Scroll
This parameter determines how the scrolling function will work when the ProMotion
displays a character in the last display position (lower right corner). Available options are
LAST CHR and LAST CHR+1.
When set to LAST CHR, the screen will scroll up one line and position the cursor in the first
column of the last line (lower left corner) after displaying a character in the last display
position.
When set to LAST CHR+1, the screen will scroll up one line and position the cursor in the
second column of the last line after displaying a character in the last display position and
receiving the next displayable character from the host.
If the ProMotion receives a control code or an escape command that alters the cursor
position, the cursor will remain at the last position and the pending scroll condition canceled.
View Angle (Contrast)
This parameter adjusts the viewing angle for various environmental conditions based on
contrast midpoint (which is set when you restore factory defaults). There are 16 available
settings: MIN, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, MID, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and MAX. The default value is MID.
Notes: Should you use host control, there are only eight available settings.
You can also adjust the
contrast by pressing
CTRL
and
F5
.
