When the INIT TABS parameter (Table 2-3) is set to off, no tab stops are set
when you turn on the terminal. When the INIT TABS parameter is set to on, the
terminal activates the tab stops last saved in nonvolatile memory—by default
these are positioned every eight columns across the screen, starting at column
nine.
You can clear and set tab stops from the tabs setup level ([re]) and save the
changes in nonvolatile memory by choosing the SAVE ALL option when you
exit setup mode.
Tabs Setup Level
On the tabs setup level screen, the terminal's current tab stops are indicated by
uppercase T's displayed along a line of periods that mark each column position.
A tab stop in columns 1 through 78 is shown as a T in the upper line of
periods.
A tab stop in columns 79 through 132 is shown as a T in the lower line of
periods.
You can easily determine where tabs are set by moving the cursor across the line
and reading the column number displayed in the second instruction line at the
top of the screen.
Clear and set tabs anywhere on the line, as follows:
To move the cursor across the line, press [•] ( [ - • [ ) or [<\ (\ <-\)
To either clear or set (toggle) an individual tab stop at the cursor position,
press | SPACEBAR[
To clear all tabs, press | H O M E ]
To restore all default tabs, press | BACKSPACE[
In the answerback setup level ( [ F 7 ] ) you can program a message of up to 20
characters to identify the terminal to the computer. Enter the message at the
cursor position. Correct errors by pressing | BACKSPACE] to delete characters or
| H O M E 1 to clear the message.
The answerback message shares approximately 350 bytes of nonvolatile
memory with key redefinitions and function key labels. To save the message in
nonvolatile memory, exit setup mode with the SAVE ALL option.
The message is sent to the computer when the terminal receives an ASCII ENQ
code (CTRL E) and
• The ANSWERBACK MODE parameter (Table 2-2) is set to on
• The SEND ACK parameter (Table 2-3) is set to on
