Configuring Software for the Remote System

You must meet the requirements of the remote system for successful communications. Though the MT2834ZPX can automatically match the speed of the other modem, you must specify parameters such as type of flow control, break length, number of data bits, number of stop bits, and parity. If you set these parameters incorrectly with the remote system, gibberish will appear on your screen (See Figure 3-2).

Terminal Emulation

If you are accessing the remote computer as if from an on-site terminal, the keyboard codes used by your computer may not match the ones used by the remote computer. To be compatible with the remote computer, your software must be able to substitute the appropriate codes in what is known as terminal emulation. Most communications programs can emulate the most common mainframe terminals, including the DEC VT100, VT102, and VT52 terminals, and the basic TTY mode. If in doubt about which to choose for a BBS, try ANSI or VT100 first. The following is the MultiExpress for Windows Terminal Emulation selection screen:
