Defining Selected Areas
Start selected area (SSA) and end selected area (ESA) con-
trol functions select which characters on the current page
the wireless station can send to the host. SSA and ESA are
8-bit C-1 control characters that can also be coded as 7-bit
escape sequences. The following conditions apply to SSA
and ESA:
" They work only when SATM is reset.
" If the wireless station receives ESA before SSA, it
ignores ESA.
