ETX/ACK Handshaking
Possible Values: Off*, On
ETX/ACK Off
Enables or disables the ACK response to receipt of the ETX character. This handshake method is useful for conditions where there are long transmission line delays such as telephone lines, which may be routed through satellites. An ACK character will be returned to the host computer after an ETX character is received and processed. ETX characters used for handshaking cannot be part of an escape sequence.
