PK-88 OPERATING MANUAL
REDISPLA 'n'
Parameters:
'n' - 0 to $7F (0 to 127 decimal) specifies an ASCII character code.
REDISPLA changes the redisplay-line input editing character.
Parameter 'n' is the numeric ASCII code for the character to use when you want to
re-display the current input line. You can enter the code in either hexadecimal or
decimal numbers.
Type the REDISPLA character to redisplay a line you've just typed. The following
things happen:
•
Type-in flow control is temporarily turned off (if it had been active). Any
incoming packets that are pending are displayed.
•
A <BACKSLASH> is appended to the line you've just typed and the
line is shown below it. Only the final form of the line is shown
if you have deleted or changed any characters.
You can now continue typing where you left off.
Use the REDISPLA command to see a 'clean' copy of your input if you are using a
printing terminal and you have deleted characters. Use the REDISPLA command if a
packet is received while you're typing a message in Converse Mode. You can see the
incoming message before you send your packet without canceling your input.
If BKONDEL is set OFF, deletions are designated with <BACKSLASH> characters, rather
than by trying to correct the input line display. The redisplayped line is the
corrected text.
RELINK ON|OFF
Parameters:
ON -
In AX.25 Versions 1 and 2, the PK-88 will automatically try to reconnect the
distant station after the link has timed out on retries.
OFF -
The PK-88 will not attempt to re-establish the failed link.
When RELINK is ON, the PK-88 attempts to reconnect by sending SABM frames (Connect
Requests) after retrying out. When RELINK is OFF, the PK-88 forces a disconnect by
sending a DISC frame (Disconnect Command) after retrying out.
Set RELINK to OFF when using the PK-88 with host computer applications, computer-based
message systems and electronic mail programs.
Please refer to the related CHECK command.
