CANPAC

Mode: Packet

Parameters:

CANPAC
changes the CANCEL-PACKET input editing command character.
n
The parameter
is the ASCII code for the character you want to type in order to cancel an input
packet.
You can enter the code in either hex or decimal.
When you cancel a packet in Converse Mode, the line is terminated with a <BACKSLASH> charac-
ter and a new line.
You can only cancel the packet that is currently being entered.
Once you have typed the send-packet character, or waited
packet cannot be canceled even if it has not been transmitted.
Like other input editing features, packet cancellation is disabled in Transparent Mode.
The CANCEL-PACKET character also cancels the display output in Command Mode. If you are in
Command Mode and type the CANCEL-PACKET character, any characters that would be typed on
the screen (except those echoed) are "thrown away" by the PK-232.
Typing the cancel-output character a second time restores normal output.
To see how this works, type DISPLAY, then type a <CTRL-Y>.
The command list display will stop. You won't see any response from the PK-232 to commands.
To verify that the display is back to normal, type
Use the CANCL-DISPLAY feature if you inadvertently do something that causes the PK-232 to gen-
erate large amounts of output to the terminal, such as giving the DISPLAY command or setting
TRACE

If you are in Converse or Transparent Mode and want to cancel display output, you must exit
to Command Mode and then type the CANCEL-PACKET character.
