Set SWF, Timeout Setting, To Set a Pause

Automatic Timeout

The COS II times the intervals between the reception of each character and the next. You may instruct it to return to an unlinked state after intervals of 2.5, 5, or 10 minutes, or you may disable this automatic timeout feature. SWF 5 and SWF 6 control this feature.

	Set SWF-
Timeout Setting	5	6
2.5 minutes	ON	ON
5 minutes	OFF	ON
10 minutes	ON	OFF
Disabled	OFF	OFF

Graphics Pause

These switch settings are followed only when the COS II has been set previously for Graphics Mode (for an explanation, see Section 4.5). They determine the amount of time that must pass before the COS II recognizes a control code sequence.

By providing for this pause, it is possible to send graphics files through the unit with no risk that it will switch accidentally when it encounters a control code sequence, or its binary equivalent. SWF 7 and SWF 8 determine the length of the pause.

If you choose CTS-to-DTR Pass-Through, CTS (Pin 5) and DTR (Pin 20) are passed straight through the Switch. The next table shows how the DTE or DCE setting of the port affects the pass- through option:

NOTE: If the internal buffer fills, the appropriate

control lead (DTR or CTS) will be dropped to prevent data loss.

If you select Normal Operation, DTR (Pin 20) and CTS (Pin 5) are used strictly for buffer control. They are not passed straight through the Switch.

DCD-to-RTS Pass-Through Mode
To Set This Mode	Set SWC 8
CTS-to-DTR Pass-Through	ON
Normal Operation	OFF

If you select DCD-to-RTS Pass-Through, DCD

(Pin 8) and RTS (Pin 4) are passed straight through the Switch. The next table shows how the DTE or DCE setting of the port affects the pass-through option:

If you select Normal Operation, DCD and RTS are
