INTRODUCTION
The HP 2624A is def,ligned so the various terminal
characteristics can be configured quickly and easily
through the use of menus. These configuration menus can
be displayed on the screen and their content altered and
saved (in non-volatile memory) through a few simple
keystrokes.
The content of these menus may also be altered from a
program executing in a host computer through the use of
escape sequences.
The Configuration Function Keys
1b gain access to the configuration menus through the
keyboard, use the following keystroke sequence:

Each function key, when pressed, causes a particular
configuration menu to appear on the screen and redefines
the function keys to a set offunctions that will assist you in
manipulating the various parameters within the menu.
The Configuration Menus
The various configuration menus can be summarized as
shown in table 2-1.
The port! and port2 menus are described in Section VII of
this manual.
The remainder of this section describes first how to change
the terminal configuration menu from the keyboard and
then how to do it programmatically .
THE TERMINAL CONFIGURATION MENU
When you press the
~term1
nlSl config" (m)
function key,
the menu and function key display shown in figure 2-1
appear on the screen. Note that the menu as shown in
figure 2-1 contains the default settings for all the fields. If
you had previously changed the content of any of the fields
and then saved the menu in non-volatile memory, the
menu would appear on the screen as you had configured it.
