor is at the

right edge of the screen replace the previously displayed characters. If “Auto wrap”

is enabled (set to “Y”), the cursor wraps to the next line when the current line is

filled. The display scrolls up if the cursor is at the bottom margin.

Erasure mode

When this parameter is disabled (set to “N”), erase functions can only erase

unprotected characters. When enabled (set to “Y”), the erase functions can

erase characters regardless of their protected state.

Tab stop mode

When this parameter is disabled (set to “N”), the setting and clearing of horizontal

tab stops apply to the same horizontal position of all lines on the page. When enabled

(set to ‘Y”), horizontal tab setting and clearing apply only to the current line.

Edit extent

This parameter selects the extent of the display to be affected by the ICH and DCH

controls and received character insertion. The possible values are

Line, Area,

Display or Fld. The shifting caused by ICH, DCH and character insertion is

confined to the selected extent.

Disp controls

When this parameter is disabled (set to “N”), any control codes received from the

host are performed as described. When enabled (set to “Y”), any received control

functions are displayed and are not performed. If any C0 or C1 controls are received

from the host, their standard ANSI mnemonics are displayed in reverse video. Other

characters are displayed as normal characters. This mode can also be set with the Set

Mode (SM) control but can only be reset from the Parameters menu.
