270 Macintosh
User's
Handbook
The Repeat (Rpt.) Controls item allows you to determine
whether the control characters will repeat if the keys are
pressed and held. This option
is
not available if Auto Repeat
is
not selected. Control characters are non-printing characters
such as Return and Tab.
Notice, in figure 8.5,
that
the Transparent item
is
dimmed.
This item
is
only available with the TTY terminal mode. When
it
is
selected, the non-printing characters such as Backspace
(BS), Carriage Return (CR),
and
Line Feed (LF) will appear as
printed characters upon the MacTerminal document.
When all Terminal Settings have been made to the desired
specifications, select
OK
and
the window will disappear with
the new conditions saved. Selecting Cancel here will remove
the window with the
new
conditions not saved.
COMPATIBILITY
The next item in the Settings menu
is
Compatibility. The
window shown in figure
8.
7 will appear when the Compatibil-
ity item
is
selected from the Setting menu. These settings
determine the format of the
data
stream flowing to and from
the modem. Each one
of
these settings should be mutually
agreed upon by both the local and remote computer in order
to
insure coherent communications.
The
term
Baud
Rate
has appeared before in this chapter.
The baud rate which should be selected for each application
depends upon the needs and capabilities of the modems and the
computers involved in the communications link. Select 300
baud for our application with the Hayes modem.
The
1200
baud choice
is
the default value.
