XON n

Mode: All

Default: $11

Parameters:

n0 to $7F, specifying an ASCII character code.

This command selects the MFJ-1278B Restart character, which is sent by the MFJ-1278B to the computer or terminal to restart input from that device. You can enter the code in either hex or decimal.

This character would ordinarily be set to <CTRL-Q> for computer data transfers. If you are operating your station in Converse Mode, and there is some chance that you might fill up the MFJ-1278B's buffers, you might set this character to <CTRL-G> ($07), which rings a bell on many terminals.
