SETAUX V2.0
Rainbow 100 Communications Port Modifier
(C) COPYRIGHT 1986 by David N. Mitchell; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
WARNING !!!
- Do NOT use this program in
conjunction with the Set-Up key on the Rainbow. They do not
interact at all, i.e. - anything set with one will not be
reflected by the other. The reason for this seems to be that
when writing the firmware functions which control the Set-Up key,
DEC did not attempt to read and write to the same locations that
MS-DOS uses for reading or modifying the port. If you set the
port with Set-Up and then try to read the settings with this
program, you will most likely NOT get the correct settings.
Any questions or comments pertaining to the use of this program
should be sent to:

For information on how to use the program, simply enter the
program name with no parameters. The program is very useful for
applications where, for one reason or another the comm. port
set-up needs to be changed under program control. There are two
new functions in this version, the most useful of which is the
reset function. If your port gets jammed or clogged, this
function will reset and clear the port. The following is what
you see when you execute the program with no parameters :

The "SETAUX" program now supports two new functions : "SETAUX D" will
display the current settings of the port and "SETAUX R" will reset the
port to the NVM settings and clear the port. The display and set functions
only support the options listed below. Once changed by the program, these
settings will NOT be reflected in the modem set-up screen accessed through
the Rainbow SET-UP key. The following is a list of supported settings to be
passed in the order listed along with the actual parameters in parentheses.
NO intervening spaces are allowed between parameters !
STOP BITS : 1 (1) 1.5 (2) 2 (3)
DATA BITS : 5 (1) 6 (2) 7 (3) 8 (4) 7S (5) 7M (6)
PARITY : EVEN (1) ODD (2) NONE (3)
