USING THE OPTIONAL ASCII FEATURE AND FAST TYPE
FAST TYPE
Your Memory Printer has a feature called a FAST TYPE. With this feature, if you are communicating with another Krown TDD equipped with FAST TYPE or a different type of TDD with an equivalent feature, you now have some new capabilities.
You may type as fast as you like - up to about 100 words/minute. You may also interrupt the conver- sation when the other person is typing to you. To interrupt the other TDD, you may type:
CTRL + | I | *INTERRUPT SENT* | appears on your TDD. |
|
|
| appears on the TDD you are |
|
|
| |
|
| *INTERRUPTED* | |
|
|
| typing to. |
To enable FAST TYPE:
CTRL + | BACK | |
SPACE | ||

USE ASCII? Y/N
USE FAST TYPE? Y/N
FAST TYPE ON
BAUDOT (45.5) ON
appears on your TDD. Type [N] to disable ASCII.
Type [Y] to turn on FAST TYPE.
FAST TYPE mode is ON.
If you type [N], you will return to the Baudot 45.5 standard.
Note: If you select FAST TYPE ON, your TDD will still automatically communicate with older TDDs or with TDDs that do not have FAST TYPE in BAUDOT TDD Code (45.5 Baud).
ASCII CODE
The ASCII feature of your MP2000D allows you to communicate with others who do not have Baudot TDDs, but instead have a home computer or computer terminal connected to a modem. Of course, you can also communicate in ASCII with other TDD users who have ASCII TDDs. You may also use your TDD to communicate with Relay Services.
The MP2000D with ASCII is setup to automatically communicate in ASCII in the following modes when you turn on the MP2000D.
• 300 Baud • Half Duplex • Answer
If you manually select the ASCII mode by pressing [CTRL] + [BACKSPACE], and you do not change the modes, (Press [N]) the MP2000D will be in the following modes:
• 300 Baud | • Half Duplex | • Answer |
If can also be changed to the following modes: |
| |
• 300 or 110 Baud | • Half or Full Duplex• Answer or Originate | |
