3.2.2.13 U. K./U.S. Character Set
This feature determines whether the VISUAL 100 will operate with a United States or
United Kingdom character set. The only difference between the two sets is one character.
When the U.S. set is enabled, the CT] key (shifted) and octal code 043 will cause display
of the# character. When the U.K. set is enabled, the CT] key (shifted) and octal code
043 will cause display of the £character.
U.S./U. K. character set is also host computer selectable, see Section 5.3.2.9.
3.2.2.14 Autowrap
This feature determines whether the cursor will automatically advance to the first position
of the next line upon entering a character into the last position of the current line. When
enabled, the cursor will wraparound automatically and enter the character on the first
position of the new line. When disabled, the cursor will remain in the last column and
any successive characters entered will overlay the last character on the line.
Autowrap may also be selected by the host computer, see Section 5.3. 2.12.
3.2.2.15 New Line
When enabled, the New Line feature will cause the RETURN key to generate the CR and
LF codes, and a received LF causes a new line function to be performed. When disabled,
the RETURN key generates only the CR code, and a received LF causes only a line feed
to be performed.
New Line may also be selected by the host computer, see Section 5.3.2.12.
3.2.2.16 Local Echo
The Local Echo feature provides for an automatic "echoing" of transmitted data back to
the screen. If an echoing of transmitted data is not desired, or the host computer or modem
provides an echo, this feature should be disabled.
Local Echo may also be selected by the host computer, see Section 5.3.2.12.
3.2.2.17 Parity .
The Parity feature provides a check for errors in host transmitted data. When this feature
is enabled, the VISUAL 100 will check received data for correct parity (odd or even) and
generate parity on transmitted data. If a character is received with incorrect parity, a
[II\\\\) will be placed on the screen in place .of the error character.
