Manual Configuration
14
Key Click
This parameter enables/disables the ProMotion’s ability to emit an audible click each time a
key is pressed, and for each repeated character. The default value is DISABLE.
KNP Function
The Key Not Press (KNP) parameter enables/disables the ProMotion’s ability to detect the
release of a key press. When set to ENABLE, the ProMotion will transmit the keypad
character or function key data after a key press and a null (00h) character after a key release.
The default value is DISABLE.
Note:
Should you enable the KNP function (disabled by default), the Repeat parameter will
not be accessible.
Cursor
This parameter enables/disables the ProMotion’s ability to display a rectangular cursor at the
next character position. The default value is ENABLE.
Cursor Blink
This parameter enables/disables the cursor‘s ability to blink at a steady rate. The default
value is ENABLE.
XON/XOFF
This parameter enables/disables the ProMotion’s ability to control data flow with
XON/XOFF protocol (i.e., When the receiving device is ready to receive data, it sends an
XON signal to the sending device. When its buffer is full, the receiving device then sends an
XOFF message to the sending device, which stops sending data). The default value is
DISABLE.
Handshake
This parameter enables/disables use of handshake lines (DTR-DSR or RTS-CTS) for
ProMotions with an RS-232 interface. The default value is DISABLE.
When enabled, the ProMotion informs the host when it can and cannot accept data and vice
versa. The Handshake-Out line is the signal to the host, and the Handshake-In line is the
signal from the host.
If you enable both XON/XOFF and Handshake parameters, Handshaking has priority. For
example, the ProMotion cannot send an XON/XOFF command to the host if the Handshake-
In line is false (low).
