Chapter 3 - Configuration
3.6.1 Configuring Software for the Remote System
You must meet the requirements of the remote system for successful
communications. Though the MT2834 can automatically synchronize with
the speed of the other modem, you must specify parameters such as type
of flow control, break length, number of data bits, number of stop bits, and
parity. If you set these parameters incorrectly with the remote system,
gibberish will appear on your screen.
3.6.2 Terminal Emulation
If you are accessing the remote computer as if from an on-site terminal, the
keyboard codes used by your computer may not match the ones used by
the remote computer. To be compatible with the remote computer, your
software must be able to substitute the appropriate codes in what is known
as terminal emulation. Most communications programs can emulate the
most common mainframe terminals, including the DEC VT100, VT 102,
and VT52 terminals, and the basic TTY mode. The following is the
MultiExpress for Windows Terminal Emulation screen.
