The B160 Terminal
The B160/B162 terminal Is a self-contained operator/computer acces
sible, remote video display terminal designed for compabiiity with
the DEC hardware and ADMINS software. The B160/B162 offers com
municative cursor keys with all keyboard key codes being transmittabla
In addition, the B160/B162 offers blink and editing modes of
operation with a data transfer rate from 75 to 19,200 baud, as well as
16 special function keys.
The function keys for the B160/B162 transmit special codes and also
have special legends engraved on the key caps. See the ASCII code
chart and the keyboard layout drawing on the following pages for
reference to these features.
The bell in the B160/B162 terminals will not sound on the 72nd char
acter position and can only be activated by a receipt of a CONTROL G
command from either the I/O port or the keyboard.
The B160/B162 terminals are intended to operate in a full duplex or
conversational mode only. The terminals will, however, operate in
half duplex, block, or local modes, but will exhibit behaviorthat,
from an operator's point of view, could be interpreted as a terminal
failure. For example, the cursor movement keys as well as other keys
on the 16-key pad will not act on the display when in any of these
modes. These keys do not produce a code that the terminal itself acts
upon, but transmits the codes to a computer, from which they are
returned to the terminal to be displayed. Only in full duplex is the
terminal capable of receiving and displaying in this fashion.
