The EIA Pass Through option allows the data device to receive EIA control signals through the MultiFRAD. This option only applies during the async mode of operation. Since, in normal interactive operation, the existence of a MultiFRAD should be transparent to the user, the EIA pass through option allows a terminal to operate as if it were connected directly to a communications line and not through a MultiFRAD. This is done by allowing selected pins (signals) on one MultiFRAD to be passed through to selected pins on a remote MultiFRAD. The default condition is for this option to be turned off. The following diagram shows how the EIA pass through option routes the selected signals:

The Pass Xon option enables the XON/XOFF flow control signals to be passed on to the data device. This option only applies during the async mode of operation. This option has to be used in conjunction with the
