ISI3334/4 Hardware/Driver Installation Manual

Each character in the escape sequence or hot key can be specified

as an ASCII character if it is printable. If not printable, then it should

be specified in an octal format with leading 0's, if needed, and

preceded by a “\”. For example, an ASCII escape character can be

specified as “\033”.

Do not switch the screen while outputting as it may break the escape

sequence sent to the terminal. When there is more than one virtual

screen, all outputs from the inactive virtual screens will be blocked.

The virtual screen the user is currently working on is the only active

screen.

The fullest potential of Multi_View is realized on a multiscreen

terminal; however, Multi_View can be used on a dumb terminal that

has only a single page of memory. When there is only one page, the

screen output is unavoidably garbled from different virtual screen

outputs.

Some important ASCII unprintable characters and their octal values

are listed below.

SOH (^a) \001 STX (^b) \002

ETX (^c) \003 EOT (^d) \004

ENQ (^e) \005 ACK (^f) \006

ESC (^[) \033 Newline (NL) \012

Carriage

Return (CR) \015

Some known limitations are presented in the following listing:

• No null characters are allowed in the hot keys.

• No hot key can be a complete substring of another hot key.
