Changing the linefeed settings

or outgoing data, you may instruct DSView to automatically insert a line after
each line of data. This prevents overwriting data when a new line is received.
To change the linefeed settings:
1. Select Options - Session Properties from the menu bar.
- or -
Click the Session Settings icon in the toolbar.
2. Click the Terminal tab.
3. If the New Line Mode - Inbound box is checked, an inbound carriage
return from the device will be treated as if both a carriage return and
a linefeed were received. If not checked, a linefeed is not added to an
inbound carriage return.
