The Options Menu - Atari XM301 Owner's Manual

The log-on sequence can be a maximum of 79 characters long.
Surround the phone number by the | character, which you type by
holding
[Shift]
down and pressing = .
To pause 3 seconds, type:
[P],
To wait for a given character, type:
[Wx]
where
x
is the character you expect the other system to send. For
example, to wait until CompuServe finishes sending its USER ID:
prompt, you want to wait for a colon (:). Type:
[W:]
Enter control keys with a
A[Shift]
and the * key followed by the
ASCII equivalent of the key (the control code + 64). For example,
to send a Carriage Return, type:
AM
To send a Control C, type:
AC
Here again is the log-on sequence example for CompuServe:
1555-12121 [P] C[W:]00000,000AM[W:]ART-FELIXAM
THE OPTIONS MENU
The Options Menu lets you change communications attributes
so that your modem can reach systems that do not support the
standard default attributes of the XE Term program.
The Options Menu does not appear as a selection in the Functions
Menu because it will be used rarely.
To reach the Options Menu, follow these steps:
1. Go to the Functions Menu.
2. Press O.
The Options Menu appears.
XE Term has set the attributes listed in the Options Menu to their
most commonly used values.
