Terminal/Computer Initiated Pacing &E13 | Black Box MD1640A manual

CHAPTER 5: Command Mode

connected in Reliable mode, a different method of modem flow control is used, and the commands for Normal Mode Modem Flow Control are ignored.

When you are using Speed Conversion in Normal Mode, you must activate the modem’s Normal Mode Modem Flow Control. (Speed Conversion is explained in Section 5.4.11.)

Terminal/Computer Initiated Pacing &E13

As mentioned earlier, the Series II Modem can initiate flow control by issuing Xon/Xoff commands or toggling the CTS signal on the RS232C interface. The modem can also be configured to react to similar com- mands and signals from the computer or terminal to which it is attached via the RS232C interface. We refer to the computer or terminal initiated flow control as Pacing. When the modem is set for Pacing On, the modem will respond to the terminal or computer pacing. When the modem is set for Pacing Off, it will ignore pacing.

In order for the Series II Modem to be set for Pacing On, a modem- initiated method of flow control must be previously selected. Once this is done, the Modem will respond to either Xon/Xoff commands, or to the toggling of the RTS (Request to Send) signal on Pin 4 of the RS232C interface, depending on what you selected earlier as your Modem-Initiated Flow Control method.

Maximum Block Size &BS

The maximum size of Reliable mode data blocks can be controlled with the &BS command. MNP 3 sends blocks of 1 to 64 characters. MNP 4 and 5 typically send blocks of 1 to 256 characters and LAP-M typically send 128 characters. For MNP Classes 4 and 5 and for LAP-M, reducing the block size to 64 characters may give a smoother flow of data, and better throughput on noisy phone lines. Using smaller block sizes over good phone lines may cause a slight loss in throughput (speed).

AT&BS0 = Maximum transmit block size of 64 characters

AT&BS1 = Maximum transmit block size of 128 characters (LAP-M) or 256 characters (MNP)

The factory default setting is &BS1.
