F6 = TNC to Pacterm: STOP or START (Default)
Pressing F6 (from either the MAIN Menu or the Terminal Screen) switches
between the following two options for data-flow from the TNC to Pacterm:
1. START = Request that data be sent from the TNC to Pacterm, beginning with
any data previously held in the TNC while data-flow from the TNC was
STOPPED.
2. STOP = Do not send data from the TNC to Pacterm; instead, hold it for send-
ing when data-flow from the TNC is enabled (START).
+ Hint: While the TNC is STOPPED from sending to Pacterm, data are saved in
the TNC in a temporary buffer, until the buffer is full. When this buffer is full,
your station will give a BUSY signal to other stations that try to connect.
The status of this command (START or STOP) is shown on the Status Line.
Technical note: START is a request for the TNC to send any new data to Pacterm.
Before new data will actually be sent to Pacterm, however, Pacterm must be able to
receive material (RTS is ON), as indicated by RTS shown on the Status Line. While
it is SAVING the contents of the Holding Buffer, for example, Pacterm turns RTS
OFF automatically, so new material from the TNC will not be lost during the saving
operation.
Commands: Output Control
Pacterm provides the following output controls:
•
PRINT data as it is shown in the Viewing area of the Terminal Screen.
•
SAVE data shown in the Viewing area of the Terminal Screen in a
Holding Buffer, whose contents can later be saved as a file.
•
SEND a copy of a file to the TNC.
Commands: Output Control Pacterm v 2.0
