"SETAUX.ARC" Version 2.0 Submitted to DECUS library 3/87 by David Mitchell Operating System: MS-DOS V2.05, 2.11, 2.11-1 MS-DOS MACRO Keywords: Data Communications Auxilliary Port Abstract: This program was written to facilitate the needs of an environment where there is more than one setting ( i.e. - transmit and receive baud rates, parity, stop bits and data bits) of the communications (auxilliary) port required. This will generally mean that there is more than one device connected to the port through whatever means desired, either manually or software selectable. Version 2.0 now supports two new functions. Entering "SETAUX R" will reset the port to NVM settings and clear any garbage which may be interfering with communications. Entering "SETAUX D" will display the current settings of the port on the CRT. This program supports what I believe to be the most common settings of each of the above mentioned parameters. It will generally be used in batch files and where pressing the SET-UP key or running SET-PORT is not possible. The documentation is built into the program and may be accessed by entering the program name with no parameters. The program features error checking which will determine if enough parameters have been supplied and if the parameters supplied constitute a legal setting.
