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

◦Echo mode, keyboard entered data is sent only to the host. The host is then responsible for returning the data to the display.

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

◦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.

●Terminal ID

Factory default: Unspecified

This specifies what is reported back to the host in response to a terminal identification request. The terminal ID can be up to 20 characters long. Note that not all features of the specified terminal may be supported.

●Font

Factory default: Courier New

This enables you to specify the font to be used for displaying characters. The available settings depend on the fonts installed.

●Character set

Factory default: Multinational

This enables you to specify the character set to be used for displaying characters.

The PC Ansi setting will use the PC (ANSI) character set specified by the Ansi codepage option.
