Setting TTY Options

The following options are sticky—the effects continue until the system is rebooted or until the 
options are changed.

[-]fastbaud

Alter the baud rate tables to permit the use of data rates that are beyond the 
range supported by the operating system. See fastbaud Data Rate Mapping, on 
page 3-11.

[-]rtspace

Enable [disable] RTS hardware input flow control, so RTS drops to pause 
remote transmission.

[-]ctspace

Enable [disable] CTS hardware output flow control, so local transmission 
pauses when CTS drops.

[-]dsrpace

Enable [disable] DSR hardware output flow control, so local transmission 
pauses when DSR drops.

[-]dcdpace

Enable [disable] DCD hardware output flow control, so local transmission 
pauses when DCD drops.

[-]dtrpace

Enable [disable] DTR hardware input flow control, so DTR drops to pause 
remote transmission.

[-]forcedcd

Disable [re-enable] carrier sense, so the TTY may be opened and used even 
when carrier is not present.

startc 

c

Sets the XON flow control character. The character may be given as a decimal, 
octal or hexadecimal number. Octal numbers are recognized by the presence of 
a leading zero, and hexadecimal numbers are denoted by a leading "0x". For 
example, the standard XON character, <CTRL-Q>, can be entered as "17" 
(decimal), "021" (octal) or "0x11" (hexadecimal).

stopc 

c

Sets the XOFF flow control character. The character may be given as a decimal, 
octal, or hexadecimal number (see startc, above, for format of octal and 
hexadecimal numbers).

astartc 

c

Sets auxiliary XON flow control character. The character may be given as a 
decimal, octal, or hexadecimal number (see startc, above, for format of octal 
and hexadecimal numbers).

astopc 

c

Sets auxiliary XOFF flow control character. The character may be given as a 
decimal, octal, or hexadecimal number (see startc, above, for format of octal 
and hexadecimal numbers). 

[-]aixon

Enables auxiliary flow control, so that two unique characters are used for XON 
and XOFF. If both XOFF characters are received, transmission will not resume 
until both XON characters are received.

maxcps 

n

Sets the maximum Characters Per Second (CPS) rate at which characters are 
output to the transparent print device. The rate chosen should be just below the 
average print speed. If the number is too low, printer speed will be reduced. If 
the number is too high, the printer will resort to flow control, and user entry on 
the terminal will be correspondingly impaired. Default is 100 CPS.

maxchar 

n

Sets the maximum number of transparent print characters the driver will place 
in the output queue. Reducing this number increases system overhead; 
increasing this number delays operator keystroke echo times when the 
transparent printer is in use. Default is 50 characters.

bufsize 

n

Sets the driver’s estimate of the size of the transparent printer’s input buffer. 
After a period of inactivity, the driver bursts this many characters to the 
transparent printer before reducing to the maxcps rate selected above. Default is 
100 characters.
