Escape sequences
BIOS Serial Console enables you to manually input unsupported keystrokes by entering escape
sequences. Each character must be entered within 2 seconds of pressing and holding down the
Esc key to emulate the escape sequence.
NOTE: You must use escape sequences if the emulation program does not support function keys,
but they also work if the emulation program does support function keys. To determine whether you
can use function keys, see the terminal emulation guide.

Character translations in VT100 mode
The VT100 protocol does not support special characters such as line draw characters. These
characters are translated so that they can be displayed on the VT100 screen. Character translation
is used for improved VT100 screen display and has no effect on functionality of BIOS Serial
Console.
