The B150 series terminals should be properly in stalled in accordance with procedures outlined in Section II of this manual. 3.3 FUNCTION KEY OPERATIONS

Figures 3-1 and 3-2 provide the codes, or escape sequences to be generated. The sequence of operation for each Control function type of code selected by the operator is deter when generated from the keyboard or when received mined by the key or sequence of the keys which from the I/O port Table 3-1 depicts the ASCII codes have been depressed. There are three keys that for each Control function. Control and Escape are used in a sequence with any alphanumeric key: codes generated at the keyboard by depressing the function keys are single 8-bit codes. The Control To perform an Escape operation, depress and and Escape codes generated as a Control or Escape release the BSC key, followed by the desig code sequence at the keyboard or received at the nated alphanumeric key (see Figure 3-2).

The B162 Terminal The B160 Terminal

The B160/B162 terminal Is a self-contained operator/computer acces sible, remote video display terminal designed for compabiiity with the DEC hardware and ADMINS software. The B160/B162 offers com municative cursor keys with all keyboard key codes being transmittabla In addition, the B160/B162 offers blink and editing modes of operation with a data transfer rate from 75 to 19,200 baud, aswell as 16 special function keys. The function keys for the B160/B162 transmit special codes and also have special legends engraved on the key caps. See the ASCII code chart and the keyboard layout drawing on the following pages for reference to these features. The bell in the B160/B162 terminals will not sound on the 72nd char acter position and can only be activated by a receipt of a CONTROL G command from either the I/O port or the keyboard. The B160/B162 terminals are intended to operate in a full duplex or conversational mode only. The terminals will, however, operate in half duplex, block, or local modes, but will exhibit behaviorthat, from an operator's point of view, could be interpreted as a terminal failure. For example, the cursor movement keys as well as other keys on the 16-key pad will not act on the display when in any of these modes. These keys do not produce a code that the terminal itself acts upon, but transmits the codes to a computer, from which they are returned to the terminal to be displayed. Only in full duplex is the terminal capable of receiving and displaying in this fashion. The following features as described in the general text of this manual are not included as features of the B160/B162 terminals: Insert/delete character Block send/line send Bell on 72nd character position Block/half duplex modes Format mode ASCII CODE CHART
