The setting of this option determines how keyboard entered data is sent to the host and displayed
on the screen.
◦
Echo mode, keyboard entered data is sent only to the host. The host is then responsible for
returning the data to the display.
◦
Character mode, keyboard entered data is sent simultaneously to the host and the display.
◦
Block mode, keyboard entered data is displayed and processed locally, allowing you to
edit it before a block of data is sent to the host.
●

This specifies what is reported back to the host in response to a terminal identification request. The
