inet_addr
This Annex parameter defines the RA 6300’s IP address. This 32-bit
address contains four 8-bit fields separated by periods. Each field contains
a number ranging from 0 to 255 or a hexadecimal number. The IP address
always displays in decimal notation. This parameter has no default.
input _flow_control
This asynchronous port parameter specifies the method of flow control
for input received from a device connected to an asynchronous port.
Table C-21 describes the valid options; the default is bell.
Table C-21. Valid Options for the input_flow_control Parameter
Option Description
bell The RA 6300 rings the terminal bell (sends ^G ) when its input
buffer is full.
eia Flow control is delegated to a lower level (e.g., a parallel port).
The control_lines parameter must be set to flow control or
both, and the device must be wired appropriately.
start/stop Designates flow control by recognizing xon and xoff characters.
This action is independent of the control_lines parameter
setting.
none Disables flow control; characters are lost if the buffers overflow.
