6 . 6. 1 Terminal type
The terminal type can be ANSI, VT100/VT220 or TTY.
The ANSI and VT100/VT220 options give you a graphical presentation of the menus,
whereas TTY is used where a dumb device such as a Teletype is used for configuration and
data presentation. The screen displays for these terminal types are shown in Section 5.
6 . 6. 2 Baud rate
The baud rates supported are 2400, 4800, 9600 and 19200 baud.
6 . 6. 3 Parity
Parity may be set to NONE, ODD or EVEN.
6 . 6. 4 Data bits
The number of data bits may be 7 or 8 .
6 . 6. 5 Stop bits
The number of stop bits may be 1 or 2 .
6 . 6. 6 Modem support
Modem support causes you to be logged-out if the Ready-to-send (RTS) signal is dropped
on the terminal port. This means that if the modem goes off-line your current logon session
is terminated, preventing unauthorised access to the software. The RTS line needs to be
driven for V.24 operation if modem support is on, so we recommend using a fully configured
25-way cable. Section 4 includes details of cable layouts.
