Pacing (Computer-Initiated Flow Control)

 

n = 12 or 13

 

Default: &E13

 

Pacing is the means by which the DTE (data terminal equipment—your computer or

 

terminal) regulates the stream of incoming data. It is only enabled when the modem has

 

some form of flow control active, such as RTS/CTS or XON/XOFF. When pacing is enabled,

 

the modem responds to the DTE’s pacing signals. When pacing is disabled, the modem

 

ignores any pacing signals from the DTE.

 

&E12 disables pacing.

 

&E13 enables pacing.

#Xn

Number of XOFF Characters Sent

 

n = 0 or 1

 

Default: #X0

 

The #X command allows the modem to send either a single or multiple XOFF characters

 

when the modem’s buffer becomes full. When the buffer is full, the next character received

 

causes an XOFF character to be sent. In default mode, only one character is sent until the

 

buffer reaches the XON level; however, it is also possible to send one XOFF character for

 

every character received after the buffer is full.

 

#X0 causes only a single XOFF character to be sent after the buffer is full.

 

#X1 causes one XOFF character to be sent for every character received after the buffer is

 

full.
