Setup Menus Typeahead Enabled Factory default: Unselected When TeemTalk is connected to an HP 3000, you normally have to wait for the host to send a prompt before you can enter new data at the keyboard, otherwise the data is ignored. Selecting this option will enable you to type continuously without waiting for the prompt. Data is stored in the keyboard buffer and each time TeemTalk receives a prompt it will send a line of data to the host. Block mode also supports typeahead. Destructive Backspace Factory default: Unselected The setting of this option determines whether or not pressing the Backspace key will cause characters to be deleted. Block Terminator Factory default: ^^ (i.e. RS) This option specifies the ASCII character sent to the host to indicate the end of a data block transmission. To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text box and type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value of the ASCII character. For example, the ASCII character RS can be entered by typing the characters ^ and ^, representing the keys Ctrl + ^ which, when pressed together would generate the RS code. The decimal value of the character would be entered as 30. Refer to the ASCII character table in the Character Sets appendix in the Programmer's Guide for code and decimal references. Field Separator Factory default: ^_ (i.e. US) This option specifies the ASCII character used to indicate the end of each protected field (except the last) that is sent in Edit Mode. To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text window and type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value of the ASCII character. For example, the ASCII character US can be entered by typing the characters ^ and _, representing the keys Ctrl + _ which, when pressed together would generate the US code. The decimal value of the character would be entered as 31. Refer to the ASCII character table in the Character Sets appendix in the Programmer's Guide for code and decimal references. 8-48
