Printer Modifiers

RSIZE n

Although the record size for a SWAN/SWAN 2 concentrator is specified by default, you

have the option of specifying the record size for documentation purposes. If you

specify RSIZE for a SWAN/SWAN 2 concentrator, you must specify RSIZE 80.

SISO

This modifier allows 8-bit code characters to be transmitted in a 7-bit code

communications environment. Eight-bit character sets are useful for foreign language

and graphics applications. This feature is provided for conversational-mode and 6530

block-mode communications only; it can be modified through SETMODE function 110.

Because SISO affects throughput, do not specify SISO unless it is required.

SPACINGPOST

This modifier specifies that the system is to add a CR and an LF character to the end

of a line of text sent to the terminal.

STARTBOOT

This modifier specifies that, when the system is loaded, the LIU is not automatically

downloaded but is left in the boot state. This modifier must be used with

STARTDOWN.

STARTDOWN

This modifier specifies that, when the system is loaded, the LIU is not logically started

but is left in the stopped state. This modifier must be used with STARTBOOT.
