===================================================



     THE FOLLOWING WILL PROVIDE IN MORE DETAIL A DESCRIPTION OF ITI (84)

PARAMETERS FOR DATAPAC 3101.





DESCRIPTION

-----------



INTERNATIONAL PAD PARAMETERS



1)ABILITY TO ESCAPE FROM DATA TRANSFER STATE*





     THE SETTING OF THIS PARAMETER ALLOWS THE USER TO INTERRUPT THE

COMMUNICATION

OF HIS OR HER APPLICAION (DATA TRANSFER MODE) AND INTERACT WITH THE

PAD (COMMAND MODE).  THE CHARACTER TO DO THIS IS CONTROL P. TO RETURN

TO DATA TRANSFER MODE, PRESS THE CARRIAGE RETURN OR ENTER A BLANK COMMNAND LINE

IF THE USER WANTS TO SEND A CONTROL P TO THE HOST, WITH THIS PARAMETER SET

TO ONE,

SIMPLY HIT CONTROL P TWICE AND THE SECOND CONTROL P WILL GO TO THE HOST AND

THE USER WILL REMAIN IN DATA TRANSFER MODE. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE USER DATA

FIELD IN THE CALL REQUEST COMMNAND LINE.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  1

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = ESCAPE NOT POSSIBLE

                         1 = ESCAPE IS POSSIBLE



     * NOTE:  ESCAPE FROM DATA TRANSFER MODE MAY ALSO BE POSSIBLE USING

THE BREAK SIGNAL IF PARAMETER SEVEN IS SET TO EIGHT.



2)ECHO*



     THIS PARAMETER INDICATES TO THE PAD WHETHER OR NOT THE TERMINAL

INPUT DATA MUST BE ECHOED.  THIS MAY BE REQUIRED IF THE USER"S TERMINAL

CANNOT ECHO BACK WHAT IS BEING ENTERED.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  2

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = NO ECHO

                         1 = ECHO

     * NOTE:  ECHO WILL ALSO BE AFFECTED BY THE SETTING OF PARAMETER 20.



3)SELECTION OF DATA FORWARDING SIGNAL



     THIS PARAMETER INDICATES TO THE PAD THE SET TO TERMINAL GENERATED

CHARACTERS OR CONDITIONS THAT WILL CAUSE DATA TO BE FORWARDED TO THE

DESTINATION.  FOR EXAMPLE (CR) CAN BE USED AS A DATA FORWARDING SIGNAL.

ON RECEIPT OF A (CR) FROM THE LOCAL DTE Y, THE PAD WILL FORWARD ALL

CHARACTERS IN IT'S BUFFER TO THE REMOTE END INCLUDING THE (CR).  IF

P13 IS SET TO 6,7,22 OR 23, A (LF) WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PACKET AND

WILL DELIMIT IT.  DATA IS ALSO FORWARDED WHEN THE BUFFER IS FULL WHETHER OR

NOT A FORWARDING CHARACTER IS RECEIVED.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  3

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 NO DATA FORWARDING SIGNAL

                         2 = FORWARD ON CARRIAGE RETURN

                         2 = CARRIAGE RETURN

                         126 = ALL CHARACTERS IN COLUMNS 0 AND 1 OF ASCII

                               TABLE AND THE CHARACTER DEL OF

                               INTERNATIONAL ALPHABET #5 (SEE APPENDIX 1)



4)SELECTION OF IDLE TIMER DELAY



     THIS PARAMETER IS USED TO DETERMINE THE IDLE TIMER LIMIT VALUE

WHEN DATA FORWARDING IS BASED ON TIMEOUTS. TO OPTIMIZE PACKETIZING OF

DATA, NO DATA FORWARDING SIGNAL NEED BE SPECIFIED.  THE PAD WILL THEN

PACKETIZE DATA BASED ON PACKET SIZE SPECIFIED (256 OR 128 CHARACTERS).

THE IDLE TIMER IS USED TO SEND ANY PACKETS THAT ARE NOT FULLY FILLED.  IF

IDLE TIMER IS ACTIVATED AND THE HOST REQUIRES THE (CR) TO INPUT DATA, IT STILL

MUST BE PROVIDED BEFORE THE DATA SENT IS ACCEPTED BY THE HOST.  THE IDLE

TIMER DOES NOT SEND ANY EMPTY PACKETS.





     PARAMETER NUMBER:  4

     POSSIBLE VALUES: 0 = NO DATA FORWARDING ON TIMEOUT IS REQUIRED

                  1-255 = INDICATES THE VALUE OF THE DELAY IN TWENTIES

                          OF A SECOND.  (IE. A VALUE OF 250

                          MAKES THE TIMER WAIT 10 SECONDS).



* NOTE:  WHEN EDITING IS ON (P15:1), THE IDLE TIMER IS INACTIVE.

IF THIS IS THE ONLY DATA FORWARDING CONDITION, TURNING THE EDITING

FUNCTION ON COULD CAUSE A USER TERMINAL TO HANG OR DATA NOT TO BE

FORWARDED.



5)AUXILIARY DEVICE CONTROL*



     THIS IS USED FOR FLOW CONTROL OF DATA COMING FROM EITHER A PC OR

 AUXILIARY DEVICE, EG., A PAPER TAPE MACHINE.  WHEN SET TO 1 IT

INDICATES TO THE PAD THAT THE DATA IS TO BE READ AN AUXILIARY I/O DEVICE.

CONNECTED TO THE TERMINAL.  THIS PARAMETER SET TO 2 INDICATES THAT THE

DATA IS COMING FROM AN INTELLIGENT DEVICE, IE. A PC. AND THAT THE PAD MUST

EXERT FLOW CONTROL DIFFERENTLY.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  5

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = NO USE OF X-ON/X-OFF

                         1 = USE OF X-ON/X-OFF FOR AUXILIARY DEVICES

                         2 = USE OF X-ON/X-OFF FOR INTELLIGENT TERMINALS



     * NOTE:  A VALUE OF 2 IS RECOMMENDED FOR PC'S



6)SUPPRESS NETWORK MESSAGES



     THIS PARAMETER INDICATES THE PAD WHETHER OR NOT NETWORK GENERATED

MESSAGES ARE TO BE TRANSMITTED TO THE TERMINAL.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  6

      POSSIBLE VALUES    0 = SUPPRESS MESSAGES

                         1 = TRANSMIT MESSAGES

                         5 = PAD PROMPT (*) FOLLOWS DATAPAC SERVICE SIGNALS

SIGNAL THAT IS RECEIVED FROM THE TERMINAL WHILE THE TERMINAL IS IN DATA

TRANSFER STATE.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  7

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = NOTHING (REMAIN IN DATA TRANSFER MODE)

                         1 = INTERRUPT (REMAIN IN DATA TRANSFER MODE)

                         2 = RESET (REMAIN IN DATA TRANSFER MODE)

                         4 = SEND AN "INDICATION OF BREAK" MESSAGE TO

                             THE PACKET MODE DTE (REMAIN IN DATA TRANSFER

                             MODE)

                         8 = ESCAPE FROM DATA TRANSFER MODE, (IE, ENTER

                             COMMAND MODE)

                        16 = DISCARD OUTPUT TO TERMINAL ACTIVATE

                             PARAMETER 8 (P8:1) (REMAIN IN DATA

                             TRANSFER MODE)

                        21 = A COMBINATION OF 1,4 AND 16





     * NOTE:  THE BREAK SIGNAL IS IGNORED IF THE VIRTUAL CIRCUIT IS NOT

ESTABLISHED.WHILE IN COMMAND STATE.  THE BREAK SIGNAL WILL DELETE THE

CURRENT LINE.



1 THE VALID VALUES FOR P 7 ARE 0,1,2,8 AND 21.



8)DISCARD OUTPUT



     THIS PARAMETER IS USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH PARAMETER 7.  DEPENDING

UPON THE BREAK PROCEDURE SELECTED, THIS PARAMETER MAY BE SET BY THE PAD

WHEN THE TERMINAL USER REQUESTS THAT TERMINAL DATA BE DISCARDED. THIS

PARAMETER MUST THEN BE RESET BY THE DESTINATION COMPUTER TO ALLOW NORMAL

DELIVERY.  THE PAD WILL DISCARD ALL PACKETS DESTINED FOR THE TERMINAL

FROM THE TIME THE PAD SETS THIS PARAMETER (IE, IT RECEIVES A BREAK SIGNAL

WHEN PARAMETER 7 IS SET TO 21) TO THE TIME THE PARAMETER IS RESET BY THE

DESTINATION.  IT CAN ONLY BE RESET BY THE DESTINATION.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  8

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = NORMAL DELIVERY OF OUTPUT TO TERMINAL

                         1 = DISCARD OUTPUT TO TERMINAL





9)PADDING AFTER CARRIAGE RETURN



    THIS PARAMETER IS USED TO SPECIFY THE NUMBER OF PADDING CHARACTERS TO

BE INSERTED BY THE PAD FOLLOWING A CR R TRANSMITTED TO THE TERMINAL.

PADDING ALLOWS TIME FOR THE CARRIAGE TO RETURN ON MECHANICAL PRINTING DEVICES



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  9

      POSSIBLE VALUES:   0 = 2 PADDING CHARACTERS WILL BE INSERTED AT 110 BPS

                               AND 4 PADDING CHARACTERS WILL BE INSERTED AT

                               HIGHER SPEEDS, IN COMMAND MODE ONLY.

                               (NO PADDING IS DONE IN DATA TRANSFER MODE)

                     1-255 = THE NUMBER OF PADDING CHARACTERS TO BE

                             INSERTED IN BOTH DATA TRANSFER AND COMMAND

                             MODE.

10)LINE FOLDING



     THIS PARAMETER INDICATES THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF PRINTABLE CHARACTERS

THAT CAN BE DISPLAYED ON THE TERMINAL BEFORE THE PAD MUST SEND A

FORMAT EFFECTOR (IE.,).  THIS PERMITS MORE DATA TO BE

TRANSMITTED IN ONE PACKET WHILE STILL LETTING THE USER PRINT OUT

MORE THAN ONE LINE, IE., PRINTING OUT FORMS.



11)TRANSMISSION SPEED (READ ONLY)



     THIS PARAMETER IS SET BY THE PAD AS A RESULT OF TRANSMISSION SPEED

 DETECTION IF THE TERMINAL ACCESSES AN AUTOBAUD PORT.  WHEN A PRIVATE

PORT WITH FIXED SPEED IS USED, THIS PARAMETER IS SET BASED ON THE

 PRE-STORED INFORMATION SELECTED AT SUBSCRIPTION TIME.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  11

      POSSIBLE VALUES:    0 = 110 BPS

                          2 = 300 BPS

                          3 = 1200 BPS

                          4 = 2400 BPS



12)FLOW CONTROL



     THIS PARAMETER ALLOWS THE TERMINAL USER TO SIGNAL THE PAD THAT THE

TERMINAL CANNOT RECEIVE ANY MORE DATA, IE. TO FLOW CONTROL DATA COMING

FROM THE NETWORK.  WHEN IT IS SET TO 1, THE TERMINAL USER CAN REQUEST

THAT THE PAD STOP SENDING DATA BY TRANSMITTING A "CONTROL S".  THE

PAD THEN SUSPENDS TRANSMISSION OF DATA UNTIL A "CONTROL Q" IS RECEIVED.



      PARAMETER NUMBER:  12

      POSSIBLE VALUES:    0 = NO USE OF X-ON/X-OFF FOR FLOW CONTROL

                          1 = USE X-ON/X-OFF FOR FLOW CONTROL

GENERAL NOTES ABOUT PARAMETERS



-------------------------------



     THE SETTING OF ANY OF PARAMETERS 16(118), 17(119), OR 18(120) TO

A NON-ZERO VALUE WILL ALSO SET PARAMETER 15 TO 1 WHEN PARAMETER 4 IS ZERO.

IN THE 1984 SOFTWARE LEVEL, SETTING BOTH EDITING (P15) IS OFF.  THIS

OPERATION IS ACCORDING TO CCITT 1984 STANDARDS.



     IF THE CHARACTER CHOSEN FOR A CERTAIN PARAMETER HAS ALREADY BEEN

SELECTED TO BE USED WITH ANOTHER PARAMETER, THEN THE FUNCTION WITH THE

HIGHEST PRIORITY IS SELECTED UPON RECEIPT OF THE CHARACTER.  THIS PRIORITY

SCHEME IS AS FOLLOWS:



     1) ESCAPE FROM COMMAND STATE

     2) FLOW CONTROL

     3) LINE DISPLAY

     4) LINE DELETE

     5) CHARACTER DELETE

     6) PACKET FORWARDING



ALL OF THE ABOVE PARAMETERS ARE CHANGEABLE BY THE USER.  HOWEVER, IT

SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE HOST COMPUTER CAN ALSO CHANGE THESE PARAMETERS.
