[comp.terminals] Help needed with wyse-85

nmm@apss.ab.ca (Neil McCulloch) (11/14/88)

I want to download to a wyse-85 function key definitions. The user manual
says the sequence is: DCS c;kl|kc/hc ST.

Forgive my ignorance, but what are the sequences for DCS and ST?

Thanks!

I just bought a CIT-101, however there was no manual with it so I am at
a lost on how to use some of it's special features.  So if some one out 
there has a manual or some infromation on how to get such a manual please
e-mail or phone me. The terminal was manufactured May '84.
Also if someone could post or mail me a way to save my setups even after I turn
off the terminal and turn it back on, in paticular the baud rate for 
transmision and receive for the terminal.  


Phone (303) 499-4901
e-mail davidsok@tramp.Colorado.EDU

Thank you in advance for the Help.	Kenneth Davidson

From article <589@apss.apss.ab.ca>, by nmm@apss.ab.ca (Neil McCulloch):
> ... but what are the sequences for DCS and ST?

According to the DEC "VT 220 Programmer Pocket Guide",
	"DCS is an 8-bit control character that can also be expressed as
	ESC P when coding for a 7-bit environment."

	"ST is an 8-bit .... ESC / for 7-bit"

also, you might want to know:

	"CSI is an 8-bit ... ESC [ for 7-bit"

Of course, if you're using 8 bits instead of 7, use this:

				octal	decimal		hex
DCS				220	144		90
ST				234	156		9C
CSI				233	155		9B

> Thanks!

No problem; I hope it helps!

	Oh, for shame; how can you have a VT-220 clone without knowing
the above escape sequences? :-)

	DCS is <ESC><P>, and ST is <ESC><\>.  And in case it strikes
you later, CSI is <ESC><[>.

Some older (I think) VT220 Programmer's Manual states that ST is <ESC></>.
The correct version is <ESC><\>, though.
