24 Getting Familiar With Your BASIC Interface Software
User Window The user window is the client area where the data received via the
port is displayed. There is a vertical scroll bar on the right side of the
window and a horizontal scroll bar on the bottom of the window. The
vertical scroll bar lets you view data that has scrolled off the viewable
page. The horizontal scroll bar lets you view data that exceeds the
width of the user window. Up to 128 characters can be displayed per
line. If more than 128 characters are received in one line, BASIC
software will automatically wrap the line to the next line.
You can view up to 1000 lines of data using BASIC software. If the
terminal emulator session exceeds more than 1000 lines, then the
oldest lines are discarded, while the newest 1000 lines are retained.
