The

com.conf

file must be created if the baud rate is anything other than

9600. The

com.conf

file is located in the vt100 directory and a sample is

shown in Figure 3-8.

com.conf file

Creating the

com.conf

file allows you to adjust the following values.

IXON

allows you to stop host output by sending ASCII DC3, and restart host

output by sending ASCII DC1.

IXON

prevents input queue overflow.

IXOFF

requests that the host send start/stop characters when the input queue

is nearly empty or full.

IXOFF

prevents host input queue overflow.

IXON and IXOFF prevent queue overflow. If both are set and the host or
terminal sends more information than their respective queues can handle, the
communication port stops the data flow. When the queue gets down to a
manageable level, the communication port resumes the flow of information.
