â– ASCII-based data communications terminal with an 80-column display
â– Scroll capability
â– Local echo
â– Serial port (EIA-232-D)
â– Data transmission speed should be from 1200 to 9600 baud
â– XON/XOFF flow control capability.
The ASCII-based terminal should be configured for byte serial data transmission
of eight-bit bytes with one start bit and one stop bit. Parity should be "none" and
the flow control should be "DC1/DC3."
Modem Requirements 10
