XON n

Mode: All Default: $11


Parameters:

n 0 to $7F, specifying an ASCII character code.


This command selects the MFJ-1278B Restart character, which is sent by the MFJ-1278B to
the computer or terminal to restart input from that device. You can enter the code in either
hex or decimal.

This character would ordinarily be set to <CTRL-Q> for computer data transfers. If you are
operating your station in Converse Mode, and there is some chance that you might fill up the
MFJ-1278B's buffers, you might set this character to <CTRL-G> ($07), which rings a bell on
many terminals.
