Chapter 6: Mini-Controller Configuration
ANSI/Telnet
When Page Saving Consider Double Byte Character is enabled, Page Saving will
replace any orphaned double byte character half with a space to prevent modified
characters and truncated data from being displayed on the terminal.
The default value is disabled.
Note: This option should only be used when using double byte character sets.
RLE
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 uses run-length encoding (RLE) on the data it
sends across the radio link. RLE compresses repeated characters going from the host
to the terminal. If repeated characters are found in the data stream, the first one is
sent, followed by a short escape sequence (3 or 4 characters) which tells the terminal
how many times to repeat this character. In this way RLE compresses the data and
decreases the total amount of radio-link traffic.
Convert 7 to 8 Bits
If this parameter is enabled, the 9150 converts 7-bit control sequences to their 8-bit
equivalents in ANSI data streams going to the terminals. This replaces two-charac-
ter escape sequences with a single equivalent character, compressing the data.
6.4.5.2 Protocol Options
This page differs depending on the type of emulation and protocol selected in the
General Host Options page. When you select the emulation/protocol combination of
ANSI/Telnet for this host the 9150 displays the version of the Protocol Options
screen shown on page 184.
