<ASC> . . . <ASC>
The fourth parameter is optional and defaults to
13, the decimal equivalent of the single ASCII character,
carriage return.
If included, the parameter may be the decimal equiva
lent(s) of one or two ASCII characters in the range 0 to
127.This becomesthe output terminator. The value 0
is not transmitted and will terminate the string. If a
parameter follows, the semicolon must always be in
cluded, even when this parameter is omitted. If the fifth
parameter is specified, this fourth parameter must con
sist of two characters, or the second character must be
specified as null using the semicolon.
H
<ASC>
The fifth parameter is optional and, if omitted, assumes
its default value 0 (no output initiator character). If
included, it is the decimal equivalent of a single charac
ter which becomesthe output initiator character. The
parameter may be the decimal equivalent of any ASCII
character in the range 0 to 127. The parameter is fol
lowed by a colon.

The Set Extended Output and Handshake
Mode Instruction, ESC . N
DESCWPHUN The set extended output and handshake mode instruc
tion, ESC . N, establishes parameters for the plotter's communication
format.
USES The instruction is used to specify an intercharacter delay in
all handshake modes, the immediate response string for enquire/
acknowledge handshake, or the Xoff trigger character(s) for the Xon
Xoffhandshake.
SYNTAX
. N [ (<DEC>) ; (<ASC>(; . . .<ASC>))
1;
DEFAULT
. N : No intercharacter delay and no Xoff trigger char
acter or immediate response string.
EXPLANATIONA colon must be used following the last parameter.
Use of the instruction without parameters is equivalent to ESC . N:
(see DEFAULT).
