To save the current X.3 parameter configuration to nonvolatile memory, escape to command mode and enter AT&W
(see Escaping to AT Command Mode in Establishing an X.25 Session). Entering AT&W saves the port and current session configuration as well as the X.3 parameters. The factory X.3 configuration can be restored by entering AT&F. This command also restores port and current session configuration.
CCITT specifies two standard profiles for the X.3 parameter set. The transparent profile is recommended for applications such as file transfers. The transparent profile essentially disables most of the PAD features so that the file can be transferred completely unaltered (no padding, line feed insertion, flow control characters, or service signal messages when transmitted to the DTE). The simple profile is an alternative configuration to the TA’ s default configuration for simple interactive terminal applications. Table
