HP 700-92/96 Emulation
Modify All - F2
This is similar to the Line Modify F1 function described previously, the only
difference being that the editing mode is not exited when Return or Enter is pressed.
F2 and its equivalent button acts as a toggle key, switching the mode on or off. The
setting may be saved by selecting Save Session in the File menu.
The F2 Modify All key and button enables you to edit and retransmit an incorrectly
entered command string when the emulation is in Character mode. This saves you
having to retype the entire string again.
Note: This will not function when the emulation is in Block or
Format mode.
When the host causes an error message to be displayed indicating that the string has
been incorrectly entered, press the F2 key. An asterisk will appear on the button
indicating that the function is selected. Move the cursor to the line containing the
error, edit the line then press Return or Enter. This will cause the edited string to be
transmitted. To exit Modify All mode, press F2 or click the button again.
Note: Even though this function is a special form of Block mode it
is completely separate from it and you do not need to enable
Block mode before using the Modify All function.
Block Mode - F3
Data may be transmitted to the host a character at a time or as a block of characters.
The F3 key and equivalent button toggles the form of data transmission between
Character mode and Block mode. The setting may be saved by selecting Save
Session in the File menu.
The emulation is in Character mode when the button does not display an asterisk.
Each character will be sent to the host as it is entered at the keyboard.
When Block mode is activated (as indicated by an asterisk), data entered at the
keyboard will not be sent to the host until the Enter key is pressed. In this mode,
displayed text may be edited locally before it is transmitted to the host. Control codes
such as CR (carriage return) and LF (line feed) are acted upon locally and are not
transmitted to the host when Enter is pressed.
Remote Mode - F4
The current setting of this button determines whether pressing an alphanumeric key
causes a character to be sent to the host (remote) or only to the display (local). The
button and F4 key toggles between Remote mode and Local mode. The setting may
be saved by selecting Save Session in the File menu.
The emulation is in Local mode when the button does not display an asterisk.
Pressing alphanumeric keys will cause characters to be sent to the display only.
When Remote mode is activated (as indicated by an asterisk), pressing alphanumeric
keys will cause characters to be sent to the host.
