Operating Mode

Factory default: Echo

The setting of this option determines how keyboard entered data is sent to the host and displayed on the screen.

In Character mode, keyboard entered data is sent simultaneously to the host and the display.

In Block mode, keyboard entered data is displayed and processed locally, allowing you to edit it before a block of data is sent to the host.

24 rows x 80 columns
