Setup Menus

The type of handshake used for block transfers is determined by the type of block transfer to be performed, the mode that the HP70092 emulation currently operating in (character, block line, block page, or modify mode), and the setting of these two options.

The setting of these two options will have the following general effect:

InhHndShk only selected:

The DC1/DC2/DC1 handshake or no handshake will be used.

InhDC2 only selected:

The DC1 handshake or no handshake will be used.

InhHndShk and InhDC2 selected:

No handshake will be used.

Enq/Ack Pacing

Factory default: Selected

The setting of this option determines whether the Hewlett Packard ENQ ACK handshake is used or not. When selected, the host can send an ASCII ENQ (enquiry) control code at the end of transmission asking if the data has been processed, to which the emulator will reply by sending an ACK (acknowledge) code when it has. Note that this form of handshaking has the lowest priority after hardware and XON/XOFF handshaking.

EscXfer

Factory default: Unselected

This option determines whether escape sequences relating to the display are sent when the display memory is transferred to the printer.

When unselected, escape sequences relating to the display are not sent to the printer. When selected, each line transferred to the printer will begin with an escape sequence to select the primary character set and stop any character enhancements. When escape sequences relating to the display are encountered within the data (for example, to change the character set), they will be sent to the printer.

Destructive Backspace

Factory default: Unselected

The setting of this option determines whether or not pressing the Backspace key will cause characters to be deleted.

CR = CR/NULL

Factory default: Unselected

This option must only be selected if you are going to use the QEDIT application. It overcomes a bug within QEDIT that ignores the LF character if the terminal transmits CR/LF. Inserting a NULL after the CR character cures the problem.
