baud rate 
Sets the speed of communications when the workstation or PC is 
connected to the host over an asynchronous line. (The baud rate setting is 
ignored on a Multilan connection.) The setting must match the host 
system end. Values are: 
Set baud rate with the Esc v H sequence. For conversational mode,
see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc v)” on page 2-30. For block 
mode, see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc v)” on page 3-59.
bell column
Specifies the column on the display screen in which the bell will sound 
when the cursor passes through it. It is typically used to alert the user 
when the cursor is approaching the right margin. The value can be set to 
column 0-80. A value of 0 disables the feature. Set with the Esc v B 
sequence. For conversational mode, see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc 
v)” on page 2-30. For block mode, see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc 
v)” on page 3-59.
bell volume
Enables (ON) or disables (OFF) the bell. In addition to the bell column 
feature, the bell is used by the 6530 or a host application program to 
audibly indicate some condition such as an error. Set with the Esc v C 
sequence. For conversational mode, see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc 
v)” on page 2-30. For block mode, see “Set Terminal Configuration (Esc 
v)” on page 3-59.
character set
ISO 646 - ISO 8859/1.2 compliant, with 8-bit extensions available. (This 
is a read-only parameter.)
character size
Sets the number of bits used to define characters transmitted between the 
workstation/PC and the host system. The setting must be the same at both 
the workstation/PC and the host. Set with the Esc v V0 sequence (7 bits) 
or the Esc v V1 sequence (8 bits). For conversational mode, see “Set 
Terminal Configuration (Esc v)” on page 2-30. For block mode, see “Set 
Terminal Configuration (Esc v)” on page 3-59.
