Actually, there is a standard. Its the DEC VTxxx programmer's manuals.

I can tell you that it does not work with 3.14 nor has it worked with
any version of MS-DOS Kermit that I have had in the last two years.
The only solution you have is to spend $45 and purchase Ray Gwinn's SIO
Fossil Drivers and his VMODEM product.

You ask no more than anyone else, you just want software that works.
All we ask is that you purchase the manual.
