Setup Menus
Typeahead Enabled
Factory default: Unselected
When TeemTalk is connected to an HP 3000, you normally have to wait for the host to
send a prompt before you can enter new data at the keyboard, otherwise the data is
ignored. Selecting this option will enable you to type continuously without waiting for
the prompt. Data is stored in the keyboard buffer and each time TeemTalk receives a
prompt it will send a line of data to the host. Block mode also supports typeahead.
Destructive Backspace
Factory default: Unselected
The setting of this option determines whether or not pressing the Backspace key will
cause characters to be deleted.
Block Terminator
Factory default: ^^ (i.e. RS)
This option specifies the ASCII character sent to the host to indicate the end of a data
block transmission.
To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text box and
type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value
of the ASCII character.
For example, the ASCII character RS can be entered by typing the characters ^ and ^,
representing the keys Ctrl + ^ which, when pressed together would generate the RS
code. The decimal value of the character would be entered as 30.
Refer to the ASCII character table in the Character Sets appendix in the Programmer's
Guide for code and decimal references.
Field Separator
Factory default: ^_ (i.e. US)
This option specifies the ASCII character used to indicate the end of each protected
field (except the last) that is sent in Edit Mode.
To change the current definition, delete the definition displayed in the text window and
type in the new one, either as the control key character equivalent or the decimal value
of the ASCII character.
For example, the ASCII character US can be entered by typing the characters ^ and _,
representing the keys Ctrl + _ which, when pressed together would generate the US
code. The decimal value of the character would be entered as 31. Refer to the ASCII
character table in the Character Sets appendix in the Programmer's Guide for code
and decimal references.
