The HP 264x family of terminals all have a TRANSMIT in-
dicator (LED). On the 2620 terminal family, two asterisks in
the middle of the status line serve this function. The left
asterisk applies to port #1 and tl'ie right asterisk applies to
port #2. When an asterisk is present, the associated port is in
the transmit condition; when the asterisk is missing, the
associated port is not in the transmit condition.
This field specifies whether the transmit indicator should be
enabled or disabled and, if enabled, which RS-232C control
line it should reflect.
The value ((Of f" disables the TRANSMIT indicator altogether.
Other values specify a particular RS-232C control line to
monitor, where an asterisk reflects an active state of the line,
and no asterisk, the inactive state.
Off:
no indicator
DM:
RS-232C Data Mode (CM) or Data Set Ready (CC)
RR:
RS-232C Carrier Detect (CF) or Receiver Ready (RR)
Cs:
RS-232C Clear to Send (CS) (used in pt-to-pt only)
Line: Activity on the multipoint line (multipoint con-
figurations only). When the asterisk is present, the
CPU is polling or selecting the terminal; otherwise,
the terminal is not being polled or selected.
Default=Off
This field specifies the number of ((stop bits" you wish appen-
ded to each data character transmitted by the terminal
(received data is accepted with one or two stop bits regardless
of the setting of this field.)
