ESC Pass Codes

There are 'escape' codes in the pass mode. These codes can switch the display mode or exit pass

mode. The following 'escape' codes are defined.

Notes on Specific Telnet/Terminal Clients

Telnet and terminal clients will have different behaviors in some situations. This section states

some of the known anomalies.

Windows

TM

client programs

Anomalies occur when using a Windows client if you are not typing standard ASCII characters (i.e.

using the keypad and the ALT key to enter decimal codes). Most programs will allow you to enter

specific decimal codes by holding ALT and using keypad numbers.

For example, hold ALT, hit the keypad 1, then hit keypad 0, then release ALT. The standard line

feed code is entered (decimal 10). Windows will perform an ANSI to OEM conversion on some

codes entered this way because of the way Windows handles languages and code pages.

The following codes are known to be altered, but others may be affected depending on the

computer's setup.

Characters 15, 21, 22, and any characters above 127.

This affects both Windows Telnet and Terminal programs.
