XON n

Mode: All Default: $11


Parameters:

n 0 to $7F, specifying an ASCII character code.


This command selects the MFJ-1278B Restart character, which is sent by the MFJ-1278B to
the computer or terminal to restart input from that device. You can enter the code in either
hex or decimal.

This character would ordinarily be set to for computer data transfers. If you are
operating your station in Converse Mode, and there is some chance that you might fill up the
MFJ-1278B's buffers, you might set this character to ($07), which rings a bell on
many terminals.
