1 SET 2 ECHO Sets the echo character. Use this command if either your terminal or the remote system does not recognize the default echo character. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new echo character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET ECHO "^character" UNIX Format set echo "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the echo character. 3 Example TELNET> SET ECHO "^m" Echo character is '^M'. Sets the echo control character to either m or M. 2 ERASE Sets the erase character. The erase character deletes, either locally or remotely, the last character in the type-ahead buffer. (This character has no effect in binary mode.) Use this command if either your terminal or the remote system does not recognize the default erase character, the Delete key. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new erase character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET ERASE "^character" UNIX Format set erase "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the erase character. 3 Example TELNET> SET ERASE "^P" Erase character is '^p'. Sets the erase control character to either p or P. 2 ESCAPE Sets the escape character. The escape character returns you to the TELNET prompt. When you run multiple sessions, you can set different escape sequences for each connection. Use this command if either your terminal or the remote system does not recognize the default escape character, Ctrl/]. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new escape character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET ESCAPE "^character" UNIX Format set escape "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the escape character. 3 Example TELNET> SET ESCAPE "^P" Escape character is '^p'. Sets the escape control character to either p or P. 2 FLUSHOUTPUT Sets the flush output character. Use this command if either your terminal or the remote host does not recognize the default flush output character, Ctrl/O. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new flush output character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET FLUSHOUTPUT "^character" UNIX Format set flushoutput "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the flush output character. 3 Example TELNET> SET FLUSHOUTPUT "^P" Flush output character is '^p'. Sets the flush output control character to either p or P. 2 INTERRUPT Sets the interrupt character. The interrupt character clears the input and output paths to the remote host. The remote host interrupts the program that is processing. (This character has no effect in binary mode.) Use this command if either your terminal or the remote host does not recognize the default interrupt character, Ctrl/C. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new interrupt character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET INTERRUPT "^character" UNIX Format set interrupt "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the interrupt character. 3 Example TELNET> SET INTERRUPT "^a" Interrupt character is '^A'. Sets the interrupt control character to either a or A. 2 KILL Sets the kill character. The kill character discards, both locally and remotely, the entire type-ahead buffer. (This character has no effect in binary mode.) Use this command if either your terminal or the remote host does not recognize the default kill character, Ctrl/U. Enter the following sequence of characters: 1. Opening quotation marks 2. A circumflex ( ^ ) 3. The new kill character 4. Closing quotation marks DCL Format SET KILL "^character" UNIX Format set kill "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the kill character. 3 Example TELNET> SET KILL "^q" Kill character is '^Q'. Sets the kill control character to either q or Q. 2 MODE Sets the mode of transmission. The mode of transmission can be either character mode or line mode. Character mode is the default. Use character mode when you run a character-processing text editor on the remote host. With character mode, your local system sends data a character at a time to the remote host with which you have a connected session, and the remote host echoes the characters back for display on your local system. (Sometimes several characters may be sent in a burst for performance optimization, in which case the remote server usually replies with bursts of characters, but not a line at a time.) To use line mode, the remote host server must support line mode. The local host echoes characters. Line mode allows the following: o Signal trapping (such as for application programs on remote UNIX hosts that sense traps or special events) o Local character editing o Tab expansion (where a tab is more than simply the TAB character) This command overrides the ENABLE LOCAL_CHARS command. Before you enter this command, establish a remote connection. DCL Format SET MODE {CHAR | LINE} UNIX Format mode mode 3 Parameters CHAR LINE Required. Transmission mode you want to set. Specify either of the following: o CHAR - Data is transmitted one character at a time. o LINE - Data is transmitted one line at a time. 2 QUIT Sets the quit character, an alternate interrupt character. DCL Format SET QUIT "^character" UNIX Format set quit "^character" 3 Parameters "^character" Required. Character you want to use as the quit character. 3 Example TELNET> SET QUIT "^i" Quit character is '^I'. Sets the alternate interrupt control character to either i or I. 2 TERMINAL Sets the default terminal type for future TELNET or TN3270 connections. Format SET TERMINAL /DEVICE=type 3 Qualifiers /DEVICE /DEVICE=type Required. Terminal model. Specify one of the following: o A terminal model. o An IBM terminal to emulate. Enter the full specification for one of the following: - IBM-3278-2 - IBM-3278-3 - IBM-3278-4 - IBM-3278-5 3 Example TELNET> SET TERMINAL/DEVICE=IBM-3278-2 Terminal type is set to IBM-3278-2 TELNET> Runs TN3270. The terminal is emulating an IBM 3278-2 model terminal.
