5.1 Protocol Converter 3101 and VT100 (continued)
Data Stream
- Works only with Data-Stream microcode versions above 2.0. (A ROM upgrade may be required)
Data Lynx
-
Do not
load TERMLYNX TSR software (grabs COMM port interrupt) or use program
UNCLINK to cause TSR to release COMM port (program CLINK re-establishes it for TSR).
-otherwise works well as 3101
Micom
-channel attached (sends data to screen out of sequence) (may need DIALOG LINEDROP to
disconnect)
-XON may be configured as end-of-message on some models (this should be changed to CR)
-7400-74016 model cannot upload faster than 2400 baud. To use 9600 for both up/download set
KEYDELAY in configuration to 4 millisecs
-download clean at speeds up to 9600 baud
Renex
-fast
-RTD model works. Uses Esc Esc sequences for native mode controls. For 3101 still uses
EscEsc R for reset (but Esc L for clear).
-handles up to 9600 bps upload when channel attached
Lee Data
-Model 8010 allow upload at 9600
-works up/download at 2400bps -- no problems as 3101
-^Z as clear key
-will pass { as data byte
CXT
- Not tested yet
Black Box
-Model A/C(3B) (ASCII to coax) required KEYDELAY of 50 millisecs to prevent losing data
on upload. No flow control.
-Model ??? (370x connected) is reputed to be running OK somewhere
Carterphone
-to date, we have not gotten data transfer through this box
Simware’s VT100 protocol converter
-Simware has mainframe software (VTAM, VM, etc) that functions as a protocol converter.
Rabbit VT100 protocol converter software
-runs as VT100 only (no 3101)
-runs on IBM RT under Unix using DFT coax connect to host and multiple serial inputs
-must configure for VT100 with AUTOWRAP = 2. The Rabbit software sends CRs and means
just that -- CR
