In this mode, a line-feed command stops the scrolling alphanumeric message if the cursor is on the top line when this command is sent. Vertical Scroll Display Control Mode (DC2) If the cursor is on the top line, it is moved to the complementary position on the bottom line. If the cursor position is on the bottom line, all characters on that line are moved to the top line, the bottom Appendix A. Input/output device commands A-5
