Overrides the “Emulation” value in the interface setup menu.
A numeric value for n may be specified in two different ways, with equivalent results: a single byte
with a value of 00 to 07 hex, or a single printable ASCII character “0” to “7” (30 to 37 hex).
If more than one emulation has been selected, ESC ESC ? will return to the previously selected
emulation. This is particularly useful when the previous emulation is unknown. Please beware that the
memory (stack) is only one level deep.
ESC ESC @ will return to the default emulation, as specified by the “Emulation” value in the interface
setup menu.
