F10 = Disconnect and EXIT to DOS
From either the MAIN Menu Screen or the Terminal Screen, press F10 to
disconnect from a current connection that may have been established by the
TNC, EXIT Pacterm and go to DOS.
Pressing F10 sends the command sequence “CTRL+C, CTRL+C, CTRL+C, D”
to the TNC before exiting to DOS. The sequence of three CTRL+Cs in quick
succession changes the TNC to Command Mode if it was not already in Com-
mand Mode, and the D is a short form of the DISCONNECT command.
Caution:
If there is no connection at the time, the TNC will report this fact, but
you will not see this report at the time, since you will EXIT Pacterm immediately.
You may see this message (“Can’t disconnect...”) when you start Pacterm again,
since it will have been stored in the TNC’s temporary buffer, waiting to be sent at
the beginning of a new Pacterm session.

Hint:
If your TNC is turned OFF when you press F10, your computer may freeze
up when these commands are sent by Pacterm. Try turning the TNC back ON and
using F10 again to EXIT. If there is no response, just reboot your computer and
start another Pacterm session.
ESC or CTRL+C (on Main Menu Only) = EXIT to DOS
From the MAIN Menu, you can EXIT directly to DOS by pressing the ESC key
or by pressing the CTRL+C key combination.
When you are on the Terminal Screen, you
cannot
EXIT to DOS by pressing
ESC or CTRL+C. This is because at this time these are legal characters that can
be sent to the TNC, so they will just be added to the data stream. In Transparent
mode, each of these control characters will display as a graphic character in the
data shown on the Terminal Screen.
+
Hint:
From the Terminal Screen, you may press F10 to Disconnect and EXIT to
DOS or use F1 to go to the MAIN Menu, from where you can use ESC,
CTRL+C, or F10, to EXIT to DOS.
