This selection indicates the role that the Compose key will play. The explanation of
choices is the same as for the Alt Key (left) selection, which is discussed earlier in this
section.

EIA (Aux) Parity Check:
[On,
Off
]
Choose whether the parity bit will be checked. When parity check is on and the parity
bit received is inconsistent with the data received, indicating an error in
communications, an asterisk (*) 2Ah is displayed instead of the character.

EIA (Aux) Recv:
[No Protocol
Xon-Xoff (XPC),
Xany-Xoff (XPC)
, DTR (DSR),
Xany-Xoff/DTR (DSR)]
Choose the form of flow control for data received from the primary or secondary host.
Software flow control uses
Xon-Xoff D
C1 (11h) and DC3 (13h).
XPC
is used by “Scan
Code” mode because it uses DC1 and DC3 as data.
Xany-Xoff (XPC)
is similar to
Xon-Xoff, except that any character transmitted to the host is treated as an Xon, so
data from the terminal is buffered, rather than being sent to the host.
DTR (DSR
for
Aux
)
relies on the hardware signal DTR or DSR (pin 20 or pin 6) from the device.
Xany-Xoff/DTR (DSR)
uses software and hardware flow control
.
Flow control is recommended to protect against data loss.
