Error Correcting Message : ARQ
This is the message your modem will return in the CONNECT
string if an error correcting connection is established.
The default is ARQ, but other common error connecting
messages are REL, LAPM, MNP, etc. You should consult
modem's manual to find out the particular message it will
return. You should note that TriBBS will recognize many of
the most common error correcting messages even if this field
isn't correctly set.
Lock Serial Port........ : No <- This is a toggle field
By default, TriBBS will not lock the serial port. When a
serial port isn't locked, TriBBS will adjust the serial
port's baud rate to match the baud rate that is returned in
the CONNECT string. If this field is toggled to "Yes",
TriBBS will maintain a constant baud rate. Thus, the serial
port's baud rate will stay at the "Initial Baud Rate" speed.
If your BBS has an error correcting modem, you should lock
your serial port to achieve all off the benefits of an error
correcting connection. You should note that your modem must
be properly configured with an AT command to support a
locked baud rate.
RTS/CTS Flow Control.... : No <- This is a toggle field
By default, TriBBS only uses XON/XOFF flow control to
control the sending and receiving of data with the remote
computer. If this field is toggled to "Yes", TriBBS will
initiate RTS/CTS flow control between the computer and the
modem. This is essential for reliable operation with an
error correcting modem. You should note that your modem
