Append Linefeed Setting

This parameter determines whether a linefeed

LF

control character (0x0A) will be

appended to any carriage return

CR

control character (0x0D) that is sent to the OIT from

the host controller. If enabled, this will cause the cursor of the OIT display to move

down to the next line of the display when a

CR

is received from the host. This feature is

useful when using controllers which can send ASCII strings followed by a

CR

control

character but are unable to append the

LF

control character to any ASCII string sent.

Without sending a

LF

control character, the host is forced to display characters on the

OIT screen on one line of the display only. This feature allows any host that is unable to

send the

LF

control character to use all of the lines of the OIT display.

Factory Default: Disabled

Interactive mode. If enabled, each character sent to the host controller from an OIT

keypress is also sent to the OIT’s display.
Factory Default: Enabled
