COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
Control of the Digital232 is implemented with 17 commands, described here in
detail. Examples are given for many of the commands using an IBM PC and the
"dumb terminal" program described in Appendix C. The underlined portion of the
example refers to text which is typed into the PC when the program is running. It is
implied that each command is terminated by the ''RETURN' key on the PC in order to
execute the command.
When the Digital232 receives multiple commands before receiving a terminator
or Execute command, the accumulated commands are executed in the following
order:
