    							TL-130400-1001Record Code AQ:17.4 Record Code AQ, Figure 17.4, provides a list of parameters
    Data Systemapplied to the remote end of a data call. These parameters
    Asynchronous Porttemporarily override the pre-existing parameters of the remote
    Set/Read Listend of a data call while a data call is connected to/from the port
    specified on this record code. This allows the port specified in
    this record code to control the configuration of its call partner on
    both incoming and outgoing data calls. The remote port may be
    reconfigured while the call is set up. It is restored to the original
    configuration when the call is disconnected.
    This option is normally implemented for host ports; however, any
    asynchronous or synchronous (X.25) port can be assigned this
    record code. The following rules apply for this record code:
    l Any port defined in columns 
    12-l 6 of this record code must
    have an entry on Record Code CP.
    l If the port is asynchronous, it requires an entry on Record
    Code AP.
    l If the port does not reconfigure the port at the remote end, an
    entry on this record code is not needed.
    The values assigned to the options defined on this record code
    depend on the requirements of the device which is attached to
    the port. For parameters that do not need reconfiguration
    at call setup, enter a dash in the field.

    Characterto stop the flow of data.
    (ASCII Value)-This parameter specifies the character that
    will be received to indicate that the terminal
    user wants to enter command mode.
    0 = escape not allowed
    1 = DLE character initiates escape
    2-l 27 = decimal representation of selected
    ASCII character (see ASCII character set
    table )
    -This is X.3 parameter 1.
    20PAD Echo
    0 = no echoEnter 1 if PAD echo is provided.
    1 = echo allowed-This field determines the default value of
    echo. If this parameter is enabled, then echo
    will occur in data transfer mode; otherwise, no
    echoing will occur in data transfer mode.
    Generally, this field should be set to N for full
    duplex and Y for half duplex. If station
    equipment displays two of each character, set
    this field to N. If station equipment does not
    display information that is keyed in, then try
    setting this field to Y.
    -PAD echo provides for all input characters
    to be echoed back to the device attached
    during the data transfer mode
    -This is applied only to full-duplex devices.
    -This is X.3 parameter 2.

    characters buffered up to that point will be
    forwarded in a packet.
    -Zero disables this timer.
    -If this interval is exceeded, the timeout
    causes the forwarding of a data packet.
    -The time is selected in 
    50-ms increments,
    so a selection of 2 = 100 ms.

    device flow control.

    1, the PAD can
    flow control the device.
    -Flow control is used when the PAD cannot
    process data fast enough or when the amount
    of characters buffered is too great (due to the
    transmission condition or network slow-
    down).

    Carriage Return inserted-Printing devices need sufficient time for the
    mechanism to perform the carriage return.
    -This parameter sets the number of null
    characters to wait before continuing to send
    any other characters.
    NOTE: There are no real characters sent.
    The 
    APMSPM waits the amount of time it
    would take to transmit those characters.

    . . .folding. This determines the number of
    of characters percharacters to transmit before an automatic
    linecarriage return/line feed is sent. This causes
    long lines to fold or wrap to the next line. If
    . ._this field is set at 0, this function is disabled.
    A backspace will cause the internal counter to
    be decremented by one for each backspace
    character received, and carriage return will
    reset the counter. This field is normally set to
    0 because most station equipment does this
    automatically. Otherwise, standard line
    lengths are 80 or 132 characters.
    -This is X.3 parameter 10.

    Control0 = PAD flowIf selected, this field determines that the APM
    control not allowedwill send a signal when the device attached to
    1 = PAD flow
    it is temporarily unable to receive more data.
    control allowed-This field sets the default value of flow
    control.
    -If this field is marked 
    1, the device and/or
    user of the device can flow control the PAD.
    This disallows transmission of control-S and
    control-Q.
    -If this field is marked 0, the device cannot
    flow control the PAD. However, the device
    can transmit flow control characters through
    the network.
    -Control-S stops the PAD and control-Q
    ends flow control.
    This is commonly done by printers and users
    that get behind and need to catch up.
    -This is X.3 parameter 12.
    36Line Feed After 0This option allows automatic insertion of a line
    Carriage Return 1feed after any carriage return is transmitted.

    6an LF character into the transmission stream.

    feed padding. It is the amount of null
    characters after a line feed is sent to a device
    that the switch will pause before sending
    additional data. Normally, the carriage return
    padding field is put in first. If terminals are still
    losing information at the beginning of each
    line, the value in this field is increased.
    -This is X.3 parameter 14.
    39Line Editing0or
    1This option allows corrections to be made,
    during the data transfer mode, to data
    previously inputted by the user.
    -The parameter specifies the default mode of
    the editing function that the PAD performs.
    -If this parameter is enabled, the PAD will
    process editing characters. This only applies
    to data transfer mode. Editing will always be
    enabled 
    (1) for command mode on terminals.
    If this field is enabled, timers should be turned
    off and the forwarding condition should be set
    to transmit on carriage return. If this field is
    disabled, all editing characters (LF, BS, etc.)
    are lost in data transfer mode.
    0= editing not enabled during data transfer
    1 = editing enabled during data transfer
    -This is X.3 parameter 15.
