?Previously Selected Emulation

@Default Emulation

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.

This chapter describes TTY emulation. If a different interface is selected, the control codes and escape sequences described in this chapter will no longer be applicable.

Example: The following escape sequences will select Printek emulation, load form one, and then return to the previous emulation.
